research Pregnancy and neonatal outcome with maternal exposure to finasteride: Case series
Exposure to the hair loss drug finasteride during pregnancy can cause genital anomalies in male babies, but not in female babies. It's best to avoid this drug in women who could potentially become pregnant.
research Post-finasteride syndrome and post-SSRI sexual dysfunction: two sides of the same coin?
PFS and PSSD are similar conditions with persistent sexual dysfunction after stopping medication.
research α-Mangostin, a safe and natural product as a candidate skin-whitening agent
α-Mangostin can naturally lighten skin by reducing melanin.
research Localisation of members of the notch system and the differentiation of vibrissa hair follicles: Receptors, ligands, and fringe modulators
Notch-related genes play a key role in the development and cycling of hair follicles.
research Hair and cord blood element levels and their relationship with air pollution, dietary intake, gestational diabetes mellitus, and infant neurodevelopment
Certain elements in maternal hair are linked to higher gestational diabetes risk and lower infant mental development.
research Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Topical Spironolactone versus Topical Minoxidil in the Treatment of Female Pattern Hair Loss: A Comparative, Clinical, and Trichoscopic Study
Topical spironolactone and minoxidil both effectively treat female hair loss, but spironolactone has fewer side effects.
research Impact of constant light exposure during pregnancy on skin of neonatal New Zealand rabbits: structural and ultrastructural study
Constant light exposure during pregnancy changes newborn rabbits' skin, affecting hair follicles, skin thickness, and pigment cells.
research The cellular basis of mechanosensory Merkel-cell innervation during development
BMP signaling is essential for the development of touch domes.
research Comparative Efficacy of 2% Minoxidil Alone Against Combination of 2% Minoxidil and Low-level Laser therapy in Female Pattern Hair Loss-A Randomized Controlled Trial in Chinese females
Using minoxidil with laser therapy is more effective for female hair loss than minoxidil alone.
research A keratin scaffold regulates epidermal barrier formation, mitochondrial lipid composition, and activity
Keratin is crucial for skin barrier formation and affects mitochondrial function.
research Advancements and challenges in stem cell transplantation for regenerative medicine
Stem cell transplantation shows promise for treating diseases but faces challenges like safety, ethics, and cost.
research Effects of non-contingent cocaine on 3alpha-androstanediol. I. Disruption of male sexual behavior
Cocaine impairs male sexual behavior and alters testosterone metabolism in the brain.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Overview
AGA is a genetic, hormonal hair loss treated with finasteride, minoxidil, and supplements, but new compounds are being developed.
research Effect of finasteride on behavioural arousal and somatosensory evoked potentials in fetal sheep
Finasteride may affect fetal brain development and increase arousal, but more research is needed for safety confirmation.
research External genitalia abnormalities in male rats exposed in utero to finasteride, a 5α-reductase inhibitor
Finasteride exposure in pregnancy causes genital abnormalities in male rats.
research Emerging smart microneedle technologies in psoriasis: convergence of nanocarriers, machine learning, and personalized delivery
Smart microneedles using advanced tech could improve psoriasis treatment.
research Plasma androsterone/epiandrosterone sulfates as markers of 5α-reductase activity: Effect of finasteride in normal men
Finasteride effectively lowers specific hormone levels, helping monitor treatment progress.
research Stress-Induced Deoxycorticosterone-Derived Neurosteroids Modulate GABAAReceptor Function and Seizure Susceptibility
Stress increases neurosteroids that help prevent seizures.
research Enhanced remyelination during late pregnancy: involvement of the GABAergic system
Late pregnancy helps repair brain damage in rats due to the GABAergic system.
research Age-related changes in brain and pituitary 5α-reductase with finasteride (Proscar) treatment
Finasteride affects prostate weights and pituitary activity differently with age.
research The influence of low dose finasteride, a type II 5α-reductase inhibitor, on circulating neuroactive steroids
Low dose finasteride decreases certain steroids, possibly increasing depression risk.
research Treatment with and withdrawal from finasteride alter ethanol intake patterns in male C57BL/6J mice: Potential role of endogenous neurosteroids?
Finasteride affects alcohol intake in male mice, possibly due to neurosteroids.
research Neuroactive Steroids and Ethanol Exposure: Relevance to Ethanol Sensitivity and Alcohol Use Disorders Risk
Neuroactive steroids may affect the risk and treatment of alcohol use disorders.
research The dose‐response of percutaneous oestradiol implants on the skeletons of postmenopausal women
Higher doses of oestradiol implants improve bone density in postmenopausal women.
research Effects of maintaining solstice light and temperature on reproductive activity, coat growth, plasma prolactin and melatonin in goats
Goat reproductive activity and coat growth are affected by light and temperature, with temperature altering prolactin levels and hair growth, but not melatonin or estrus onset.
research Recent Advances in the Chemistry and Pharmacological Activity of New Steroidal Antiandrogens and 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New compounds show promise for treating hair loss, enlarged prostate, and prostate cancer, with some being more effective and having different side effects than current treatments.
research Col4a2-eGFPmouse model reveals the molecular and functional dynamics of basement membrane remodelling in hair follicle morphogenesis
Scientists made a mouse that shows how a specific protein in the skin changes and affects hair growth and shape.
research Oral contraceptives and risk of breast cancer in women aged 20–54 years
Long-term use of oral contraceptives, especially starting before age 20, may increase the risk of early-onset breast cancer.
research Clinical Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Finasteride
Finasteride helps regrow hair and shrink prostate by reducing DHT, with some sexual side effects.
