research Longer TA repeat but not V89L polymorphisms in the SRD5A2 gene may confer acne risk in the Chinese population
This study suggests that SRD5A2 polymorphisms may increase the risk of acne in individuals with normal serum testosterone levels, particularly in the Chinese population.
research The Aromatase Inhibitor Fadrozole and the 5-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride Affect Gonadal Differentiation and Gene Expression in the Frog Silurana tropicalis
This study found that chronic exposure to fadrozole or finasteride during frog development induced intersex individuals, which displayed different gene expression profiles depending on the chemical used.
research Expression and Activity Assay of Human Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Type II in CHO Cells
This study found that finasteride effectively inhibits the enzymatic activity of human steroid 5 alpha reductase type II in newly established CHO cell lines.
research The 5alpha-reductase type 1, but not type 2, gene is expressed in anagen hairs plucked from the vertex area of the scalp of hirsute women and normal individuals
This study found that SDR5A1 gene expression was similar between hirsute women, normal women, and men, suggesting it may not explain differences in hair growth among these groups.
research Epigenetic regulation of 5α reductase-1 underlies adaptive plasticity of reproductive function and pubertal timing
This study found that the gene SRD5A1, associated with methylation changes due to early-life environment, may play a role in altering reproductive phenotypes in women by delaying pubertal onset and decreasing ovarian reserve.
research Structure of human type II 5 alpha-reductase gene
This study details the isolation and characterization of the human type II 5 alpha-reductase gene, which may play a role in male pseudohermaphroditism, prostate cancer, and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research 5α-Reductase, an enzyme regulating glucocorticoid action in the testis of Rhinella arenarum (Amphibia: Anura)
5α-Reductase helps regulate hormone action in toad testes, especially during breeding season.
research Expression, characterization, and structural analysis of human liver delta4-3-ketosteroid 5beta-reductase (AKR1D1) and its disease-related mutant P133R
This study provided the first X-ray crystal structure of the mammalian steroid hormone reductase AKR1D1 and identified a disease-related mutant, P133R, which may impact bile acid metabolism and cause clinical symptoms.
research Analysis of genetic polymorphisms of steroid 5α-reductase type 1 and 2 genes in Korean men with androgenetic alopecia
This study found no significant associations between the polymorphisms of SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 genes and androgenetic alopecia, clinical types of baldness, or response to finasteride in Koreans.
research Identification of xenobiotics interfering with 5 α -reductase (SRD5A2) activity
This study used an in silico/in vitro approach to identify potential inhibitors of the enzyme SRD5A2, finding that the androgen receptor modulator MK-0773 is a moderate inhibitor, although it does not act as a covalent inhibitor like finasteride.
research Strontium Ranelate Promotes Chondrogenesis Through Inhibition of the Wnt/β-catenin Pathway
This study found that strontium ranelate may promote cartilage regeneration by enhancing chondrogenic differentiation and inhibiting the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in rat models of cartilage defects.
research Sry Transcript Expression in Five Adult Male Rat Tissues and Correlation with Acsl3 Transcript Expression
In this study, total Sry transcript expression in various rat tissues was linked to Acsl3 expression, suggesting that Sry may play a role in regulating fatty acid metabolism.
research The RAIG Family Member, GPRC5D, Is Associated with Hard-Keratinized Structures
This study describes GPRC5D's unique expression pattern in tissues that produce hard keratin, with retinoic acid inducing its expression in hair bulb cells and affecting keratin gene regulation.
research Quantification of the Vitamin D Receptor−Coregulator Interaction
