Sex Steroid Hormone Receptors in Human Skin Appendages and Their Neoplasms

research Sex Steroid Hormone Receptors in Human Skin Appendage and its Neoplasms

59 citations , January 2005 in “Endocrine Journal”

This study found that sex steroid hormone receptors are largely maintained during the transformation of skin appendages to neoplasms, except for androgen and estrogen receptors in sweat and sebaceous gland tumors.

research The mineralocorticoid receptor as a novel player in skin biology: beyond the renal horizon?

40 citations , November 2009 in “Experimental Dermatology”

This review discusses the role of the mineralocorticoid receptor in skin biology, highlighting its potential involvement in keratinocyte and hair physiology, and proposes it may affect the side effects of glucocorticoid use.

research Cannabinoids and Their Receptors in Skin Diseases

1 citations , November 2023 in “International journal of molecular sciences”

This article highlights that while cannabinoids show potential for treating various skin conditions, current evidence is largely preclinical, with a need for comprehensive clinical trials to confirm these promising effects.

research The pattern recognition receptor toll-like receptor 3 regulates skin barrier homeostasis

January 2014 in “eScholarship (California Digital Library)”

In this study, researchers observed that TLR3 and scavenger receptors play key roles in skin barrier repair following UVB damage, contributing to our understanding of cellular responses to skin injury.

research Localization of sex steroid receptors in human skin.

147 citations , April 2004 in “PubMed”

community What is the actual cause for oily skin/acne after starting finasteride?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 6 upvotes 1 year ago

Finasteride can cause oily skin and acne due to increased testosterone or sensitivity of androgen receptors. Some users find dutasteride results in less oily skin compared to finasteride.

community Gartanin Degrades dht receptor found in mangosteen fruit. Gonna buy the raw powder mix it with castor oil and filter out the rest. And apply topically.

5 upvotes 8 years ago

The conversation discusses using gartanin from mangosteen mixed with castor oil to degrade the androgen receptor for hair loss treatment. Alternatives like setipiprant, minoxidil, and dermastamping are also mentioned, with concerns about cost and potential side effects.

community How can ketoconazole shampoo block androgen receptor if it's just washed off?

60 upvotes 10 months ago

Ketoconazole shampoo is primarily used to reduce scalp fungus and inflammation, not to block DHT or androgen receptors. It may help with seborrheic dermatitis and improve scalp health, but its effects on hair loss are minimal compared to treatments like finasteride.

community Androgenetic alopecia is a skin disease: DHT-mediated skin disorders

63 upvotes 2 years ago

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) impacts various skin conditions, including Androgenetic alopecia and seborrheic dermatitis, by causing overactivity in sebaceous glands. Topical medications Tacrolimus and Clobetasol can reduce these inflammatory conditions, and treatments like RU58841, Minoxidil, and Finasteride may also be beneficial.

community Is there a topical androgen receptor blocker so we don't have to fuck with the enzyme and destroy our allopregnanolone, but go and hit the end target straight?

in Treatment 44 upvotes 2 years ago

The conversation discusses topical androgen receptor blockers for hair loss, mentioning Clascoterone, Pyrilutamide, GT20029, and RU58841. Ketoconazole's effectiveness and application methods are also debated.
