research Chemical Mechanism of the Covalent Modification of 5.alpha.-Reductases by Finasteride as Probed by Secondary Tritium Isotope Effects
Finasteride modifies 5-alpha-reductases through a two-step process, affecting inhibitor potency and possibly causing side effects.
research The use of anabolic androgenic steroids: A focus on polypharmacy
Using high doses and multiple drugs with steroids is risky and should be prevented.
research Effect of a novel steroid (PM-9) on the inhibition of 5α-reductase present in Penicillium crustosum broths
PM-9 and finasteride effectively inhibit the enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT.
research The Development of BL 7660 as an Anti‐Acne Agent
BRL 7660, once studied for male contraception, showed promise as an acne treatment but was not developed further due to competing drugs.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
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.
research A Preliminary Assessment of Steroid Reproductive Hormones in Archaeological Human Hair Utilizing a Modified Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) Technique
Steroid hormones can be preserved in ancient hair, revealing insights into past health and fertility.
research Structural basis for the catalysis and inhibition of human steroid 5α‐reductase 2
The research gives new understanding on how human steroid 5α-reductases work and how drugs like finasteride inhibit them, which could help in creating new drugs.

Both treatments reduced androgen levels and hair growth in women with hirsutism.
research Alterations in androgen conjugate levels in women and men with alopecia
People with hair loss may have different levels of certain hormones due to changes in hormone processing.

research PROCESS VALIDATION OF BETA-SITOSTEROL HAIR GEL FORMULATION AND EVALUATION OF 5 ALPHA REDUCTASE INHIBITION IN VITRO FOR THE TREATMENT OF ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
The β-sitosterol hair gel is effective and promising for treating hair loss.
research Rational Design of a Topical Androgen Receptor Antagonist for the Suppression of Sebum Production with Properties Suitable for Follicular Delivery
A new compound was created in 2010 that can control oil production when applied to the skin, and its effects are completely reversible after two weeks.
research Gene expression of type 2 17β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in scalp hairs of hirsute women
Hirsute women have lower type 2 17β-HSD enzyme levels, which improve with treatment.
research Testosterone and doping control
The document concludes that better biomarkers are needed to detect long-term oral testosterone use in athletes.
research Treatment of androgenetic alopecia in females in reproductive age with topical estradiolbenzoate, prednisolon and salicylic acid.
