research Synthesis and Actions of 5α-Reduced Metabolites of Testosterone in the Nervous System
Testosterone and its metabolites affect brain functions and could help treat neurological disorders.
research Effect of 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and Testosterone on Apoptosis in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.
research PNU 157706, A Novel Dual Type I and II 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
PNU 157706 is a more effective treatment than finasteride for conditions caused by DHT, like enlarged prostate and hair loss.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for Screening Steroid 5-Alpha Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Mechanism of Salutary Effects of Finasteride on Post-Traumatic Immune/Inflammatory Response
Finasteride reduces inflammation and improves immune response after trauma by altering hormone levels.
research Dihydrotestosterone And The Prostate: The Scientific Rationale For 5α-Reductase Inhibitors In The Treatment Of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Drugs that block DHT production can effectively treat enlarged prostate and improve urinary issues with some sexual side effects.
research Overexpression of Aldo-Keto Reductase 1C3 in LNCaP Cells Diverts Androgen Metabolism Towards Testosterone Resulting in Resistance to the 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride
Too much AKR1C3 enzyme causes resistance to finasteride by increasing testosterone.
research Psychological Effect, Pathophysiology, and Management of Androgenetic Alopecia in Men
Minoxidil and finasteride can slow hair loss and stimulate regrowth, but won't restore all lost hair or reverse complete baldness.
research Bone Density Is Normal in Male Rats Treated with Finasteride
Finasteride doesn't affect bone density in male rats.
research Human Scalp Hair: Modulation by Various Factors and Hormones - Do Estrogens Inhibit or Stimulate? A Perplexing Perspective
The effects of estrogen on human scalp hair growth are unclear and need more research.
research Caffeine and Its Role in Regulating Androgenetic Alopecia
Caffeine can potentially treat common hair loss by counteracting hair follicle shrinkage caused by hormones.
research Effects of In Utero Exposure to Finasteride on Androgen-Dependent Reproductive Development in Male Rats
Exposure to finasteride in the womb caused lasting reproductive issues in male rats.
research Peripheral Androgens And The Role Of Androstanediol Glucuronide
Androstanediol glucuronide is a reliable marker for hirsutism in women.
research Hedonic Sensitivity to Natural Rewards Is Affected by Prenatal Stress in a Sex-Dependent Manner
Prenatal stress changes how male and female rats enjoy rewards differently, linked to sex hormones.
research Finasteride-Induced Gynecomastia in a 62-Year-Old Man
Finasteride caused enlarged breast tissue in a 62-year-old man.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase 2 Deficiency Leads to Reduced Dominance-Related and Impulse-Control Behaviors
Mice lacking steroid 5α-reductase 2 show less aggression and better impulse control.
research Effects of Pre- and Post-Pubertal Dihydrotestosterone Treatment on Penile Length in 5α-Reductase Type 2 Deficiency
Dihydrotestosterone treatment can help penis growth in boys with 5α-reductase deficiency but doesn't fully normalize size after puberty.
research Amelioration of Androgenetic Alopecia by Algal Oligosaccharides Prepared by Deep-Sea Bacterium Biodegradation
Algal oligosaccharides help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth.
research Androgen Excess: A Hallmark of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Excess androgens may cause PCOS, not just be a symptom.
research Sex Hormones Modulate Pathogenic Processes in Experimental Traumatic Brain Injury
Sex hormones affect brain injury differently in males and females.
research Expression and Roles of Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory (StAR) Protein in Non-Classical, Extra-Adrenal, and Extra-Gonadal Cells and Tissues
The protein StAR is found in 17 different organs and can affect hair loss and brain functions, but its full role is not yet fully understood.
research Development of Prostate Cancer in a Patient with Primary Hypogonadism: Intratumoral Steroidogenesis in Prostate Cancer Tissues
Prostate cancer can progress even with low testosterone due to internal hormone production in the tumor.
research Application of Ostrich Antibodies to the Restoration of Hair Growth, a Preliminary and Case Report
Ostrich antibodies helped regrow hair in men with hair loss, but the application needs to be easier.
research Sex-Specific Difference of Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity in Response to Sex Neurosteroids
