research Finasteride in the Treatment of Hirsutism
Finasteride reduces hair growth in women with hirsutism and works better with electrolysis.
research Phenomenology of polymorphism: The topological pressure–temperature phase relationships of the dimorphism of finasteride
Finasteride's two forms have different stability based on temperature and pressure.
research Big head? Bald head! Skull expansion: alternative model for the primary mechanism of AGA
The paper suggests that hair loss might be caused by skull growth, not just DHT's effect on hair follicles, and calls for more research.
research Proscar@ (Finasteride) inhibits 5α-reductase activity in the ovaries and testes of Lytechinus variegatus Lamarck (Echinodermata: Echinoidea)
Proscar (finasteride) blocks 5α-reductase in sea urchin ovaries and testes, suggesting potential treatment for androgen-related conditions.
research Chapter 23. Therapeutic Control of Androgen Action
Understanding how androgens work is key for creating new treatments for prostate issues and hair/skin conditions.
research Pharmacological Options for Treatment of Hyperandrogenic Disorders
Different drugs can treat high male hormone levels in women, but they have various effects and some may harm a fetus.
research Effect of MK-386, a novel inhibitor of type 1 5 alpha-reductase, alone and in combination with finasteride, on serum dihydrotestosterone concentrations in men.
MK-386 and finasteride together effectively reduce DHT levels, potentially treating acne and male pattern baldness.
research Relative binding affinity of novel steroids to androgen receptors in hamster prostate
New steroids were effective in blocking male hormone receptors in hamster prostates.
research Determination of rat 5α-reductase type 1 isozyme activity and its inhibition by novel steroidal oxazolines
New steroidal compounds moderately block an enzyme related to testosterone conversion, less effectively than finasteride.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Steroid Hormones
Steroid hormones are crucial for body functions and have various medical uses, but their misuse can lead to dependence.
research Expression of type 1 5α-reductase and metabolism of testosterone in reconstructed human epidermis (SkinEthic®): a new model for screening skin-targeted androgen modulators
The study created a new method to test drugs that affect hormone processing in skin.
research Leydig Cell Hyperplasia and Adenomas in Mice Treated with Finasteride, a 5α-Reductase Inhibitor: A Possible Mechanism
Finasteride causes abnormal growth in male mice cells at high doses.
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 Structural studies of two solid steroid compounds
Androsterone and finasteride have different solid forms, with new findings correcting previous errors and identifying a new form.
research A Review of U.S. Patents in the Field of Organic Process Development Published during July and August 2004
The document reviews 20 U.S. patents from July and August 2004 about new drug forms, cancer treatments, aroma chemicals, statin drugs, and various chemical production methods.
research HPLC Profiling and Insilco studies of Chochurus olitoris (Jute) Leave Fractions against Steroid 5α-Reductase 2 (SRD5α2)
Jute leaves may help reduce DHT levels, potentially aiding in conditions like hair loss and prostate issues.
research 5α- Reductase Inhibitors in Prostate Cancer: An Overview
5α-reductase inhibitors like Finasteride and Dutasteride may help manage prostate cancer by blocking testosterone conversion.
research Cosmeceuticals
Isotretinoin and tazarotene help treat acne, while minoxidil and finasteride promote hair growth.
research A systematic study of determination and validation of finasteride impurities using liquid chromatography
Method found to accurately identify finasteride impurities using liquid chromatography.
