Effects of Finasteride on Steroid Production and Gene Expression in Male Fathead Minnow and Medaka
January 2026
New to Finasteride? There is a guide in the encyclopedia. Read the guide → Studysummary In these aquatic laboratory studies, researchers found that Finasteride reduced dihydrotestosterone levels in fathead minnows and increased gene expression related to androgen pathways in both minnows and medaka, indicating potential conservation of pharmaceutical effects on androgen biosynthesis across different species.
