research Cloning, expression and characterization of rhesus macaque types 1 and 2 5alpha-Reductase: evidence for mechanism-Based inhibition by finasteride
Finasteride inhibits enzyme activity in rhesus macaques, suggesting they're useful for evaluating similar drugs.
research Predominant expression of 5 alpha-reductase type 1 in pubic skin from normal subjects and hirsute patients.
The main enzyme found in pubic skin that could be targeted to treat excessive hair growth is 5 alpha-R2.
research Pharmacophore and Atom Based 3D QSAR Studies on the Novel 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors
The developed model can predict effective 5-alpha-reductase enzyme inhibitors.
research The effect of finasteride on the male rat brain
Finasteride affects the male rat brain by reducing certain protein activation, but these effects may reverse after stopping the drug.
research An overview of herbal alternatives in androgenetic alopecia
Herbal alternatives like saw palmetto and green tea may offer safe, effective treatment for hormonal hair loss.
research Hormone therapy in acne
Hormonal treatment is effective for women with acne not helped by usual treatments, especially if they have hormonal imbalances.
research Computational drug discovery of potential 5α-reductase phytochemical inhibitors and hair growth promotion using in silico techniques
Jamogenin from plants may help hair growth and is a potential alternative to finasteride.
research A New Look at the 5?-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and hair loss, but may cause side effects in some patients.
research Multi-therapies in androgenetic alopecia: review and clinical experiences
Multiple treatments work best for hair loss.
research Hair-Growth Potential of Ginseng and Its Major Metabolites: A Review on Its Molecular Mechanisms
