Short-term finasteride use in male rats caused anxiety, depression, and memory problems.

research How Does Altered Metabolism Lead to Seizure Control? Partially Filling the Knowledge Gap
Altered metabolism can help control seizures by changing brain signaling and energy use, suggesting new treatments for epilepsy.
research Sex-Dependent Responsiveness of Hippocampal Neurons to Sex Neurosteroids: A Role of Arc/Arg3.1

research Overexpression of the 18 kDa Translocator Protein (TSPO) in the Hippocampal Dentate Gyrus Produced Anxiolytic and Antidepressant-Like Behavioral Effects
Increasing TSPO in the brain reduces anxiety and depression.

research TSPO Ligand Etifoxine Attenuates LPS-Induced Cognitive Dysfunction in Mice
Etifoxine, an anxiety drug, can lessen brain inflammation and cognitive issues in mice, partly by increasing production of protective brain steroids.
research Antiepileptogenic Effects of Trilostane in the Kainic Acid Model of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
Trilostane may help delay epilepsy development by increasing certain brain chemicals.

research The Influence of Finasteride on Mean and Relative Spectral Density of EEG Bands in a Rat Model of Thioacetamide-Induced Hepatic Encephalopathy
Finasteride may protect brain and improve behavior in rats with liver failure.

research Effects of Finasteride on Chronic and Acute Ethanol Withdrawal Severity in the WSP and WSR Selected Lines
Finasteride reduces alcohol withdrawal severity and anxiety in mice, but may increase withdrawal severity in some cases.

research Role of Anticonvulsant and Antiepileptogenic Neurosteroids in the Pathophysiology and Treatment of Epilepsy
Neurosteroids show promise for treating epilepsy and more research is needed.

research Neurosteroids on the Epilepsy Chessboard: Keeping Seizures in Check
Ketogenic diet, neurosteroids, and HMGB1-TLR4 signaling pathway are potential targets for new epilepsy treatments.
research Aromatase Inhibition by Letrozole Attenuates Kainic Acid-Induced Seizures but Not Neurotoxicity in Mice
Letrozole reduces seizures but not brain damage in mice.

research The 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride Is Not Associated With Alterations in Sleep Spindles in Men Referred for Polysomnography
Finasteride doesn't affect sleep spindles in men.

research Repeated Finasteride Administration Promotes Synaptic Plasticity and Produces Antidepressant and Anxiolytic-Like Effects in Female Rats
Finasteride may reduce depression and anxiety in female rats and improve brain connectivity.

research Neonatal Finasteride Administration Alters Hippocampal α4 and δ GABAAR Subunits Expression and Behavioral Responses to Progesterone in Adult Rats

research GABAA Receptor Modulation by Neurosteroids in Models of Temporal Lobe Epilepsies
Neurosteroids change how GABA_A receptors work in the brain, which could be important for treating temporal lobe epilepsy.
research Finasteride, a 5alpha-Reductase Inhibitor, Blocks the Anticonvulsant Activity of Progesterone in Mice
Finasteride, a drug, can block the seizure-preventing effects of a hormone called progesterone in mice.

research Isoallopregnanolone Reduces Tic-Like Behaviors in the D1CT-7 Mouse Model of Tourette Syndrome
Isoallopregnanolone may be a safe and effective treatment for reducing tics in a mouse model of Tourette syndrome.
research Ferulic Acid Inhibits Catamenial Epilepsy Through Modulation Of Female Hormones
Ferulic acid may help control menstrual cycle-related epilepsy by affecting female hormones.

research Anti-Androgen Drugs in the Treatment of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: A Systematic Review
Anti-androgen drugs can help reduce OCD symptoms, but more large-scale trials are needed to confirm their effectiveness.

research Penis Endocrinology
Hormones, especially testosterone and DHT, are key for penis development and function, and testosterone therapy may help with erectile dysfunction in those with low levels.

research Persistent Sexual and Nonsexual Adverse Effects of Finasteride in Younger Men
Finasteride can cause sexual problems and depression in young men.

research TSPO Activation Modulates the Effects of High Pressure in a Rat Ex Vivo Glaucoma Model
Activating TSPO helps protect the retina from damage caused by high eye pressure in glaucoma.
research Role of Allopregnanolone Biosynthesis in Acute Stress-Induced Anxiety-Like Behaviors in Mice
Blocking allopregnanolone production in mice makes them more anxious after stress, but this can be reversed with a drug that mimics allopregnanolone.
research Neurosteroids in Adult Hippocampus of Male and Female Rodents: Biosynthesis and Actions of Sex Steroids
Sex steroids produced in the hippocampus are crucial for brain functions like memory and learning in rodents.

research Neurosteroids, Neuroactive Steroids, and Symptoms of Affective Disorders
Certain steroids in the brain affect mood and symptoms of depression, and treatments targeting these steroids show promise for improving these symptoms.
