5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Depletion of cortical allopregnanolone potentiates stress-induced increase in cortical dopamine output
This study found that in rats, finasteride significantly reduced allopregnanolone in the cortex and increased both the rise and duration of dopamine levels in the prefrontal cortex in response to stress and anxiogenic stimuli.
research Isolation rearing-induced reduction of brain 5α-reductase expression: Relevance to dopaminergic impairments
Isolation stress in rats reduces brain enzyme levels, affecting dopamine function.
research A dopamine-methacrylated hyaluronic acid hydrogel as an effective carrier for stem cells in skin regeneration therapy
This study found that a dopamine-methacrylated hyaluronic acid hydrogel enhances the efficacy of adipose-derived stem cells in promoting skin regeneration, potentially involving the Notch signaling pathway.
research The 5α-reductase inhibitor Dutasteride but not Finasteride protects dopamine neurons in the MPTP mouse model of Parkinson’s disease
This study found that Dutasteride, a 5α-reductase inhibitor, demonstrated neuroprotective effects by preventing the MPTP-induced decline of dopaminergic markers in a Parkinson's disease mouse model.

2 / 1000+ resultscommunity Any adderall / vyvanse users here?
Adderall and Vyvanse may contribute to hair loss by stressing the dopamine system and increasing cortisol levels. Users discuss potential treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841 for managing hair loss.
community Has anyone with high prolactin taken meds to lower it and seen hair regrowth?
High prolactin levels may contribute to hair loss, and some users suggest supplements like mucuna pruriens, vitamin B6, vitamin E, L-Tyrosine, L-Theanine, DIM, and Zinc to lower prolactin. Lifestyle changes to increase dopamine, such as reducing screen time and stress, are also recommended.
