Allopregnanolone increases growth and changes gene activity in human brain cancer cells.

Lack or blocking of SRD5a, a key component in hormone creation, can lead to conditions like pseudohermaphrodism and affect hair growth, bone mass, muscle strength, and reproductive health. More research is needed on its regulation from fertilization to adulthood.

Avicequinone C, a compound found in the Avicennia marina plant, can reduce hair loss by inhibiting a hormone linked to androgenic alopecia.

The enzymes 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase help create brain-active substances from progesterone and testosterone, which could be used for treatment, but more research is needed to ensure their safety and effectiveness.

Oncogenic K-ras causes rapid cancerous changes in the mouth's lining.

The skin acts like an endocrine organ, making hormones that affect skin diseases and respond to stress.

Testosterone changes important cell communication proteins in pregnant rats' uteruses, which might affect pregnancy success.

Pediatricians should advise sexually active teens on safe sex and STD prevention, and discuss contraceptive options and their side effects.

TLR2 is important for hair growth and can be targeted to treat hair loss.

Dicer is crucial for hair growth in mice.

Carbamates may help treat androgen-dependent conditions by changing how certain lipid enzymes are produced.

Acupuncture may improve reproductive and metabolic functions in PCOS without negative side effects, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.

Testosterone, progesterone, and levonorgestrel change enzyme levels related to fat production in hamster skin, which could affect skin oil and acne.

Blocking glucocorticoid receptors improves glucose metabolism in a PCOS mouse model.

Dexamethasone affects hair growth by altering levels of proteins that either promote or inhibit hair follicle growth.

Hair follicle stem cells and mitochondria are key for hair growth, and targeting their activity could lead to new hair loss treatments.

Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues. Herbal remedies also have antiandrogenic effects but lack safety validation.

Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.

Dexamethasone increases the activity of androgen receptors in human skin cells, which may link it to certain types of hair loss.

18β-glycyrrhetinic acid from licorice root is good for skin and hair treatments but has absorption challenges.

The engineered yeast strain BLYAS can quickly and sensitively detect androgenic chemicals.

SARMs may be an effective treatment for a certain type of breast cancer by blocking cancer growth and spread.

Krt15+ cells in the mouse intestine resist radiation and can start tumors.

MicroRNAs are important for hair growth regulation, with Dicer being crucial and Tarbp2 less significant.

Lack of Crif1 in hair follicle stem cells slows down hair growth in mice.

GDNF helps grow hair and heal skin wounds by acting on hair stem cells.

Deoxycholic acid is FDA-approved for reducing submental fat, but its mechanisms are not fully understood.

Cells lacking the Bax protein can outcompete others, leading to better tissue repair and hair growth.

TLR2 helps control hair growth and regeneration, and its reduction with age or obesity can impair hair growth.

Sex steroids, especially progesterone, can slow down the growth of mouse melanoma cells.
