540-570 / 1000+ resultsresearch Understanding the Epidemiology, Natural History, and Key Pathways Involved in Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer was a major health issue in 2009, especially for Black men, and targeting the 5alpha-reductase enzyme could help in its prevention and treatment.
research Estrogen and Androgen Signaling in the Pathogenesis of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Hormonal interactions, especially involving DHT and estrogen, play a key role in BPH development and treatment.
research The Effects of Two Doses of Spironolactone on Serum Androgens and Anagen Hair in Hirsute Women
Spironolactone reduced hair thickness and some testosterone levels in women with excessive hair growth.
research Design, Synthesis, and Biological Characterization of Metabolically Stable Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators
Researchers developed new compounds that target the androgen receptor effectively with fewer side effects.
research Finasteride
Finasteride effectively treats baldness but may cause sexual side effects.
research Skeletal Site-Dependent Expression of the Androgen Receptor in Human Osteoblastic Cell Populations
Higher androgen levels and site-specific AR expression cause sex-related skeletal differences, and certain steroids can boost AR expression and androgen effects in bone cells.
research Molecular Basis of Androgenetic Alopecia: From Androgen to Paracrine Mediators Through Dermal Papilla
Male pattern baldness involves hormones and cell signals affecting hair growth.
research Effects of In Utero Exposure to Finasteride on Androgen-Dependent Reproductive Development in Male Rats
Exposure to finasteride in the womb caused lasting reproductive issues in male rats.
research Disorders Linked to Insufficient Androgen Action in Male Children
Insufficient androgen action in male fetuses can cause genital development issues due to genetic mutations or environmental chemicals.
research The Rationale for Inhibiting 5α-Reductase Isoenzymes in the Prevention and Treatment of Prostate Cancer
Inhibiting 5α-reductase can help reduce prostate cancer risk and improve treatment.
research Hormonal Effects on Hair Follicles
Hormones like testosterone and estrogen significantly affect hair growth and structure.
research Male Accessory Sex Glands
Male accessory sex glands in rats rarely develop tumors and respond to hormones.
research Endocrine Control of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Hormones and metabolism play a complex role in prostate enlargement, and more research is needed to improve diagnosis and treatment.
research 5α-Reductase Isozymes and Androgen Actions in the Prostate
5α‐reductase isozymes are crucial for prostate development and health, and targeting them can help prevent and treat prostate issues.
research Nonsteroidal Inhibitors of Human Type I Steroid 5α-Reductase
New compounds called benzoquinolinones may treat conditions linked to excess DHT.
research The Antiandrogenic Action of 4-Androsten-3-One-17β-Carboxylic Acid and Its Methyl Ester on Hamster Flank Organ
The chemicals 17βC and its methyl ester can block the effects of testosterone on hamster skin but not the effects of DHT.
research Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies a New Locus JMJD1C at 10q21 That May Influence Serum Androgen Levels in Men
A new gene, JMJD1C, may affect testosterone levels in men.
research Sex Hormones and Acne: The Role of the Skin as an Endocrine Organ
Sex hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in causing acne.
research Treatment of Hirsutism: Comparisons Between Different Antiandrogens with Central and Peripheral Effects
Finasteride, CPA, and flutamide are all equally effective in reducing excessive hair growth in women.
research Testosterone Metabolism in the Skin
Increased DHT formation in skin can cause hair loss, acne, and excessive hair growth, and antiandrogens might treat these conditions.
research The Effect of 5α-Reductase Inhibition With Dutasteride and Finasteride on Bone Mineral Density, Serum Lipoproteins, Hemoglobin, Prostate Specific Antigen, and Sexual Function in Healthy Young Men
Dutasteride and finasteride do not significantly affect bone density, blood fats, or blood production, but slightly lower PSA levels and minimally impact sexual function in healthy young men.
