Researchers identified promising inhibitors for the BRD4 protein, including finasteride and amentoflavone.
research Rapid Characterization of the Functional and Pharmacological Consequences of Cantú Syndrome KATPChannel Mutations in Intact Cells
Kir6.1 mutations in Cantú syndrome increase channel sensitivity and hyperpolarization, while SUR2B mutations do not.
research In silico screening of effective inhibitor of 5α-reductase type 1 for androgenic alopecia treatment
β-sitosterol and brassicasterol may help treat hair loss.
research Intraethnic variation in steroid-5-alpha-reductase polymorphisms in prostate cancer patients: a potential factor implicated in 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor treatment
