research 5α‐Reductase Isozymes and Androgen Actions in the Prostate
5α‐reductase isozymes are crucial for prostate development and health, and targeting them can help prevent and treat prostate issues.
research Helpful diagnostic markers of steroidogenesis for defining hyperandrogenemia in hirsute women
The study concluded that androstendione and DHEA are important for diagnosing high male hormone levels in women with excessive hair growth.
research Androgens and Parkinson’s disease: the role in humans and in experiment
Dutasteride shows promise as a potential treatment for Parkinson's disease.
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 Molecular basis of androgen action on human sexual desire
Testosterone significantly affects sexual desire in both men and women, but its impact on women is more complex and influenced by psychological factors.
research Market Analysis of 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
The market for these drugs is expected to grow.
research The inflammatory component of androgenetic alopecia
Androgenetic alopecia, a genetic disorder affecting up to 50% of adults, is caused by an excessive response to androgens leading to hair follicle shrinkage. Treatments include FDA-approved drugs, other therapies like low-dose oral minoxidil, and hair transplantation.
research Associations between semen quality and lower urinary tract symptoms in ageing male
The conclusion is that doctors should be careful when prescribing 5α-reductase inhibitors due to possible serious side effects, and they should discuss these risks with patients.
research Synthesis, antiproliferative, acute toxicity and assessment of antiandrogenic activities of some newly synthesized steroidal lactams
research Dihydrotestosterone-induced hair regrowth inhibition by activating androgen receptor in C57BL6 mice simulates androgenetic alopecia
DHT stops hair regrowth in mice, similar to human hair loss.
research Marked Suppression of Dihydrotestosterone in Men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia by Dutasteride, a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
Dutasteride more effectively lowers DHT levels in men with enlarged prostates than finasteride.
research PMON319 A Pure Androgen Secreting Adrenal - Cortical Tumor in a 13 Year Old Female
A 13-year-old girl's masculine symptoms improved after surgery for a rare adrenal tumor that produced male hormones.
research Bicalutamide: A review
Bicalutamide may help treat female pattern hair loss.
research Low-Dose Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) Suppresses Androgen Receptor (AR) and Its Splice Variant AR-V7 in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC) Cells
Low-dose DMSO may help treat castration-resistant prostate cancer by reducing key cancer cell receptors.
research Östrogen-induzierte Gynäkomastie nach Anwendung östrogenhaltiger Lokaltherapeutika
Estrogen treatments can cause unwanted effects in men and should be used cautiously.
research Efficacy of Skin Patting and Iontophoresis with Dutasteride Gel in Male and Menopausal Female Androgenetic Alopecia: A Pilot Study
The treatment improved hair growth and was well-received without side effects.
research MK-386, an Inhibitor of 5α-Reductase Type 1, Reduces Dihydrotestosterone Concentrations in Serum and Sebum without Affecting Dihydrotestosterone Concentrations in Semen1
MK-386 lowers DHT in blood and skin but not in semen.
research 5α-Reductase inhibitors alter steroid metabolism and may contribute to insulin resistance, diabetes, metabolic syndrome and vascular disease: a medical hypothesis
Some hair loss and prostate drugs might increase the risk of diabetes and heart disease.
research Androgenic alopecia--Its characteristics and perspectives
Male pattern baldness is mainly caused by a hormone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT), and drugs that can block this hormone might help prevent hair loss.
research Synthesis of avicequinone c and analogs toward the study of 5α-reductase inhibitory activity
2-Hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone is a strong 5α-reductase inhibitor.
research The Evaluation of the Role of Androgens in Hirsutism and the Use of a New Anti-androgen “Cyproterone Acetate” for Therapy
Cyproterone acetate combined with ethinyl estradiol significantly reduced hirsutism in women.
research ST008 Male androgenetic alopecia: A new treatment paradigm
New treatment improves male hair loss.
research New Methods of Endocrine Management of Prostatic Cancer
New hormonal therapies can help treat advanced prostate cancer but may cause testicular issues.
