research C19and C215β/5αMetabolite Ratios in Subjects Treated with the 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride: Comparison of Male Pseudohermaphrodites with Inherited 5α-Reductase Deficiency*
Finasteride may treat baldness but less effective for those with 5α-reductase deficiency.
research Impacto de dutasteride en la espematogénesis y el estrés oxidativo en ratas.
Dutasteride does not seem to change rat spermatogenesis or oxidative stress.
research LINCS Dataset-Based Repositioning of Dutasteride as an Anti-Neuroinflammation Agent
Dutasteride may help reduce brain inflammation and improve cognition.
research Improvement of Tissue Survival of Skin Flaps by 5α-Reductase Inhibitors: Possible Involvement of Nitric Oxide and Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase
5α-reductase inhibitors may help skin flaps survive better by affecting nitric oxide.
research Global expression profile and global genome methylation signatures in male patients with androgenetic alopecia
Differences in gene expression and methylation patterns found in AGA patients suggest potential targets for future treatments.
research Fine mapping of the human AR/EDA2R locus in androgenetic alopecia
Genetic marker rs12558842 strongly linked to male hair loss.
research Key targets of hormonal treatment of prostate cancer. Part 2: the androgen receptor and 5α-reductase
Blocking DHT production more strongly may help control advanced prostate cancer and improve quality of life.
research SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein S1-Mediated Endothelial Injury and Pro-Inflammatory State Is Amplified by Dihydrotestosterone and Prevented by Mineralocorticoid Antagonism
Spironolactone may help reduce COVID-19 severity in men by blocking harmful effects of certain hormones.
research Dutasteride reduces alcohol’s sedative effects in men in a human laboratory setting and reduces drinking in the natural environment
Dutasteride makes alcohol less sedating and may lead to less drinking in men.
research Characterization of recombinant human liver dehydroepiandrosterone sulfotransferase with minoxidil as the substrate
Human liver enzyme DHEA ST helps process minoxidil.
research Identifying the Active Components and Mechanisms of Persicae Semen in Treating Androgenetic Alopecia: Insights from Network Pharmacology and Experimental Evaluations
Amygdalin in Persicae Semen may help treat hair loss by promoting hair growth and regulating key pathways.
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 Androgen Receptor–Mediated Paracrine Signaling Induces Regression of Blood Vessels in the Dermal Papilla in Androgenetic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness is linked to higher levels of a certain receptor in the scalp, which leads to the shrinking of blood vessels and hair loss. Early treatment targeting this receptor could be more effective.
research Serum Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone and Incidence and Progression of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms: Results From the REDUCE Study
Higher testosterone and DHT levels are not linked to urinary symptoms in men.
research The clinical applications of five-alpha reductase inhibitors.
Five-alpha reductase inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, can treat enlarged prostates, improve urination, reduce need for prostate surgery, and lower the risk of prostate cancer, but may increase the risk of higher grade prostate cancer. They can also treat male pattern baldness.
research Melatonin vitamin C-based nanovesicles for treatment of androgenic alopecia: Design, characterization and clinical appraisal
Melatonin vitamin C-based nanovesicles improved hair growth and reduced hair loss in androgenic alopecia patients.
research Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia with Low Dose Oral Minoxidil Monotherapy Compared to Combination Therapy with Dutasteride or Finasteride
Low-dose oral minoxidil alone is effective for treating hair loss, but combining it with dutasteride or finasteride may offer better results.
research Sleep quality in men with androgenetic alopecia
research Inhibition of the Androgen Receptor by Antisense Oligonucleotides Regulates the Biological Activity of Androgens in SZ95 Sebocytes
Blocking the androgen receptor in skin cells reduces their growth response to male hormones, suggesting a possible treatment for skin conditions linked to androgens.
research 5α-Reductase Isoenzymes: From Neurosteroid Biosynthesis to Neuropsychiatric Outcomes
Finasteride and dutasteride may cause depression and anxiety, especially in younger men.
research Sexual dysfunction in men taking systemic dermatologic medication: A systematic review
Some men taking finasteride for hair loss may experience sexual problems like erectile dysfunction and decreased sex drive, which can persist even after stopping the medication.
research Inflammatory markers and Lp(a) levels as cardiovascular risk factors in androgenetic alopecia
AGA patients have higher heart disease risk.
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 ADM Scaffolds Generate a Pro-regenerative Microenvironment During Full-Thickness Cutaneous Wound Healing Through M2 Macrophage Polarization via Lamtor1
ADM scaffolds help skin heal by promoting a healing-type immune response.
research Improving selective androgen receptor modulator discovery and preclinical evaluation
We need better ways to test and understand SARMs to make safer and more effective treatments.
