This theoretical study suggests that certain cannabinoid derivatives could potentially be effective as androgen receptor and 5α-reductase enzyme inhibitors, indicating they may be promising candidates for prostate cancer treatment based on their higher affinity to target proteins compared to standard drugs.

This study developed innovative silica/natural polysaccharide hybrid nanoparticles encapsulating plant-derived 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors, reporting effective controlled release at hair follicle pH and lower cytotoxicity, suggesting a promising delivery system for antiandrogenic treatments.

This study reported that a novel cationic liposome formulation for delivering encapsulated Cas9 protein and sgRNA successfully decreased SRD5α2 mRNA expression by 29.7% in vitro, suggesting a potential alternative treatment option for conditions like prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia without current drug side effects.

This study found that finasteride treatment in male rats led to enduring effects on depressive-like behavior, hippocampal neurogenesis and neuroinflammation, and gut microbiota composition after withdrawal.

In this study, researchers using QM/MM simulations identified key molecular motions and residue interactions in the enzyme SRD5A2 that significantly influence its catalytic efficiency, demonstrating that specific residues play critical roles in stabilizing transition states and reducing activation barriers.
