research Azasteroids as inhibitors of testosterone 5α-reductase in mammalian skin
Certain 4-azasteroids are effective at blocking the enzyme that processes testosterone in human skin and could help treat acne, excessive hair growth, and male pattern baldness.
research The Case of the Elusive Androgen
The patient's high testosterone was reduced by a medication that suppresses gonadotropin.
research 5α-reductase activity in the prostate
Blocking the enzyme 5α-reductase can shrink the prostate and help treat enlarged prostate issues.
research A Novel Androgen Receptor Gene Mutation in a 46,XY Patient: Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome
A new gene mutation causes complete androgen insensitivity in a 16-year-old with a female appearance.
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 Central 5-alpha reduction of testosterone is required for testosterone's inhibition of the hypothalamo-pituitary–adrenal axis response to restraint stress in adult male rats
Testosterone needs to be converted to DHT to reduce stress response in male rats.
research 5alpha-reductase inhibitors/finasteride.
research Androgen levels and apoptosis in the testis during postnatal development of finasteride-treated male rat offspring
Finasteride treatment in male rats can reduce fertility and affect sperm development in their offspring.
research Clinical symptoms and sex steroid measurements in domestic ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) with hyperadrenocorticism
Neutered ferrets often develop hyperadrenocorticism, with symptoms like hair loss and lethargy, and androstenedione is a key indicator for diagnosis.
research Inhibition of 5α-Reductase Activity in SZ95 Sebocytes and HaCaT Keratinocytes In Vitro
The substance MK386 effectively blocked testosterone conversion and reduced cell growth in certain skin cells, but inhibiting 5α-reductase alone may not greatly improve acne.
research Re: Effect of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors on Sexual Function: A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials
5α-Reductase inhibitors can negatively impact sexual function.
research GYNECOMASTIA AFTER FINASTERIDE THERAPY
Finasteride may cause breast enlargement, low testosterone a risk factor.
research Chirurgie des schwannomes vestibulaires solitaires
Cyproterone acetate is a safe treatment that causes modest feminization in transgender female adolescents, and works better with added estrogens.
research Quercetin rescues dihydrotestosterone-treated human dermal papilla cells via SHP2/AKT signaling to suppress autophagy and apoptosis
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors (5ARIs) and Male Reproduction
5α-Reductase inhibitors can negatively affect male sexual function and, in some cases, significantly reduce sperm count, but these effects may be reversible.
research Homologous recombination induced by doxazosin mesylate and saw palmetto in the Drosophila wing‐spot test
Doxazosin mesylate and saw palmetto cause genetic changes in fruit flies.
research The effect of finasteride on spermatogenesis of Mesocricetus auratus
Finasteride causes sperm production decrease in Mesocricetus auratus.
research SAT-240 Type B Insulin Resistance Resulting in Hyperthecosis in a Postmenopausal Woman
A woman's severe insulin resistance improved with treatment, but she still had high testosterone levels due to ovarian issues.
research Apoptosis during the first wave of spermatogenesis in the testis of offspring’ rats (F1:Fin) that were born from females fertilized by males chronically treated with finasteride
research Sexual dysfunction in subjects treated with inhibitors of 5α-reductase for benign prostatic hyperplasia: a comprehensive review and meta-analysis
Men taking 5α-reductase inhibitors for enlarged prostate have a higher chance of experiencing reduced sexual desire and erectile dysfunction.
research PD23-06 CHANGE IN SEXUAL FUNCTION IN MEN WITH LUTS/BPH ASSOCIATED WITH LONG-TERM TREATMENT WITH DOXAZOSIN, FINASTERIDE, AND COMBINED THERAPY
Long-term treatment with finasteride or combined therapy worsens sexual function in men with urinary issues.
research Selective androgen receptor modulators: a critical appraisal
SARMs show promise but need more evidence to prove they're better than traditional androgens.
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.
