Steroids, particularly estrogens and 5α-reductase inhibitors, affect blood vessel-related hair growth processes in hair follicle cells.

The compounds tested could potentially treat hair loss and alopecia.

The enzyme that changes testosterone to a stronger form is mostly found in the part of the hair follicle called the dermal papilla.
