research Testosterone alters iron metabolism and stimulates red blood cell production independently of dihydrotestosterone
Testosterone boosts red blood cell production and changes iron metabolism without needing dihydrotestosterone.
research Further errors in polymorph identification: furosemide and finasteride
Errors found in identifying furosemide and finasteride polymorphs due to incomplete data.
research Determination of the potency of a novel saw palmetto supercritical CO2 extract (SPSE) for 5α-reductase isoform II inhibition using a cell-free in vitro test system
The saw palmetto extract effectively inhibits an enzyme linked to prostate issues, showing promise for prostate health.
research High-throughput and direct measurement of androgen levels using turbulent flow chromatography liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (TFC-LC-TQMS) to discover chemicals that modulate dihydrotestosterone production in human prostate cancer cells
Researchers found four natural compounds that can change DHT levels in prostate cancer cells.

research Use of Topical Finasteride in Hirsutism: A Double-blind, Randomized Clinical Trial on Women
Topical finasteride didn't significantly reduce facial hair, but patients felt it helped.
research Flutamide was more effective than finasteride for idiopathic hirsutism
Flutamide worked better than finasteride for reducing excessive hair growth in women, but had more side effects.
research 0192 Estrogenic effects of 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors in male androgenetic alopecia patients
research Screen steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors in vitro by high performance liquid chromatography

research Finasteride in the treatment of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia: a review
Finasteride effectively reduces prostate size and lowers surgery risk in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Curcumin derivatives inhibit testicular 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 3
Curcumin and its derivatives can block an enzyme important for making testosterone, with one derivative being particularly strong.
research Finasteride
Finasteride helps treat male hair loss but may lower sex drive.
research Identification of a Rare Variant in the SRD5A2 Gene in Siblings With 46,XY Disorders of Sexual Development
A rare gene variant causes sexual development issues in siblings, needing personalized treatment.
research Markers of peripheral androgen action in vivo and in vitro
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is crucial for conditions like male-pattern baldness and acne, and measuring a byproduct, androstanediol glucuronide, is a better way to assess DHT's effects than DHT blood levels.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors and Chemoprevention: The PCPT and Beyond
5α-reductase inhibitors can reduce prostate cancer risk but may increase high-grade tumors, needing more research.
research Biotransformation of Finasteride by Ocimum sanctum L., and tyrosinase inhibitory activity of transformed metabolites: Experimental and computational insights

research Effect of Low-Dose Finasteride on Serum PSA Concentrations
Low-dose finasteride lowers PSA levels, which can make prostate cancer harder to detect.
research Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Action of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors May Be Mediated by Dehydroepiandrosterone. Letter.
Certain drugs like Dutasteride and Finasteride might help fight SARS-CoV-2 by increasing levels of a steroid called DHEA, which can protect the heart and increase nitric oxide to counteract the virus.
