This study found that dexamethasone significantly reduced ERα mRNA levels and increased aromatase mRNA and activity in cultured human hair follicle dermal papilla cells, suggesting a glucocorticoid-dependent mechanism for estradiol action.

This study describes an efficient gas chromatography-mass spectrometry method for detecting estrone and 17 beta-estradiol concentrations in hair, finding differing levels in male and female samples.

This review explores how estrogens influence skin health and attractiveness in women, particularly with aging, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found no support for the idea that male-pattern baldness in female-to-male transsexuals indicates an increased risk of coronary heart disease through androgenic effects on classic risk factors.

This study found that mahanimbicine and a crude extract of Murraya koenigii may enhance wound healing in rats by promoting faster wound contraction and higher collagen deposition.

This study found that 17β-estradiol inhibited RANTES production in human keratinocytes by suppressing nuclear factor κB activity, suggesting a potential mechanism for 17β-estradiol's modulation of psoriasis-related inflammation.

This study found that WNT10A is significantly upregulated in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and is associated with enhanced tumor cell migration, invasion, and poor survival.

This study found that testosterone modulates vascular cell behavior through direct actions that do not rely on its conversion to estradiol.

This article describes two cases where essential alopecia was the initial sign of syphilitic infection, examining the clinical and histopathologic features observed.

This study found that penile and clitoral differentiation in mice is influenced by androgen exposure, with penile features developing postnatally requiring prenatal and ongoing androgen presence.

This review discusses the role of estrogens in hair follicle cycling and the skin, highlighting the need for more research on estrogen signaling pathways and their interactions with other factors in hair biology.

This study found that C. obtusa oils promoted hair growth in shaved mice and increased the expression of a hair growth regulator, VEGF, in a cell line.

This study found that low doses of leuprolide effectively suppressed serum estradiol and LH response, while higher doses were needed to suppress testosterone and reduce hair growth in hirsute women.

In this study, women with hirsutism and amenorrhea showed lower serum estradiol and sex hormone binding globulin concentrations but higher levels of unbound testosterone compared to normal individuals.

This study found that using 3D dermal papilla spheroid models enhances extracellular matrix production and hair follicle marker expression, providing insights into hair follicle biology and potential for drug screening.

This article discusses the complexity of selecting hair cleansing products and conditioners and reports no new scientific findings or results.

This study found that testosterone is converted to estrogenic steroids in vitro without aromatase involvement, suggesting that combining 5α-reductase and aromatase inhibitors might reduce estrogenic steroids more completely in vivo.

This study observed that in vitro treatment of male frontotemporal scalp hair follicles with 17-β-estradiol stimulated hair shaft generation and hair matrix keratinocyte proliferation, suggesting potential anagen-prolonging effects.

This study found that essential fatty acid deficiency in rabbits leads to significant degeneration of gonadal tissue, possibly due to impaired anterior pituitary gland function.

This article summarizes findings on the role of androgens and estrogens in male reproductive tissues across species, highlighting the roles of hormone metabolism, receptor distribution, and stress-induced changes.

This study found that estrogen can cause reversible suppression of the hair cycle by inducing premature catagen and maintaining the telogen phase without damaging the hair follicle stem cell niche or the signature gene expressions of dermal papilla cells.

This study reported that while finasteride and progesterone significantly inhibited dihydrotestosterone synthesis in dermal papillae, estrogens were less effective.

In this study, prolonged systemic administration of 17β-estradiol in castrated male mice delayed wound healing by inhibiting re-epithelialization and reducing collagen accumulation, with estrogen receptor-α likely mediating this effect.

This study found that oral estradiol was generally effective in achieving target 17-β estradiol levels in transgender women, but often failed to suppress testosterone adequately, with variability in individual responses.

This study found that compound 2g inhibits steroid sulfatase effectively without exhibiting estrogenic activity, making it a promising candidate for breast cancer treatment.

In this retrospective study, cyproterone acetate treatment in late-pubertal trans-girls was found to be generally safe and led to mild feminizing effects, with more rapid feminization occurring when combined with estrogens.

In this animal study, rats given high doses of ethynylestradiol showed dose-related estrogenic effects, delayed tumor onset in females, and no overall increase in tumor incidence compared to controls.

This study established a 3D in vitro culture system of canine keratinocyte organoids to study epidermal function and address skin disorders in dogs, though additional growth factors are needed for hair follicle development.

This report describes a case of meningioma in a transwoman treated long-term with estradiol and cyproterone acetate, suggesting possible concern over female sex steroids and meningioma risk.

In this study, the authors reported that feeding cashmere goats with essential oil-cobalt significantly enhanced their growth, meat quality, and fiber quality, while stimulating immune-related physiological changes.
