research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases
The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.
research Comparative GC-MS Based In vitro Assays of 5α-Reductase Activity Using Rat Liver S9 Fraction
The S9 fraction with GC-IDMS is effective for measuring 5α-reductase activity.
research Human type 3 5α-reductase is expressed in peripheral tissues at higher levels than types 1 and 2 and its activity is potently inhibited by finasteride and dutasteride
Type 3 5α-reductase is more common and finasteride and dutasteride strongly inhibit it.
research SERUM-CONCENTRATIONS OF Dehydroepyandrosterone-sulfate IN MEN WITH ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
Men with hair loss don't necessarily have higher levels of the hormone DHEA-S, but this hormone tends to decrease with age.
research Dihydrotestosterone, and Not Testosterone, Enhances the LPS-Induced Inflammatory Cytokine Gene Expression in Human Adipocytes
Dihydrotestosterone boosts inflammation in fat cells more than testosterone.
research (379) The Effect of 5-α Reductase Inhibitor on Male Reproductive Function
5-α reductase inhibitors do not significantly affect male reproductive function but may reduce semen volume.
research Metabolic study of androsta-1,4,6-triene-3,17-dione in horses using liquid chromatography/high resolution mass spectrometry
The study found that urine metabolites M1b or M4 are the best indicators of ATD use in horses, with detection possible up to 77 hours in urine and 28 hours in blood.
research 5α-Reductase inhibitors in men aged 50 years or older with androgenetic alopecia: A retrospective study
5ARI treatment improves hair growth in older men with minimal side effects.
research In vitrometabolism of dehydroepiandrosterone and testosterone by canine hair follicle cells
Canine hair follicle cells metabolize DHEA and testosterone differently than human cells.
research Δ5-3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Activity in Sebaceous Glands of Scalp in Male-Pattern Baldness
research Evaluation of Sex Hormone Levels in Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Patients Treated with 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitor (Finasteride) in Amara city/Iraq
Finasteride effectively reduces DHT and E2 levels, helping with prostate enlargement.
research Female Androgenic Alopecia
research BH07: Testosterone deficiency in men with female pattern hair loss
Low testosterone levels may contribute to female pattern hair loss in men.
research The Antiandrogens
research Selective non-steroidal inhibitors of 5α-reductase type 1
Selective non-steroidal inhibitors of 5α-reductase type 1 can help treat DHT-related disorders.
research Muscle pain in a woman with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency resolved with testosterone therapy. A case report with 10 years of follow-up
Testosterone therapy improved symptoms in a woman with congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research SERUM-CONCENTRATIONS OF DEHYDROEPYAN- DROSTERONE-SULFATE IN MEN WITH ANDROGE- NETIC ALOPECIA
Men with androgenetic alopecia do not have elevated DHEA-S levels.
research An update on the use of 5alpha-reductase inhibitors
5alpha-reductase inhibitors help treat hair loss and prostate issues but may cause sexual side effects.
research Mechanism of action of androgen in hair follicles
Testosterone affects hair follicles differently across body sites, with beard hair follicles showing more activity of a specific enzyme and presence of androgen receptors compared to scalp hair.
research Studies on neurosteroids XXIV. Determination of neuroactive androgens, androsterone and 5α‐androstane‐3α,17β‐diol, in rat brain and serum using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
The methods accurately measured brain androgens, showing most 5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol comes from outside the brain, while androsterone is both transported and made in the brain.
research Enhancement of Intermittent Androgen Ablation Therapy by Finasteride Administration in Animal Models
Finasteride may improve prostate cancer therapy by enhancing testosterone's benefits and reducing risks.
research Pharmacodynamic modeling of finasteride, a 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor.
Finasteride, a drug that changes testosterone to a different hormone, was studied and its effects over time were modeled successfully.
research Estimation of serum aldosterone, free testosterone and DHEA-S and scalp androgen and aldosterone receptors in female androgenetic alopecia. Is the mystery solved?
High aldosterone and free testosterone levels link to female hair loss; testing aldosterone may predict hypertension risk.
research Testosterone Metabolism in Human Skin Cells in vitro and Its Interaction with Estradiol and Dutasteride
Different skin cells process testosterone differently, and certain drugs can change this process, possibly helping treat acne and hair loss.
research A Natural Inhibitor, 1′S-1′-Acetoxychavicol Acetate, Against Testosterone-Induced Alopecia via NADPH Oxidase Regulation
1′S-1′-Acetoxychavicol acetate may help treat hair loss by reducing oxidative stress.
research Testosterone metabolism in the skin. A review of its function in androgenetic alopecia, acne vulgaris, and idiopathic hirsutism including recent studies with antiandrogens
