research Androgenic Alopecia: A Counterproductive Outcome of the Anabolic Effect of Androgens
Male pattern baldness is an unintended side effect of the body's use of androgens for muscle growth, especially in those genetically prone to it.
research Molecular Mechanisms of Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to DHT binding, and can be treated with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Transplants from Balding and Hairy Androgenetic Alopecia Scalp Regrow Hair Comparably Well on Immunodeficient Mice
Hair from balding and non-balding areas regrows similarly on mice.
research Peripheral Androgens And The Role Of Androstanediol Glucuronide
Androstanediol glucuronide is a reliable marker for hirsutism in women.
research Exploring the Neural Mechanisms of Finasteride: A Proteomic Analysis in the Nucleus Accumbens
Finasteride affects brain processes related to neurotransmission and metabolism, potentially helping with neuropsychiatric conditions.
research In Vivo Uptake and Metabolism of Testosterone by the Skin and Other Tissues of the Rat
Rat skin takes up and processes testosterone differently than other organs, with testosterone being more important for the skin than its metabolite 5α-DHT.
research Promotion Effect of Apo-9'-Fucoxanthinone from Sargassum Muticum on Hair Growth via the Activation of Wnt/β-Catenin and VEGF-R2
Sargassum muticum extract and its component apo-9'-fucoxanthinone may help hair growth and treat hair loss.
research A Comprehensive Review of Biochemical Factors in Herbs and Their Constituent Compounds in Experimental Studies on Alopecia
Herbs might help with hair loss, but more research is needed to confirm their safety and effectiveness.
research Bioequivalence of a Single 10-mg Dose of Finasteride 5-mg Oral Disintegrating Tablets and Standard Tablets in Healthy Adult Male Han Chinese Volunteers: A Randomized Sequence, Open-Label, Two-Way Crossover Study
Finasteride 5-mg oral disintegrating tablets and standard tablets are bioequivalent in healthy adult male Han Chinese volunteers.
research Gene Expression of Type 2 17β Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase in Scalp Hairs of Hirsute Women
Hirsute women have lower type 2 17β-HSD enzyme levels, which improve with treatment.
research Development and Validation of Spectrophotometric Method for Determination of Finasteride in Pharmaceutical Formulation Using 1,2-Naphthoquine-4-Sulfonate
New method accurately measures finasteride in medicine using NQS.
research Repurposing Existing Drugs for COVID-19: An Endocrinology Perspective
Existing drug dexamethasone may lower death risk in severe COVID-19 cases; more research needed for other drugs.
research The Experimental Study on the Effect of Herbal Extracts on Hair Growth and Acne
Rubus coreanum may help hair growth but not through the tested mechanisms, and none of the herbal extracts help with acne.
research Hair Follicles and Associated Glands as Androgen Targets
Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.
research Cyclic Dynamics of Hair Follicles and the Effect of Minoxidil on the Bald Scalps of Stumptailed Macaques
Minoxidil helps grow longer, thicker hair in bald scalps of stumptailed macaques, and early treatment is more effective.
research Early Postnatal Allopregnanolone Levels Alteration and Adult Behavioral Disruption in Rats: Implications for Drug Abuse
Changing allopregnanolone levels in baby rats affects their adult behavior and alcohol use.
research Finasteride-Associated Male Infertility
Finasteride may cause male infertility, stopping it can help.
research Expression of Sex-Determining Genes in the Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Sex-determining genes may affect male baldness.
research Sesquiterpene-Enriched Extract of Curcuma Aeruginosa Roxb. Retards Axillary Hair Growth: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind Study
Curcuma aeruginosa extract lotion significantly reduces underarm hair growth.
research Endocrine Functions of the Testes
The testes produce important hormones like testosterone and others that play key roles in male body functions.
research Steroidogenesis of the Testis: New Genes and Pathways
New genes and pathways are important for testosterone production and male sexual development.
research Role of Anticonvulsant and Antiepileptogenic Neurosteroids in the Pathophysiology and Treatment of Epilepsy
Neurosteroids show promise for treating epilepsy and more research is needed.
research Comparison of High-Dose Finasteride (5 mg/day) Versus Low-Dose Finasteride (2.5 mg/day) in the Treatment of Hirsutism
Low-dose finasteride effectively treats hirsutism, is safe, and cost-effective.
research HSD3B1 Genotypes Conferring Adrenal-Restrictive and Adrenal-Permissive Phenotypes in Prostate Cancer and Beyond
Certain HSD3B1 gene types are linked to worse prostate cancer outcomes and affect treatment response and other health conditions.
