research Use of Cyproterone Acetate in the Treatment of Acne, Hirsutism, and Virilism
Cyproterone acetate is effective for acne but less so for hirsutism and alopecia, with some side effects and quick menstrual cycle recovery after treatment.
research The 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3-Independent Actions of the Vitamin D Receptor in Skin
The vitamin D receptor helps regulate skin and hair health independently of its usual vitamin D ligand.
research Divergent Neuroactive Steroid Responses to Stress and Ethanol in Rat and Mouse Strains: Relevance for Human Studies
Stress and alcohol affect brain chemicals differently in rats, mice, and humans, influenced by genetic differences.
research Prolactin and Its Receptor Are Expressed in Murine Hair Follicle Epithelium, Show Hair Cycle-Dependent Expression, and Induce Catagen
Prolactin affects hair growth cycles and can cause early hair follicle regression.
research Estrogen Receptor Evaluation in Pomeranian Dogs with Hair Cycle Arrest (Alopecia X) on Melatonin Supplementation
Melatonin helped some Pomeranian dogs regrow hair, but it wasn't linked to estrogen receptors.
research Hair Steroid Profiling Reveals Racial Differences in Male Pattern Baldness Between Korean and Caucasian Populations
Korean and Caucasian men with male pattern baldness have different hair steroid levels.
research The Genetically Programmed Hair Growth Cycle And Alopecia: What Is There To Know?
The document concludes that hair loss is complex, affects many people, has limited treatments, and requires more research on its causes and psychological impact.
research Steroid Sulfatase: Molecular Biology, Regulation, and Inhibition
The enzyme steroid sulfatase is linked to breast cancer and other conditions, and inhibitors are being developed for treatment.
research Cells Within the Bulge Region of Mouse Hair Follicle Transiently Proliferate During Early Anagen: Heterogeneity and Functional Differences of Various Hair Cycles
Mouse hair follicle cells briefly grow during the early hair growth phase, showing that these cells are important for starting the hair cycle.
research Principles of Hair Cycle Control
Manipulating the catagen and telogen phases of hair growth could lead to treatments for hair disorders.
research Therapeutic Strategy for Hair Regeneration: Hair Cycle Activation, Niche Environment Modulation, Wound-Induced Follicle Neogenesis, and Stem Cell Engineering
The conclusion is that hair growth can be improved by activating hair cycles, changing the surrounding environment, healing wounds to create new hair follicles, and using stem cell technology.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase as a Novel Therapeutic Target for Schizophrenia and Other Neuropsychiatric Disorders
S5αR inhibitors might help treat schizophrenia and other mental disorders but need more research.
research Transcriptional Profiling in Alopecia Areata Defines Immune and Cell Cycle Control Related Genes Within Disease-Specific Signatures
The study found that immune responses disrupt hair growth cycles, causing hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Hair-Cycle-Dependent Expression of Parathyroid Hormone-Related Protein and Its Type I Receptor: Evidence for Regulation at the Anagen to Catagen Transition
Parathyroid hormone-related protein helps control hair growth phases in mice.
research Steroid Plant Hormones: Effects Outside the Plant Kingdom
Plant steroid hormones show growth, health, and medicinal benefits in various organisms, including potential for treating diseases.
research Retrospective Evaluation of Sex Hormones and Steroid Hormone Intermediates in Dogs with Alopecia
Most dogs with alopecia had higher than normal levels of certain hormones, but hair loss might not always be linked to these hormone changes.
research Structure of Human Steroid 5α-Reductase 2 with the Anti-Androgen Drug Finasteride
Finasteride irreversibly affects human steroid 5α-reductase 2, providing insight into its catalytic mechanism and disease-related mutations.
research In Vitro Main Pathways of Steroid Action in Cultured Hair Follicle Cells: Vascular Approach
Steroids, particularly estrogens and 5α-reductase inhibitors, affect blood vessel-related hair growth processes in hair follicle cells.
research Immune Cell Regulation of the Hair Cycle
Immune cells affect hair growth and could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Applications of Steroid Drugs Entrapped in Cyclodextrins
Cyclodextrins improve how steroid drugs work and are used in marketed medications and environmental applications.
research Consequences of Steroid-5α-Reductase Deficiency and Inhibition in Vertebrates
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.
research Selected Variants of the Steroid-5-Alpha-Reductase Isoforms SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 and the Sex Steroid Hormone Receptors ESR1, ESR2, and PGR: No Association with Female Pattern Hair Loss Identified
No link found between specific genes and female pattern hair loss.
research A New Label-Free Screen for Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Using LC-MS
Researchers developed a new method to find substances in herbs that can block a specific enzyme linked to hair loss.
research Effects on Steroid 5-Alpha Reductase Gene Expression of Thai Rice Bran Extracts and Molecular Dynamics Study on SRD5A2
Thai rice bran extracts, especially from Tubtim Chumphae rice, can significantly reduce the activity of hair loss genes, with x-tocopherol showing potential as an anti-hair loss product.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase 2 Deficiency Leads to Reduced Dominance-Related and Impulse-Control Behaviors
Mice lacking steroid 5α-reductase 2 show less aggression and better impulse control.
research Discovery of Natural Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors
