research Epigenetic Effects of Finasteride on Dopaminergic Signaling Pathways: A potential contributor to Post-Finasteride Syndrome
Finasteride may cause changes in dopamine-related genes, possibly leading to post-finasteride syndrome.
research The neurosteroidogenic enzyme 5α-reductase modulates the role of D1 dopamine receptors in rat sensorimotor gating
5α-reductase affects dopamine receptors linked to sensorimotor gating, which may help understand disorders like schizophrenia.
research Effects of dobutamine on cyclic AMP accumulation induced by the stimulation of dopamine receptors in rabbit retina in vitro
Dobutamine does not mimic dopamine at therapeutic doses but may at very high concentrations; microfilaments, not microtubules, are important for wound healing in Xenopus embryos.
research 5alpha-reductase inhibitors dampen L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia via normalization of dopamine D1-receptor signaling pathway and D1-D3 receptor interaction
Finasteride and dutasteride reduce unwanted movements from Parkinson's disease treatment by normalizing certain brain signals.
research Allopregnanolone is required for prepulse inhibition deficits induced by D1 dopamine receptor activation
Allopregnanolone is needed for certain brain processing issues caused by D1 dopamine receptor activation.
research Analysis of androgen receptor expression and activity in the mouse brain
Androgen receptors in the mouse brain may explain cognitive and mood changes in prostate cancer treatment.
research Cedrol mitigates hepatic lipid accumulation and adipocyte hypertrophy induced by corticosteroids through the inhibition of glucocorticoid receptor activity
Cedrol may help reduce liver fat and fat cell growth caused by corticosteroids.
research Transient Ca2+ entry by plasmalogen-mediated activation of receptor potential cation channel promotes AMPK activity
Plasmalogens activate a channel in cells that may stimulate hair growth.
research Regulation of itch-induced scratching by nucleus accumbens dopamine receptor-expressing neurons
Dopamine receptors in the brain influence itch-related scratching behavior.
research Dopamine is a novel, direct inducer of catagen in human scalp hair folliclesin vitro
Dopamine stops hair growth and pigment production in human scalp hair follicles.
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 Inhibition of 5α-reductase attenuates behavioral effects of D1-, but not D2-like receptor agonists in C57BL/6 mice
Finasteride reduces certain behaviors caused by D1-like receptor agonists but not by D2-like receptor agonists in mice.
research Drug repositioning using in silico compound profiling
Using computers to analyze drugs can find new uses for them, but actual experiments are needed to confirm these uses.

research Hedonic sensitivity to natural rewards is affected by prenatal stress in a sex-dependent manner
Prenatal stress changes how male and female rats enjoy rewards differently, linked to sex hormones.
research Effect of the 5α-reductase enzyme inhibitor dutasteride in the brain of intact and parkinsonian mice
Dutasteride may protect the brain in early Parkinson's disease.
research Finasteride inhibits epinephrine synthesis in humans: implication for sexual dysfunction
Finasteride may cause sexual dysfunction by reducing epinephrine levels.
research Human epithelial stem cell survival within their niche requires “tonic” cannabinoid receptor 1‐signalling—Lessons from the hair follicle
Cannabinoid receptor-1 signaling is essential for the survival and growth of human hair follicle stem cells.
research Isolation rearing-induced reduction of brain 5α-reductase expression: Relevance to dopaminergic impairments
Isolation stress in rats reduces brain enzyme levels, affecting dopamine function.
research The 5-alpha reductase inhibitor finasteride reduces dyskinesia in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease
Finasteride reduces movement issues in Parkinson's disease rats.
research Hormones and Absence Epilepsy☆
Stress and hormones like progesterone can affect absence seizures, but their effects change with different life stages.
research Activation of extrasynaptic δ-GABAA receptors globally or within the posterior-VTA has estrous-dependent effects on consumption of alcohol and estrous-independent effects on locomotion
δ-GABAA receptors affect alcohol consumption based on the estrous cycle and influence movement regardless of the cycle.
research Sex differences in the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis’ response to stress: an important role for gonadal hormones
Male and female bodies respond differently to stress, influenced by hormones and development stages, with implications for stress-related diseases.
research Calcineurin/Nfatc1 signaling links skin stem cell quiescence to hormonal signaling during pregnancy and lactation
Hormones during pregnancy and lactation keep skin stem cells inactive, preventing hair growth.
