Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors

research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors

402 citations , August 2011 in “Cancer research”

This study found that castration-resistant prostate cancers resistant to CYP17A1 inhibitors may still depend on steroids and could respond to therapies targeting de novo intratumoral steroid synthesis.

research Steroidogenesis inhibitors alter but do not eliminate androgen synthesis mechanisms during progression to castration-resistance in LNCaP prostate xenografts

57 citations , April 2009 in “The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology”

This study found that despite the presence of steroidogenesis inhibitors, CRPC tumor cells adapt to continue synthesizing androgens, suggesting a need for more effective androgen axis targeting.

research Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 3-oxo-4-oxa-5α-androst-17β-amide derivatives as dual 5α-reductase inhibitors and androgen receptor antagonists

3 citations , May 2017 in “Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters”

This study identified compounds 11d and 11k as potential dual 5α-reductase inhibitors and AR antagonists with significant anti-proliferative effects on prostate cancer cell lines, suggesting they may offer therapeutic value.

Synthesis and In Vitro Evaluation of 4-Substituted N-(1,1-Dimethylethyl)-3-Oxo-4-Androstene-17β-Carboxamides as 5α-Reductase Inhibitors and Antiandrogens

research Synthesis and in Vitro Evaluation of 4-Substituted N-(1,1-Dimethylethyl)-3-oxo-4-androstene-17.beta.-carboxamides as 5.alpha.-Reductase Inhibitors and Antiandrogens

12 citations , April 1995 in “Journal of Medicinal Chemistry”

In this study, 4-substituted N-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-3-oxo-4-androstene-17.beta.-carboxamides were synthesized and evaluated in vitro as potential 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors and antiandrogens.

research Synthesis and Study of Some 17a-aza-D-homo Steroids as 5α-Reductase Inhibitors

1 citations , October 2020 in “Current Drug Discovery Technologies”

This study investigated various synthesized 5-reductase inhibitors and found that compound 6 had the highest anti-androgenic activity and receptor affinity compared to finasteride, showing potential due to its improved efficacy and bioavailability for further research in treating lower urinary tract symptoms.

community Why does this industry still revolve around 5-AR inhibitors?

40 upvotes 5 years ago

Hair loss treatments still rely heavily on minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841, with little innovation. Future treatments like stem cell therapy and RNA technology show promise but are not yet available.

community Androsterone as a Neurosteroid Replacement Strategy for 5α-Reductase Inhibitor–Associated Sexual and Affective Dysfunction

in Research/Science 36 upvotes 2 months ago

Androsterone may help with sexual and affective dysfunction from finasteride by replacing disrupted neurosteroids without increasing androgenic side effects. Controlled testing is needed to confirm its effectiveness and safety.

community Breezula is the final brick in the wall

36 upvotes 2 months ago

Breezula is discussed as a potential topical anti-androgen treatment for hair loss, with mixed opinions on its effectiveness and side effects compared to other treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841. Some users express skepticism about its long-term efficacy and potential side effects, while others are hopeful for its approval and use in combination with existing treatments.

community Study: There is 70x Higher Unconjugated DHT in Feces Compared To Blood Levels in Young Adults - Gut Microbiota Manages DHT Recycling and Metabolism

in Research/Science 194 upvotes 1 year ago

Gut microbiota significantly influences androgen metabolism, impacting hair loss treatments like finasteride. Probiotics, dietary changes, and fecal microbiota transplants may help manage DHT levels and improve hair health.

community Sugar and hairloss

10 upvotes 5 years ago

Cutting sugar may not significantly impact hair loss, as DHT and androgen receptors are the main issues. Effective treatments include finasteride, dutasteride, RU58841, and minoxidil, often combined with microneedling.
