research Prostate-Sparing Effects in Primates of the Potent Androgen 7α-Methyl-19-Nortestosterone: A Potential Alternative to Testosterone for Androgen Replacement and Male Contraception1
MENT could be a better option than testosterone for male hormone therapy and birth control because it works well at lower doses and has fewer side effects on the prostate.
research 17α-Acetoxy-6-bromo-16β-methylpregna-4,6-diene-3,20-dione
A new compound with strong antiandrogenic effects was found, potentially useful for treating conditions like acne and prostate cancer.
research In vitro [7-3H]-testosterone metabolism by the rat ventral prostate—Effect of some exogenous compounds
research Long-term detection of methyltestosterone (ab-) use by a yeast transactivation system
A yeast-based test can detect the steroid methyltestosterone in urine longer than traditional methods.
research Identification of xenobiotics interfering with 5 α -reductase (SRD5A2) activity
MK-0773 is a moderate inhibitor of the SRD5A2 enzyme.
research Synthesis and Study of Some 17a-aza-D-homo Steroids as 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
The research found that compound 6, a newly created steroid, is more effective at inhibiting 5α-reductase (an enzyme) than current treatments, suggesting it could be a better option for treating urinary tract symptoms in men.
research Synthesis of novel andostane-N-cyclohexyl-17-carboxamides, and their effect on the 5α-reductase isoform 2, the androgen receptor, and androgen-dependent glands
New compounds were made and tested, with compound 6 showing potential for treating prostate-related diseases.
research Effects of Intramuscular Testosterone Undecanoate on Body Composition and Bone Mineral Density in Female-to-Male Transsexuals
Testosterone undecanoate increases lean mass and causes various physical changes in female-to-male transsexuals.
research Crystal Structure of 17-.BETA.-Benzoyloxy-16-.BETA.-methylpregna-4,6-diene-3,20-dione.
A new antiandrogen compound was made and its detailed three-dimensional shape was described.
research A Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Pilot Trial on the Effects of Testosterone Undecanoate Plus Dutasteride or Placebo on Muscle Strength, Body Composition, and Metabolic Profile in Transmen
Testosterone with dutasteride improves muscle strength and body composition in trans men.
research 5 alpha-reductase inhibition by a new synthetic steroid (PM-9) in cultures of Penicillium crustosum.
PM-9, like finasteride, may help treat certain diseases by blocking a key enzyme.
research Detectability of oxandrolone, metandienone, clostebol and dehydrochloromethyltestosterone in urine after transdermal application
Transdermal exposure to certain steroids can be detected in urine for up to 14 days.
research Molecular docking simulation studies on potent butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors obtained from microbial transformation of dihydrotestosterone
Metabolite 7 is a strong inhibitor for Alzheimer's disease management.
research Crystal Structure and Synthesis of 17.ALPHA.-Acetoxy-6,7-epoxypregn-4-ene-3,20-dione
A new compound was made that might help treat diseases related to male hormones.
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 Anabolic effects of testosterone are preserved during inhibition of 5α-reductase
Testosterone can build muscle and bone without enlarging the prostate when a specific enzyme is blocked.
research Activity of steroid 4 and derivatives 4a–4f as inhibitors of the enzyme 5α-reductase 1
Compounds 4, 4b, and 4c effectively inhibit an enzyme linked to testosterone conversion without significant toxicity.
research Epitestosterone
Epitestosterone may counteract testosterone's effects and has roles in body processes like prostate growth and hair distribution.
research Analysis of Methyltestosterone and Testosterone Propionate in Dried Blood Spots After Transdermal Application
The method effectively detects MeT and TP in dried blood spots after cream application.
research Finasteride/testosterone
research 892 Behavior of the two circulating androgens testosterone and DHEA and their main intracellular metabolites in an androgen-sensitive sebocyte cell line
Testosterone affects androgen receptors and lipid storage in cells, while DHEA does not convert to testosterone or affect these receptors in the same way.
research 5α-reduction of epitestosterone is catalysed by human SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 and increases androgen receptor transactivation
5α-reductases increase epitestosterone's effect on androgen receptors.
research Functional characterization and unraveling the structural determinants of novel steroid hydroxylase CYP154C7 from Streptomyces sp. PAMC26508
