research Stress-Induced Deoxycorticosterone-Derived Neurosteroids Modulate GABA A Receptor Function and Seizure Susceptibility
Stress increases neurosteroids that help prevent seizures.
research Neurosteroidogenesis Is Required for the Physiological Response to Stress: Role of Neurosteroid-Sensitive GABA-A Receptors
Neurosteroids are crucial for stress response, and targeting specific receptors may help treat certain disorders.
research Neurosteroid Synthesis-Mediated Regulation of GABA A Receptors: Relevance to the Ovarian Cycle and Stress
Ovarian and stress hormones can change GABA A receptors through neurosteroids.
research Production of 5α-Reduced Neurosteroids Is Developmentally Regulated and Shapes GABA A Miniature IPSCs in Lamina II of the Spinal Cord
Neurosteroids regulate synaptic inhibition in the spinal cord and may help manage spinal pain.
research Changes in Expression and Function of Extrasynaptic GABA A Receptors in the Rat Hippocampus During Pregnancy and After Delivery

5 / 58 resultscommunity 5 alpha reductase type 1 is in brain tissue producing the main endogenous gabaergic allopregnanolone, not 2. How can finasteride as a 5ar2 lower that?
Finasteride and dutasteride are discussed for hair loss, with concerns about their effects on neurosteroids and potential side effects like depression. Alternatives like topical estrogen and lifestyle changes are considered, with varying opinions on mental health and hair regrowth.
community Pyrilutamide vs enzalutamide. Same thing?( Especially for biochemists, farmacologists)
Researching whether pyri and enza, which are stereoisomers of each other, share the same features related to CNS penetration/GABA Inhibition; safety and efficacy when used topically at 0.5-1%; and cost comparison between the two treatments.
community Do it yourself topical Fin and Min solution works
A homemade topical solution of finasteride and minoxidil effectively stopped hair shedding and promoted regrowth without side effects. Users shared experiences and discussed different concentrations and application methods.
community 36yo male, NW6, 2.5mth dut/minox
A 36-year-old male using dutasteride and minoxidil has seen significant hair regrowth, confirmed by a dermatologist and supported by before-and-after photos. He plans to increase his oral minoxidil dosage and add dermapen to his routine.
community Why does this industry still revolve around 5-AR inhibitors?
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.
