research Transcranial Red LED Therapy: A Promising Non-Invasive Treatment to Prevent Age-Related Hippocampal Memory Impairment
This review covers red light Transcranial LED therapy for hippocampal memory impairment in aging and Alzheimer's but reports no clinical results, highlighting a need for further research into its mechanisms and effects.
research Human Osteoblast-Like Cells Express Predominantly Steroid 5α-Reductase Type 1
This study suggests that in human osteoblast-like cells, the 5alpha-reductase type 1 isozyme predominantly catalyzes the conversion of testosterone to DHT, which may play a role in bone homeostasis.
research Immunohistopathological analysis of frizzled-4-positive immature melanocytes from hair follicles of patients with Rhododenol-induced leukoderma
This study observed that the topical skin-whitening agent rhododendrol induced skin depigmentation in approximately 16,000 consumers, linked to melanocyte cytotoxicity and immune reactions.
research Testosterone alters iron metabolism and stimulates red blood cell production independently of dihydrotestosterone
This study found that testosterone-enanthate increased red blood cell production and altered iron homeostasis in older hypogonadal men without being affected by finasteride, indicating these effects do not require type II 5α-reductase enzyme activity.
research Minoxidil induced central serous Chorioretinopathy treated with oral Eplerenone – a case report
This case report suggests that prolonged use of topical minoxidil for androgenic alopecia may cause central serous chorioretinopathy, and oral eplerenone appeared effective in resolving symptoms in the patient presented.
research Synthesis, Biological Evaluation and Molecular Docking of Avicequinone C Analogues as Potential Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
This study found that a synthetic avicequinone C analogue, 5e, was significantly more potent in inhibiting steroid 5α-reductase type 1 activity in human keratinocytes compared to the original isolated compound.
research Antroquinonol Exerts Immunosuppressive Effect on CD8+ T Cell Proliferation and Activation to Resist Depigmentation Induced by H2O2
This study found that antroquinonol inhibited CD8+ T cell proliferation and reduced proinflammatory cytokine secretion in vitro, while also ameliorating H2O2-induced depigmentation and resisting reductions in hair follicle length, skin thickness, and tyrosinase expression in mice.
research Arsenic Trioxide as Effective Therapy for Relapsed Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia
This article discusses arsenic trioxide as a treatment for refractory or relapsed acute promyelocytic leukemia, noting its effectiveness and manageable side effects.
research MINOXIDIL INDUCED PLEURO-PERICARDIAL EFFUSION IN END-STAGE RENAL DISEASE
research Treatment of Del(5q) Myelodysplastic Syndrome with All-Trans-Retinoic Acid and Tocopherol-α.
This study concluded that the combination of all-trans-retinoic acid and tocopherol-α is not recommended for treating del(5q) myelodysplastic syndromes due to low efficacy and high incidence of adverse effects.
research In vivo and in silico evaluation of the ameliorative effect of hesperidin on finasteride-induced testicular oxidative stress in Wistar rats
This study found that in male rats, hesperidin co-administration ameliorated finasteride-induced testicular toxicity by reducing oxidative stress and improving antioxidant status, sperm parameters, and enzyme activity compared to finasteride treatment alone.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
This study found that newly synthesized steroidal trienones demonstrated stronger 5α-reductase inhibitory activity compared to dienones in various biological models, suggesting potential for developing enhanced antiandrogenic drugs.
research Clinical and dermoscopic evaluation of red light emitting diodes with beta-carotene versus red light emitting diodes alone in treatment of photoaging
This study found that combining red light therapy with oral beta-carotene significantly improved photoaging treatment outcomes compared to red light therapy alone, with Group A showing a 56.12% reduction in photoaging scores over 12 weeks versus 44.78% in Group B.
research New Nonsteroidal Molecules as Blockers of the Steroidogenic Pathway
This study found that two novel nonsteroidal derivatives inhibited specific enzymes in vitro and in vivo, leading to dihydrotestosterone accumulation in androgen-dependent glands, suggesting potential therapeutic use for mood improvement in the elderly.
research Minoxidil suppressed mitochondrial depolarization and subsequent neuronal cell death by decreasing intracellular potassium level
This study found that high-dose minoxidil, a potassium channel opener, may protect neuronal tissue from damage following transient focal cerebral ischemia in mice.
research The involvement of ROS on androgen inducible TGF beta 1 regulation derived from dermal papilla cells; a suggestive implication of ROS on androgenetic alopecia
ROS may affect hair loss related to hormones.
research Enzalutamide/finasteride/goserelin/zoledronic-acid
research Clin-Alert
In 2002, various drugs caused serious side effects, including vitamin B12 deficiency, heart issues, blindness, hypersexuality, allergic reactions, blood clotting problems, pupil dilation, capillary leak syndrome, muscle breakdown, hepatitis, skin reactions, and lupus.
research 5α-reductase isoenzymes mediate stress-exacerbated Tourette-like responses in animal models
This study found that in animal models of Tourette syndrome, stress-induced tic-like behaviors and sensorimotor gating deficits were reduced by finasteride, suggesting a role for neurosteroids like allopregnanolone.
research Computational Evaluation of Dibenzo Compounds as Potential Dual Inhibitors of Androgen Receptor and 5α-Reductase
This study reviews the potential of dibenzo derivatives as safer cancer treatments but finds conflicting evidence about their effectiveness, possibly due to structural differences among the compounds, and reports no new results.
research The neurosteroidogenic enzyme 5α-reductase modulates the role of D1 dopamine receptors in rat sensorimotor gating
This study suggests that the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride modulates sensorimotor gating in rats by affecting D1 and D3 receptors, but not D2 receptors, with varying effects based on genetic strain.
