Finasteride caused enlarged breast tissue in a 62-year-old man.
research Inhibition of steroid 5 alpha-reductase with finasteride: sleep-related erections, potency, and libido in healthy men.
Finasteride doesn't affect erections much, but may decrease libido in men.
research Effects of Gonadal Steroids on Melanocytes in Developing Hamsters
Androgens increase pigmentation in young hamsters, but estrogens can reverse this effect.
research 5α-reduction of epitestosterone is catalysed by human SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 and increases androgen receptor transactivation
5α-reductases increase epitestosterone's effect on androgen receptors.
research Circulating Androgen Concentrations and Risk of Incident Heart Failure in Older Men: The Cardiovascular Health Study
Lower testosterone levels may increase heart failure risk in older men.
research Vanillic Acid Stimulates Anagen Signaling via the PI3K/Akt/ β-Catenin Pathway in Dermal Papilla Cells
Vanillic acid from wheat bran may promote hair growth by activating certain cell pathways and reversing hormone-related hair loss.
research Post-Finasteride Syndrome: An Induced Delusional Disorder with the Potential of a Mass Psychogenic Illness?
PFS might be a delusional disorder with potential to become mass psychogenic illness.
research Steroid 5α-reductase 2 deficiency leads to reduced dominance-related and impulse-control behaviors
Mice lacking steroid 5α-reductase 2 show less aggression and better impulse control.
research Equine 5α-reductase activity and expression in epididymis
The equine epididymis mainly uses type 1 5α-reductase, and both finasteride and dutasteride can inhibit its activity.
research Changes in the sebaceous gland in patients with male pattern hair loss (androgenic alopecia)
Sebaceous glands in male pattern hair loss patients have more lobules and might cause early hair growth phase shifts.
research Oral administration of low-dose bisphenol A promotes proliferation of ventral prostate and upregulates prostaglandin D2 synthase expression in adult rats
Low doses of BPA can increase prostate growth and change hormone levels in adult rats.
research Screening of synthetic and natural product databases: Identification of novel androgens and antiandrogens
Researchers found new potential treatments for conditions related to the androgen receptor, like male hormonal contraception, by testing thousands of compounds.
research Tissue-Selective Regulation of Androgen-Responsive Genes
The same hormone can affect gene expression differently in various tissues, which could lead to new treatments for conditions like hair loss.
research Effects of topical application of EGCG on testosterone-induced hair loss in a mouse model
Applying EGCG on the skin can prevent hair loss caused by testosterone in mice.
research Influence of interleukin‐1α on androgen receptor expression and cytokine secretion by cultured human dermal papilla cells
Interleukin‐1 α reduces androgen receptor levels and increases certain cytokines in human scalp cells.
research Is androgenic alopecia a result of endocrine effects on the vasculature?
Male-pattern baldness might be caused by the effect of hormones on scalp blood vessels.
research Prostate-Sparing Effects in Primates of the Potent Androgen 7α-Methyl-19-Nortestosterone: A Potential Alternative to Testosterone for Androgen Replacement and Male Contraception1
MENT could be a better option than testosterone for male hormone therapy and birth control because it works well at lower doses and has fewer side effects on the prostate.
