DHT may increase the risk of heart disease and death in elderly men.
research Dihydrotestosterone-Induced Hair Regrowth Inhibition by Activating Androgen Receptor in C57BL6 Mice Simulates Androgenetic Alopecia
DHT stops hair regrowth in mice, similar to human hair loss.
research Is the Comb Over Dying? A Mouse Model for Male Pattern Baldness (Androgenic Alopecia)
The mouse model suggests male pattern baldness may be due to an enzyme increasing DHT and higher androgen receptor levels in hair follicles.
research Associations Between Serum Dihydrotestosterone Levels, Lipid Parameters, and Anthropometric Measurements in Male Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Men with Type 2 Diabetes have lower DHT levels, which may affect fertility and lipid profiles.
research Regenerative Medicine Approaches for Engineering a Human Hair Follicle
New treatments for hair loss show promise, including plasma, stem cells, and hair-stimulating complexes, but more research is needed to fully understand them.
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 Effects of Finasteride (MK-906), a 5α-Reductase Inhibitor, on Circulating Androgens in Male Volunteers
Finasteride safely lowers DHT levels without affecting testosterone.
research Effect of Testosterone Supplementation With and Without a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor on Fat-Free Mass in Men With Suppressed Testosterone Production
Testosterone's muscle-building effects do not require its conversion to DHT.
research Efficacy of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections can effectively increase hair density and thickness in people with androgenic alopecia, without major side effects.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research The Role of Non-Aromatizable Testosterone Metabolite in Metabolic Pathways
Normal levels of DHT can reduce belly fat and increase muscle, but too much can lead to hair loss, prostate issues, and possibly heart disease.
research Cyanidin 3-O-Arabinoside Suppresses DHT-Induced Dermal Papilla Cell Senescence by Modulating p38-Dependent ER-Mitochondria Contacts
Cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside may help treat a common form of hair loss by protecting cells against aging and improving cell function.
research Discovery of Natural Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors
Natural herbal compounds might treat certain medical conditions by reducing DHT levels, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Steady-State Pharmacokinetics of Oral Testosterone Undecanoate with Concomitant Inhibition of 5α-Reductase by Finasteride
Finasteride doesn't affect oral testosterone undecanoate, and high DHT levels may cause acne, prostate issues, and hair loss.
research Effects of Long-Term Treatment With Finasteride (MK-906), a 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitor, on Circulating LH, FSH, Prolactin, and Estradiol
Finasteride safely lowers DHT levels without affecting hormone levels, helping with conditions like enlarged prostate, acne, and hair loss.
research Effect of MK-386, a Novel Inhibitor of Type 1 5 Alpha-Reductase, Alone and in Combination with Finasteride, on Serum Dihydrotestosterone Concentrations in Men
MK-386 and finasteride together effectively reduce DHT levels, potentially treating acne and male pattern baldness.
research Additive In Vivo Growth-Inhibitory Effects of Flutamide and Finasteride on Androgen-Sensitive Shionogi 115 Carcinoma
Combining flutamide and finasteride can reduce prostate weight and tumor growth, potentially benefiting treatments needing optimal DHT inhibition.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors: Progress and Therapeutic Potential
5α-reductase inhibitors help treat disorders caused by DHT and have potential for future therapies.
research A Curvilinear Relationship Between Hair Loss, Mental Rotation, and Neuroticism: A Possible Influence of Sustained Dihydrotestosterone Production
Men with moderate hair loss had the best spatial thinking, and long-term DHT might affect cognition.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for Screening Steroid 5-Alpha Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Serum Androgens and Prostate-Specific Antigen Levels in Androgenetic Alopecia: Is There a Difference Between Frontal and Vertex Baldness?
Vertex baldness has higher DHT levels than frontal baldness, but testosterone and PSA levels are similar.
research Platelet Rich Plasma Combination Therapies for Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia: A Systematic Review
Combining platelet-rich plasma with other treatments may improve hair growth in people with hair loss, but more research is needed.
