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.
research Hair growth and androgen responses in hirsute women treated with continuous cyproterone acetate and cyclical ethinyl oestradiol
The treatment significantly reduced hair growth and male hormone levels in hirsute women.
research Retrospective evaluation of sex hormones and steroid hormone intermediates in dogs with alopecia
Most dogs with alopecia had higher than normal levels of certain hormones, but hair loss might not always be linked to these hormone changes.
research Features of steroidogenesis and arterial hypertension in men in different types of "physiological" male hyperandrogenism
Men with high testosterone may have higher morning blood pressure, unlike those with high DHT.
research Other Antiandrogens
Spironolactone works well for acne and hirsutism, isotretinoin is very effective for acne and may have antiandrogenic effects, and 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors should be considered antiandrogens.
research A preliminary study of the effect of 11a-hydroxyprogesterone on the hair growth in men suffering from androgenetic alopecia.
The treatment helped promote hair growth in men with androgenetic alopecia.
research Intraethnic variation in steroid-5-alpha-reductase polymorphisms in prostate cancer patients: a potential factor implicated in 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor treatment
Genetic differences within ethnic groups may affect prostate cancer treatment effectiveness.
research 8162 A Unique Presentation of Ovarian Steroid Cell Tumor Causing Hyperandrogenism in a Postmenopausal Woman
Surgical removal of a rare ovarian tumor improved symptoms and hormone levels in a postmenopausal woman.
research 17‐beta estradiol and prednisolone as potential stimulators of hair re‐growth in chemotherapy‐induced human hair follicle damage via ‘dystrophic catagen’ promotion?
17-beta estradiol and prednisolone may help regrow hair damaged by chemotherapy.
research Megestrol Acetate Increases the Proliferation, Migration, and Adipogenic Differentiation of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells via Glucocorticoid Receptor
Megestrol acetate helps fat-derived stem cells grow, move, and turn into fat cells through a specific receptor.
research Serial Hydrolysis for the Simultaneous Analysis of Catecholamines and Steroids in the Urine of Patients with Alopecia Areata
A new method was created to analyze certain chemicals in the urine of alopecia areata patients, revealing they have higher metanephrine content. This method can also be used for other related diseases.
research Nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia and the heterozygote carrier
Identifying nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia and carriers of CYP21 mutations is challenging, and genetic counseling is recommended due to their prevalence.
research Androgenic disorders of women: Diagnostic and therapeutic decision making
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and tailored long-term treatment can effectively manage androgenic disorders in women, improving patient care outcomes.
research Design, synthesis and anti-tumor evaluation of novel thiohydantoin congeners as androgen receptor antagonists with in vivo study.
A new compound, 3a, effectively fights prostate cancer better than finasteride.
research Treatment of androgen excess in females: Yesterday, today and tomorrow
The document concludes that treating androgen excess needs patience, managing expectations is important, and many drugs used are not officially approved, suggesting cosmetic options for mild cases.
research Isolation and Structural Characterization of Degradation Products of Finasteride by Preparative HPLC, HRMS and 2D NMR
Finasteride forms three new products under acidic stress.
research Anti-Androgen Treatment of Hirsute Women: A Study on Stress Responses
The treatment reduced hair growth and testosterone in women with excess hair and had some effects on stress responses.
research Progress on clinical applications of chlormadinone acetate
Chlormadinone acetate is useful for birth control and treating various hormonal issues.
research Detection of urine metabolites in polycystic ovary syndrome by UPLC triple-TOF-MS
Researchers found potential urine markers for polycystic ovary syndrome, including testosterone-glucuronide and 11α-hydroxyprogesterone, which may help diagnose the condition.
research The gut‐microbiota‐brain axis: Focus on gut steroids
Gut bacteria affect steroid levels, influencing health conditions and potential treatments.
research An overview on 5α-reductase inhibitors
5α-reductase inhibitors, like Finasteride and Dutasteride, help manage benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research In silico screening of effective inhibitor of 5α-reductase type 1 for androgenic alopecia treatment
β-sitosterol and brassicasterol may help treat hair loss.
research 1,25-(OH)2D3 promotes hair growth by inhibiting NLRP3/IL-1β and HIF-1α/IL-1β signaling pathways
1,25-(OH)2D3 helps hair grow by blocking certain harmful signals.
research Hypertrichosis and topical corticosteroid use
Prolonged use of topical corticosteroids can cause excessive hair growth.
research 3α-androstanediol, but not testosterone, attenuates age-related decrements in cognitive, anxiety, and depressive behavior of male rats
3α-androstanediol helps reduce age-related cognitive and mood declines in male rats, unlike testosterone.
research Dihydrotestosterone Stimulates 5a-Reductase Activity in Pubic Skin Fibroblasts*
Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
