Hair loss, prostate size, and urinary issues are related due to androgen effects.

Rat dermal papilla cells have unique genes crucial for hair growth.

Scientists at the University of Michigan Medical School successfully created a special compound that can be used to improve imaging of prostate cancer.

Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) doesn't affect rat skin cell growth, but it does change cell cycle, protein levels, and other cell functions, potentially shortening hair growth cycle.

Higher DHT in male baldness may protect against prostate cancer.

New steroids were effective in blocking male hormone receptors in hamster prostates.

5α-reductase inhibitors can cause sexual problems, higher risk of aggressive prostate cancer, and depression.

The normal human prostate does not significantly affect blood DHT levels.

Male rats have androgen receptors in their liver, which are different from proteins that bind estrogen.

Finasteride treatment changes Cx43 in rat testes, possibly causing fertility issues.

Finasteride affects the male rat brain by reducing certain protein activation, but these effects may reverse after stopping the drug.

FP-1 is a key protein in rat hair growth, active only during the growth phase.

KGF and its receptor are found in enlarged prostate tissue and KGF strongly increases cell growth.

Certain natural compounds called terpenes may help prevent prostate cancer.

Neuronatin is found in specific cells within rat testis, hair follicles, tongue, and pancreas, suggesting it has various roles in tissue development and function.

The study created a test that found hormonal and toxic effects in plant and fungal extracts using prostate cancer cells.

Finasteride exposure affects gene expression and anogenital distance in male rat fetuses.

Finasteride helps female-pattern hair loss.

Aloe vera fermentation helps heal burns faster by reducing inflammation and changing gut bacteria.

Finasteride affects offspring's antioxidant enzymes in epididymis, possibly disrupting sperm maturation.

Finasteride treatment changes brain steroid levels and receptors, affecting brain function even after stopping treatment.

Some natural compounds may help overcome drug resistance in certain cancers, but more research is needed.

Finasteride cream helps hair growth with less side effects.

Estradiol and castration reduced prostate cancer development in rats when applied at early stages, but were ineffective after cancer was established.

Finasteride affects prostate weights and pituitary activity differently with age.

The document suggests that finasteride may cause depression and suicidal thoughts, while prostate surgery does not harm sexual health.

The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.

Early hair loss may indicate prostate issues.

Pumpkin seed oil may improve prostate health, bladder control, and hair growth in men.
