The present study aimed to delineate the central mechanisms by which androgens delay wound repair. Blocking the conversion of testosterone to 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by 5alpha-reductase limits its ability to impair skin wound healing, suggesting that DHT is a more potent inhibitor of repair...
