Research
660-690 / 1000+ results 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 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.
![Synthesis and 5α-Reductase Inhibitory Activity of 8-Substituted Benzo[ƒ]Quinolinones Derived from Palladium Mediated Coupling Reactions](/images/research/2aedba8c-b0ac-4fa3-9ac7-9f375a016bba/small/15581.jpg)
research Synthesis and 5α-reductase inhibitory activity of 8-substituted benzo[ƒ]quinolinones derived from palladium mediated coupling reactions
Some newly made compounds can block an enzyme linked to hair loss and prostate growth, with one in particular being very selective.
research Sebaceous glands changes following topical application of citral
Citral increases sebaceous gland activity in male rats.
research ANTIANDROGENS AND THE SKIN
Antiandrogens can treat acne, hirsutism, and seborrhea by reducing sebum production and androgen action.
research Antiandrogen therapy for androgenetic alopecia
Antiandrogen therapy helps treat genetic hair loss.
research Effects of pre- and post-pubertal dihydrotestosterone treatment on penile length in 5α-reductase type 2 deficiency
Dihydrotestosterone treatment can help penis growth in boys with 5α-reductase deficiency but doesn't fully normalize size after puberty.
research Thyroid hormones and androgens differentially regulate gene expression in testes and ovaries of sexually mature Silurana tropicalis
Thyroid hormones and androgens affect gene expression in frog reproductive organs differently between males and females.
research Finasteride does not prevent bladder cancer: A secondary analysis of the Medical Therapy for Prostatic Symptoms Study
Finasteride does not prevent bladder cancer.
research Expression of AR, 5αR1 and 5αR2 in bladder urothelial carcinoma and relationship to clinicopathological factors
Androgens may influence bladder cancer progression by affecting cellular behavior.
research Invalidation of a commercially available human 5α-dihydrotestosterone immunoassay
The DHT immunoassay is unreliable due to high cross-reactivity with testosterone.

Vitamin C derivative reduces hair loss-related protein in cells.
research Establishment of SV40T-transformed human dermal papilla cells and identification of dihydrotestosterone-regulated genes by cDNA microarray
Researchers created a cell line to study hair growth and found specific genes affected by dihydrotestosterone.
research Plasma androsterone/epiandrosterone sulfates as markers of 5α-reductase activity: Effect of finasteride in normal men
Finasteride effectively lowers specific hormone levels, helping monitor treatment progress.
research Clinical and metabolic implications of obesity in prostate cancer: is testosterone a missing link?
Higher BMI and lower testosterone are linked to more aggressive prostate cancer.
research Uromedic® Pumpkin Seed Derived Δ7-Sterols, Extract and Oil Inhibit 5α-Reductases and Bind to Androgen Receptor <em>in Vitro</em>
Pumpkin seed products may help improve prostate and bladder health by blocking certain enzymes and hormone receptors.
research Testosterone Prevents Cutaneous Ischemia and Necrosis in Males Through Complementary Estrogenic and Androgenic Actions
