research Midazolam Inhibits Hippocampal Long-Term Potentiation and Learning through Dual Central and Peripheral Benzodiazepine Receptor Activation and Neurosteroidogenesis
This study found that midazolam, unlike clonazepam, increased neurosteroid levels and affected synaptic inhibition and plasticity in rat hippocampal neurons, suggesting unique actions via dual receptor activation.
research Reduced estradiol synthesis by letrozole, an aromatase inhibitor, is protective against development of pentylenetetrazole-induced kindling in mice
This study found that letrozole, an aromatase inhibitor, reduced the incidence and severity of PTZ-induced kindling seizures in mice, potentially due to its effects on 17β-estradiol and neurosteroid synthesis.
research Treatment of androgenic disorders with dexamethasone: Dose-response relationship for suppression of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate
This study found that dexamethasone effectively suppressed DHEAS levels in women with elevated levels using much lower doses than previously thought, without significant adverse effects.
research Acute and 30-day oral toxicity studies of a novel coccidiostat – ethanamizuril
In this study, ethanamizuril was found to cause alopecia, biochemical changes, and organ damage at higher doses in rats, with a no-observed-adverse-effect level of 20 mg/kg over 30 days.
research Die kontrazeptive Betreuung androgenisierter Frauen mit einem niedrig dosierten cyproteronacetathaltigen Einphasenpräparat
In this study, Diane was reported to effectively treat acne, seborrhoea, androgenic alopecia, and mild hirsutism in hirsute women, with its effectiveness influenced by the severity and duration of the condition.
research Acquired Generalized Hypertrichosis Due to Diazoxide
A 6-year-old boy developed excessive hair growth after taking diazoxide for low blood sugar.
research Role of Neurosteroidogenic Pathways in the Antiseizure Activity of Midazolam in the 6‐Hz and Kindling Models of Epilepsy
This study found that the antiseizure activity of midazolam primarily occurs through synaptic GABA-A receptors, with no significant involvement of endogenous neurosteroids or extrasynaptic receptors.
research Novel micelle formulations to increase cutaneous bioavailability of azole antifungals
This study found that econazole nitrate delivered via MPEG-dihexPLA micelles significantly increased skin deposition compared to Pevaryl® cream, potentially enhancing drug bioavailability and clinical efficacy.
research Localized alopecia and suppression of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in dogs following treatment with difluprednate 0.05% ophthalmic emulsion (Durezol®)
This study found that long-term use of difluprednate ophthalmic emulsion in dogs can lead to HPA axis suppression and potentially cause iatrogenic hyperadrenocorticism, with localized alopecia suspected due to dermal absorption.
research Cortexolone 17a-propionate: Preclinical profile of a new topical, skin selective, steroidal antiandrogen
Clofazimine may be effective for treating ashy dermatosis.
research Calcipotriol/dithranol
research An Antifungal for Antidiuresis?
This study found that fluconazole increased water transport in renal cells via effects on aquaporin-2 channels, suggesting potential as a treatment for nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, though clinical trials are needed to confirm efficacy in humans.
research Deoxycorticosterone’s anticonvulsant effects in infant rats are blocked by finasteride, but not by indomethacin
Finasteride blocks deoxycorticosterone's anticonvulsant effects in infant rats, but indomethacin doesn't.
research Synthesis and 5α-Reductase Inhibitory Activity of C21 Steroids Having 1,4-diene or 4,6-diene 20-ones and 4-Azasteroid 20-Oximes
This study reported that while no synthesized compounds surpassed finasteride in 5α-reductase inhibitory activity, certain 4-azasteroid-2-oximes exhibited notable inhibition.
research A comparative study of Aldactone® and Diane® in the treatment of hirsutism
This study suggests that Aldactone may be more effective than Diane in reducing hair growth, despite having minimal impact on hormone levels.
research Synthesis and biological evaluation of 3-tetrazolo steroidal analogs: Novel class of 5α-reductase inhibitors
3-tetrazolo steroidal analogs can strongly inhibit the enzyme linked to hair loss.
research Ketoconazole use in the treatment of ovarian hyperandrogenism
This study reported that ketoconazole may effectively normalize menstruation and reduce testosterone and hair growth in women with ovarian hyperandrogenism, though its safety needs further evaluation.
research Uso de cetrizina en alopecia androgenética
This systematic review explored the potential of cetirizine, an anti-inflammatory antihistamine, as a complementary treatment for androgenetic alopecia, reporting that it might help prevent hair follicle miniaturization by reducing inflammation and modulating immune activity, without notable side effects.
research Effect of flutamide and two novel synthetic steroids on GABA, glutamine and some oxidative stress markers in rat brain and prostate
This study concluded that 16β-methyl-17α-benzoyloxypregnen-4-en-3,20-dione may be a promising treatment for androgen-dependent diseases and epilepsy due to its antioxidant effects and impact on GABAergic and serotonergic metabolism in rats.
research The protoporphyrin IX dimethyl ester incorporated soy lecithin for photoinactivation of fluconazole-resistant Candida albicans
research Role of neurosteroids in the anticonvulsant activity of midazolam
This study found that enhanced neurosteroid synthesis likely mediated by the translocator protein contributed to the anticonvulsant action of midazolam in mice.
research DanEraTM MULTIPURPOSE HAIR TONIC: A HERBAL COMPOSITION WITH POMEGRANATE AND BEETROOT EXTRACTS FOR DANDRUFF AND HAIR FALL
In this study, DanEra, an herbal hair tonic from Pomegranate and Beetroot extracts, showed equivalent effectiveness to the standard drug Ketoconazole in microbiological tests and provided significant relief from severe dandruff in all volunteers within 10 days.
research Adverse Effects Associated with Long-Term Administration of Azole Antifungal Agents
Long-term use of azole antifungals can cause hair loss, hormonal imbalances, and severe skin reactions.
research New Nonsteroidal Molecules as Blockers of the Steroidogenic Pathway
This study found that two novel nonsteroidal derivatives inhibited specific enzymes in vitro and in vivo, leading to dihydrotestosterone accumulation in androgen-dependent glands, suggesting potential therapeutic use for mood improvement in the elderly.
research Lack of a gonadal or adrenal androgenic mechanism for the hypertrichosis produced by diazoxide, phenytoin and minoxidil
These drugs cause hair growth without affecting testosterone or adrenal hormones.
research Nurses' Drug Alert
Some drugs can cause serious side effects, like hypoglycemia from mix-ups, skin reactions, or depression, and while penicillamine may help rheumatoid arthritis more than auranofin, it has more severe side effects.
