research Dose-dependent and long term effects of RU58841 (androgen receptor blocker) on hair growth in the bald stumptailed Macaque.

1 citations , January 1997 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

In this study using a macaque model, RU58841 at a 5% concentration significantly increased hair density, thickness, and length in the frontal bald scalp over six months.

research The effect of topical RU58841 (androgen receptor blocker) combined with minoxidil on hair growth in macaque androgenetic alopecia

March 1998 in “Journal of Dermatological Science”

Combining RU58841 and minoxidil significantly increases hair growth.

Androgen Receptor Antagonists Structure-Activity Relationships

research Androgen Receptor Antagonists (Antiandrogens) Structure-Activity Relationships

204 citations , February 2000 in “Current Medicinal Chemistry”

This review discusses the use of antiandrogens like flutamide and its derivatives in prostate cancer treatment and highlights the need for next-generation antiandrogens for improved efficacy; it reports no new clinical results.

4-(Alkylthio)- and 4-(Arylthio)-Benzonitrile Derivatives as Androgen Receptor Antagonists for the Topical Suppression of Sebum Production

research 4-(Alkylthio)- and 4-(arylthio)-benzonitrile derivatives as androgen receptor antagonists for the topical suppression of sebum production

11 citations , March 2009 in “Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters”

This study reports that 4-(alkylthio)- and 4-(arylthio)-benzonitriles showed moderate sebum reduction as androgen receptor antagonists when applied topically in a validated animal model.

research Organizational Effects of Estrogens and Androgens on Estrogen and Androgen Receptor Expression in Pituitary and Adrenal Glands in Adult Male and Female Rats

1 citations , June 2022 in “Frontiers in Neuroanatomy”

This study found that neonatal blocking of androgen and estrogen pathways in rats altered sex-specific expression of estrogen and androgen receptors in adult pituitary and adrenal glands, potentially influencing lifelong neuroendocrine function.

community Is there a topical androgen receptor blocker so we don't have to fuck with the enzyme and destroy our allopregnanolone, but go and hit the end target straight?

in Treatment 44 upvotes 2 years ago

The conversation discusses topical androgen receptor blockers for hair loss, mentioning Clascoterone, Pyrilutamide, GT20029, and RU58841. Ketoconazole's effectiveness and application methods are also debated.

community Androgen degraders for hair loss

61 upvotes 2 years ago

The conversation discusses androgen receptor degraders for hair loss, highlighting their potential advantages over traditional AR blockers like RU58841 and pyrilutamide. Concerns about the safety and cost of these treatments are also mentioned.

community Chat is this real? Compound called clascoterone

581 upvotes 9 months ago

Clascoterone shows promising results for hair regrowth in men with androgenetic alopecia, with potential FDA approval by 2026. It acts as a topical androgen receptor blocker, offering a new treatment option with minimal side effects compared to existing treatments like finasteride.

community Bicalutamide effect on androgens?

5 upvotes 5 years ago

Bicalutamide blocks androgen receptors, preventing testosterone and DHT from binding, which can help with hair loss but may cause feminization. It is not recommended for those who do not want feminization effects.

community A new study by Deng and colleagues set out to explore differences between balding and non balding scalps...

39 upvotes 4 years ago

Balding scalps have more androgen receptors, leading to increased TGF-beta, which causes blood vessel loss and hair follicle miniaturization. Blocking androgen signaling and TGF-beta may help prevent hair loss.

learn Fluridil

How is Fluridil different from other DHT blockers like finasteride? Fluridil is a topical androgen-receptor blocker applied to the scalp, while finasteride is an oral 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor that lowers DHT throughout the body. Finasteride is FDA-approved and far better studied; Fluridil rests on one 43-man trial and is not licensed as a hair-loss medicine, so its long-term safety and effect size are unknown.

learn KX-826

Kintor Pharmaceutical: KX-826, a New Name in Hair Loss Research KX-826 (pyrilutamide) is an experimental topical androgen receptor blocker from Kintor Pharmaceutical. It is not approved as a medicine anywhere; the company reports that its China Phase III trial met its primary endpoint at 24 weeks, but the trial data has been released through corporate announcements rather than peer-reviewed journals and long-term safety is unknown.

learn Overview

learn GT20029

research compound made to degrade androgen receptors in scalp

What is GT20029 and how does it work as a topical anti-androgen for hair loss? GT20029 is a topical anti-androgen that degrades androgen receptors to combat hair loss.

learn Cyproterone

a synthetic anti-androgen and weak progestogen that inhibits DHT binding to androgen receptor

learn Clascoterone

a novel topical treatment that inhibits DHT on androgen receptors

learn Bicalutamide

Can bicalutamide stop DHT from shrinking your hair follicles? Bicalutamide blocks androgens at the receptor rather than lowering DHT, and some dermatologists prescribe it off-label for women with pattern hair loss. The published evidence is retrospective case series and one small pilot study, with no randomized trial; it is a prescription drug that requires liver monitoring and is contraindicated in pregnancy.

learn Exosomes

What does Fluridil do on the scalp, and how does it block the DHT hormone? Fluridil blocks DHT by binding to androgen receptors in hair follicles, preventing hair loss.

learn Pyrilutamide

highly targeted anti-androgen that might have minimal systemic effects
