5-alpha reductase inhibitors may cause sexual side effects, breast complications, and other health risks in men with hair loss.
research 5 Alpha - Reductase and Metabolic Syndrome in PCOS Patients
A higher testosterone/dihydrotestosterone ratio in PCOS patients may indicate worse metabolic health.
research The effect of spironolactone on genital skin 5α-reductase activity
Spironolactone reduces the enzyme activity that converts testosterone to DHT, helping treat excessive hair growth in women.
research Safety and Tolerability of the Dual 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitor Dutasteride in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
Dutasteride is safe and effective for treating hair loss, but may decrease libido.
research Effects on Steroid 5-Alpha Reductase Gene Expression of Thai Rice Bran Extracts and Molecular Dynamics Study on SRD5A2
Thai rice bran extracts, especially from Tubtim Chumphae rice, can significantly reduce the activity of hair loss genes, with x-tocopherol showing potential as an anti-hair loss product.
research Synthesis of N-Substituted 3-Oxo-17b- carboxamide-4-aza-5a-androstanes and the Tautomerism of 3-Oxo-4-aza-5-androstenes
Researchers made two new compounds that could be used for medicine.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α 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 Crystal Structure of 3-Oxo-4-Aza-5-Alpha-Androstone-17 β-Tert-Butyl Carboxamide with an O···H–(C, N) Acceptor Four-Center Hydrogen Bond
The research shows that hydrogen bonds greatly affect the crystal structure of a Finasteride derivative.
research Clinical efficacy of oral administration of finasteride at a dose of 2.5 mg/day in women with female pattern hair loss
Finasteride 2.5 mg/day can effectively treat female hair loss.
research Eclipta prostrata promotes the induction of anagen, sustains the anagen phase through regulation of FGF-7 and FGF-5
Eclipta prostrata helps hair growth and maintains the growth phase by affecting certain growth factors.
research Efficacy and safety of topical 5% minoxidil in treatment of androgenetic alopecia
Topical 5% minoxidil is effective and safe for treating androgenetic alopecia, especially in younger patients with early-stage hair loss.
research Testosterone 5.ALPHA.-Reductase Inhibitory Active Constituents of Piper nigrum Leaf
Black pepper leaf extract contains compounds that can block testosterone effects and promote hair growth.
research Analysis of the microRNA expression profile of normal human dermal papilla cells treated with 5α-dihydrotestosterone
DHT affects hair follicle cells by changing microRNA levels, leading to less cell growth and more cell death.
research A 5α-reductase inhibitor, finasteride, increases differentiation and proliferation of embryonal carcinoma cell-derived-neural cells
research A Randomized Controlled, Single-Observer Blinded Study on the Safety and Efficacy of a Combination of 678nm Helmet-Type Low-level Laser Therapy and Topical Minoxidil 5% Versus Topical Minoxidil 5% Alone in the Treatment of Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Using a laser helmet with Minoxidil works better for male hair loss than Minoxidil alone, with no extra side effects.
research Sebaceous gland abnormalities in fatty acyl CoA reductase 2 (Far2) null mice result in primary cicatricial alopecia
Deleting the Far2 gene in mice causes sebaceous gland issues and patchy hair loss.
