research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for Screening Steroid 5-Alpha Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Male androgenetic alopecia involves hair follicle miniaturization due to DHT, with potential treatments using inhibitors and blockers.
research The Effect of A100 Gel on Hair Growth and Hair Quality: An Explanatory Study
A100 gel may increase hair growth without side effects, but more research is needed.
research Efficacy and Tolerability of a Topical Gel Containing Mimicking Growth Factors Oligopeptides, Caffeine, Taurine and an Iron-Chelating Complex in Subjects with Androgenetic Alopecia Treated with Topical Minoxidil or Oral Finasteride: A Prospective, 6-Month, Randomized, Assessor-Blinded, 4-Arm, Parallel Group Study
Adding the topical gel improved hair growth more than using minoxidil or finasteride alone.

Finasteride gel and tablet both have similar moderate effects in treating male hair loss.
research Structure of Human Type II 5 Alpha-Reductase Gene
The human type II 5α-reductase gene, linked to certain male health conditions, has a specific structure and low similarity to other related genes.
research Structure of Human Type II 5 Alpha-Reductase Gene
The human type II 5α-reductase gene has a specific structure important for understanding certain medical conditions.
research Finasteride: A Slow-Binding 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitor
Finasteride slowly binds to 5-alpha-reductase, affecting enzyme stability and inhibitor potency.
research Activation of Hair Cell Growth Factors by Linoleic Acid in Malva Verticillata Seed
Linoleic acid from Malva verticillata seeds may help treat hair loss by promoting hair cell growth and blocking baldness signals.
research A Systematic Review on Topical Marketed Formulations, Natural Products, and Oral Supplements to Prevent Androgenic Alopecia
Various treatments, including FDA-approved drugs, natural products, and oral supplements, can help with hair loss, but a patient's medical history and potential allergies should be considered when choosing a treatment.
