The enzyme steroid sulfatase is linked to breast cancer and other conditions, and inhibitors are being developed for treatment.
research Sulfatase Inhibitors: A Patent Review
The document concludes that research on sulfatase inhibitors should continue due to their potential in treating various diseases, despite some clinical trial failures.
research Cross-Sex Hormone Therapy for Gender Dysphoria
Cross-sex hormone therapy is important for managing gender dysphoria and requires careful monitoring and healthcare provider education.
research Apocrine Sweat Gland Obstruction by Antiperspirants Allowing Transdermal Absorption of Cutaneous Generated Hormones and Pheromones as a Link to the Observed Incidence Rates of Breast and Prostate Cancer in the 20th Century
The document suggests that blocking sweat glands with antiperspirants might allow skin-generated hormones to be absorbed, possibly increasing breast and prostate cancer risk.
research Steroid Hormones: Overview and Medical Applications
Steroid hormones are crucial for body functions and have various medical uses, but their misuse can lead to dependence.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research A Review of Coumarin Derivatives in Pharmacotherapy of Breast Cancer
Coumarin derivatives show promise as anti-estrogenic agents for treating breast cancer, with some in clinical trials.
research Hair Cortisol in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

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 Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (17β-HSD3, 17β-HSD5, and 3α-HSD3) Inhibitors: Extragonadal Regulation of Intracellular Sex Steroid Hormone Levels
Certain inhibitors can potentially treat prostate cancer and other hormone-dependent conditions by controlling sex hormone levels in cells.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Redefining Hormone Resistance in Prostate Cancer
The conclusion suggests that prostate cancer should be classified by castration status and that new therapies targeting androgen receptor signaling show promise.
research Recent Advances in Drug Design and Drug Discovery for Androgen-Dependent Diseases
New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.
research Steroid Sulfatase Inhibitors: Therapeutic Applications and Development
Steroid Sulfatase inhibitors show promise in treating hormone-dependent disorders like cancers, hair loss, and acne, with 667COUMATE being a potential candidate for breast cancer treatment trials.
research Significant Effects of Mild Endogenous Hormonal Changes in Humans: Considerations for Low-Dose Testing
Small hormonal imbalances can cause significant health problems, so more sensitive testing for hormone-disrupting chemicals is needed.
research Lignans and Neolignans: Plant Secondary Metabolites as a Reservoir of Biologically Active Substances
Lignans and neolignans from plants may help protect against various health issues, including cancer and heart disease.
research Feather on the Cap of Medicine
Feathers are useful for researching growth, regeneration, and the effects of treatments like chemotherapy on hair loss.
research Androgens Trigger Different Growth Responses in Genetically Identical Human Hair Follicles in Organ Culture Reflecting Their Epigenetic Diversity in Life
Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.
research Early Dengue Virus Infection in Human Skin: A Cycle of Inflammation and Infectivity
Chicken feather gene mutation helps understand human hair disorders.
research The Efficacy of an Adjuvant Norethisterone (Jenapharm) Therapy in Endometrial Cancer
Norethisterone (jenapharm) therapy is effective for endometrial cancer.
research Vitamin D and Human Health: Lessons from Vitamin D Receptor Null Mice
Mice without the vitamin D receptor have bone issues and other health problems, suggesting vitamin D is important for preventing various diseases in humans.
research Hormone Therapy in the Treatment of Breast Cancer and Main Outcomes in Sexuality
Hormone therapy for breast cancer often leads to sexual issues like vaginal dryness and decreased libido.
research Doxil (Caelyx): An Exploratory Study with Pharmacokinetics in Patients with Hormone-Refractory Prostate Cancer
Doxil showed some effectiveness against advanced prostate cancer but caused severe side effects at higher doses.
research Gender-Affirming Hormone Therapy for Transgender Men
Testosterone therapy seems safe and effective for transgender men with proper care, but more long-term research is needed.
research Common Variants in the Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin Gene (SHBG) and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) in Mediterranean Women
Certain genetic variations in the SHBG gene are linked to an increased or decreased risk of PCOS in Mediterranean women.
research Skin Aging and Menopause: Implications for Treatment
Menopause can lead to skin and hair problems due to hormonal changes, but hormone replacement therapy might help slow these effects.
research Use of High-Dose Cyproterone Acetate and Risk of Intracranial Meningioma in Women: Cohort Study
