A specific gene region can control targeted and responsive gene expression in mice, useful for skin disorder treatments.
research 5α-Reduced glucocorticoids: a story of natural selection
Natural 5α-reduced glucocorticoids might be anti-inflammatory with fewer side effects than current options.
research Activity of type 1 5α-reductase is greater in the follicular infrainfundibulum compared with the epidermis
The enzyme type 1 5α-reductase is more active in the hair follicle's lower part than in the skin's outer layer.
research The promoter of an androgen dependent gene in the hamster flank organ
Researchers found a gene in hamsters that responds to male hormones and may be indirectly controlled by them.
research 5alpha-reductase 2 inhibition impairs brain defeminization of male rats: Reproductive aspects
5alpha-reductase 2 is crucial for proper male brain development and sexual differentiation.
research Establishment of type II 5α-reductase over-expressing cell line as an inhibitor screening model

A 4kb fragment of the desmocollin 3 promoter targets gene expression to specific skin and hair follicle areas.
research Inhibition of 5α-Reductase Activity in SZ95 Sebocytes and HaCaT Keratinocytes In Vitro
The substance MK386 effectively blocked testosterone conversion and reduced cell growth in certain skin cells, but inhibiting 5α-reductase alone may not greatly improve acne.
research C19and C215β/5αMetabolite Ratios in Subjects Treated with the 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride: Comparison of Male Pseudohermaphrodites with Inherited 5α-Reductase Deficiency*
Finasteride may treat baldness but less effective for those with 5α-reductase deficiency.
research Co-operation between follicular ornithine decarboxylase and v-Ha-ras induces spontaneous papillomas and malignant conversion in transgenic skin
High levels of ODC and a mutant Ha-ras gene cause tumors in mice.
research Characterization of a new, inducible transgenic mouse model with GFP expression in melanocytes and their precursors
A new mouse model helps study melanocyte cells using GFP expression.
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.
