research Expression of mRNA for Androgen Receptor, 5α-Reductase, and 17β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Hair sensitivity to androgens is partly controlled by specific enzyme expressions in different hair areas.
research The Androgen Receptor Antagonizes Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling in Epidermal Stem Cells
Androgen receptor activity blocks Wnt/β-catenin signaling, affecting hair growth and skin cell balance.
research 5-Alpha-Reductase Type 2 Deficiency: Is There a Genotype-Phenotype Correlation? A Review
No consistent link between genotype and phenotype in 5-α-Reductase type 2 deficiency.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Treatments and Efficacy
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective FDA-approved treatments for androgenetic alopecia.
research Preponderance of Serum and Intra-Hepatic 5α-Dihydrotestosterone in Males with Hepatocellular Carcinoma Despite Low Circulating Androgen Levels

research Androgen Effects in Mammals
Testosterone is crucial for development, growth, and various body functions in mammals.
research In Vitro and In Vivo Assessment of Metabolic Drug Interaction Potential of Dutasteride with Ketoconazole
Taking Dutasteride with Ketoconazole can increase Dutasteride's effects and side effects.
research Chronic Administration of a LIMK2 Inhibitor Improves Cavernosal Veno-Occlusive Dysfunction Through Suppression of Cavernosal Fibrosis in a Rat Model of Erectile Dysfunction After Cavernosal Nerve Injury
Long-term use of certain prostate drugs can worsen erectile dysfunction by changing penile tissue, especially in rats with high blood pressure.
research Imaging Prostate Cancer With Technetium-99m Tricarbonyl Finasteride Dithiocarbamate
A new compound was effective for imaging prostate cancer in rats.
research Synthesis and Bioactivity of New Finasteride Conjugate
New Finasteride conjugate improves prostate treatment and vital signs in rats.
research High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Determination of the Enantiomers of the Benzoquinolinone LY 191704, a Human Type 1 5α-Reductase Inhibitor, in Plasma
Researchers developed a method to measure different forms of a drug that could help treat prostate issues and hair loss, and found how these forms behave in animals.
research Experimental Assessment of 3-Meta-Pyridine-1,2,4-Oxadiazole Deoxycholic Acid Derivative as a Prototype of 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors in Silico and in Vivo Models
The new compound is a promising, less toxic alternative to finasteride for treating prostate issues.
research 12-Chloracetyl-PPD, A Novel Dammarane Derivative, Shows Anti-Cancer Activity by Delaying G2/M Phase Cell Cycle Progression and Inducing ROS-Mediated Apoptosis
A new compound slows cancer cell growth and causes cell death by blocking cell cycle progression and increasing cell-damaging molecules.

New technologies show promise in healing wounds, treating cancer, autoimmune diseases, and genetic disorders.
research Induction of Secreted WNT Factor WISP1/CCN4 by Human Prostate Stromal Cells Under Microenvironmental Hypoxia
Human prostate cells produce more WISP1/CCN4 when there's not enough oxygen.
research Determination of Rat 5α-Reductase Type 1 Isozyme Activity and Its Inhibition by Novel Steroidal Oxazolines
New steroidal compounds moderately block an enzyme related to testosterone conversion, less effectively than finasteride.
research Androgenetic Alopecia, Prostate Volume, And Urinary Symptoms: Is There A Relationship? A Case-Control Study
