research Activity of 17β-(N-Alkyl/arylformamido) and 17β-[(N-Alkyl/aryl) alkyl/arylamido]-4-methyl-4-aza-5α-androstan-3-ones as 5α-Reductase Inhibitors in the Hamster Flank Organ and Ear11The research has been supported by Endorecherche that is seeking patent protection for the new compounds. F. Labrie is President of Endorecherche.
This study observed that the compound EM-402 reduced 5α-reductase activity and sebaceous gland size in the flank organs and ears of hamsters, indicating potent localized anti-androgenic effects without systemic action.
research Chemical agents and peptides affect hair growth
This study found that topical minoxidil and diazoxide induced significant hair regrowth in bald macaques, while a steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor prevented baldness in preadolescent macaques.
research Biosynthesis of Dihydrotestosterone by a Pathway that Does Not Require Testosterone as an Intermediate in the SZ95 Sebaceous Gland Cell Line
This study suggests that in SZ95 sebocytes, a pathway for DHT biosynthesis does not require testosterone as an intermediate, potentially impacting the treatment of androgen-sensitive skin conditions.
research Azasteroids as inhibitors of testosterone 5α-reductase in mammalian skin
This study found that 4-MA is a potent inhibitor of testosterone 5α-reductase in human tissues, promising potential for treating androgen-dependent skin conditions like male pattern baldness.
