October 2022 in “Biomedicines” The review investigates the transgenerational effects of finasteride-induced androgen imbalance on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, oxidative stress, and liver disorders. It was found that finasteride treatment in male rats led to significant metabolic and cellular stress in their offspring, including hyperglycemia and increased hepatic glycogen accumulation. The study highlights the role of androgen receptors in regulating ER stress and the unfolded protein response (UPR) in the liver, suggesting that these mechanisms could be potential therapeutic targets for liver diseases. The findings emphasize the need for further research into how finasteride and similar drugs may induce hereditary changes affecting offspring health.
