research Undariopsis Peterseniana Promotes Hair Growth by the Activation of Wnt/β-Catenin and ERK Pathways
Undariopsis peterseniana extract helps hair grow by activating certain cell growth pathways and could be a new treatment for hair loss.
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 Androgenetic Alopecia: Combing the Hair Follicle Signaling Pathways for New Therapeutic Targets and More Effective Treatment Options
New treatments for hair loss may target specific pathways and generate new hair follicles.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Study of Gene Expression Alteration in Male Androgenetic Alopecia: Evidence of Predominant Molecular Signaling Pathways
Hair loss involves immune responses, inflammation, and disrupted signaling pathways.
research Ginsenoside F2 Reduces Hair Loss by Controlling Apoptosis Through the Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein Cleavage Activating Protein and Transforming Growth Factor-β Pathways in a Dihydrotestosterone-Induced Mouse Model
Ginsenoside F2 may help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth better than finasteride.
research Human Platelet Lysate Versus Minoxidil Stimulates Hair Growth by Activating Anagen Promoting Signaling Pathways
Both human platelet lysate and minoxidil can promote hair growth, but they affect different genes and cell survival rates.
research Pilose Antler Extracts Promote Hair Growth in Androgenetic Alopecia Mice by Activating Hair Follicle Stem Cells via the AKT and Wnt Pathways
Pilose antler extracts help hair growth by activating hair follicle stem cells.
research FDA-Approved (Bremelanotide, Flibanserin) and Off-Label Medications (Testosterone, Sildenafil) to Enhance Sexual Desire and Function in Women
Some medications can help increase sexual desire and function in women.
research Sex Differences in COVID-19: The Role of Androgens in Disease Severity and Progression
Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.
research Transcriptomic Profiling in Silurana Tropicalis Testes Exposed to Finasteride
Finasteride affects frog testes by increasing testosterone, decreasing 5α-DHT, and impacting genes related to reproduction and other functions.
research Exploring the Efficacy of Testosterone Undecanoate in Male Children with 5α-Reductase Deficiency
Testosterone undecanoate safely and effectively increased penis size in male children with 5-alpha-reductase deficiency.
research Filamin A Mediates Wound Closure by Promoting Elastic Deformation and Maintenance of Tension in the Collagen Matrix
Testosterone may worsen hair loss by affecting hair growth signals, while different prostaglandins can either hinder or promote hair growth.
research Androgenic Modulation of Arterial Baroreceptor Dysfunction and Neuroinflammation in Endotoxic Male Rats
Testosterone affects blood pressure control and inflammation in male rats with endotoxic shock, and blocking certain hormones may help treat it.
research Synthesis and Actions of 5α-Reduced Metabolites of Testosterone in the Nervous System
Testosterone and its metabolites affect brain functions and could help treat neurological disorders.
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 Identification of Immune Microenvironment Changes, Immune-Related Pathways and Genes in Male Androgenetic Alopecia
The research suggests immune system changes and specific gene expression may contribute to male hair loss, proposing potential new treatments.
research Hallmark Evidence of Lipopolysaccharide Tolerance in Obese Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: LPS-Induced NFkB Suppression in Mononuclear Cells Linked to Hyperandrogenism
High levels of testosterone and anti-Müllerian hormone before pregnancy are linked to a higher risk of newborns needing intensive care.
research Androgen Therapy in Women: A Reappraisal: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline
The guidelines advise against using testosterone and DHEA in women for most conditions due to safety and effectiveness concerns, but suggest considering testosterone for postmenopausal women with low sexual desire.
research Androgen Receptor-Mediated Inhibition of Cutaneous Wound Healing
Lowering testosterone speeds up wound healing in male mice.
research Regulatory Roles of Androgens in Cutaneous Wound Healing
Testosterone may slow down wound healing and increase inflammation.
research Improvement of Endothelial Function with Metformin and Rosiglitazone Treatment in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Metformin and rosiglitazone improve blood vessel function in women with PCOS, with metformin also reducing insulin resistance and testosterone levels.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research Genetic Predictors of Testosterone and Their Associations with Cardiovascular Disease and Risk Factors: A Mendelian Randomization Investigation
Testosterone is linked to cardiovascular risk factors and stroke, but its exact role is unclear.
research Understanding and Addressing Hair Disorders in Transgender Individuals
Hormone therapy affects hair growth in transgender individuals, with testosterone potentially causing hair loss in trans men and estrogen reducing facial/body hair in trans women; treatment options vary.
research Use of Insulin-Sensitizing Agents in Patients With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
