research Detection of urine metabolites in polycystic ovary syndrome by UPLC triple-TOF-MS
Researchers found potential urine markers for polycystic ovary syndrome, including testosterone-glucuronide and 11α-hydroxyprogesterone, which may help diagnose the condition.
research Pharmacokinetic parameters and mechanisms of inhibition of rat type 1 and 2 steroid 5α-reductases: determinants for different in vivo activities of GI198745 and finasteride in the rat 3 3Abbreviations: r5AR1, rat 5α-reductase 1; r5AR2, rat 5α-reductase 2; and DHT, dihydrotestosterone.
GI198745 is more potent and longer-lasting than finasteride, potentially better for treating hair loss.

research Mechanism of Salutary Effects of Finasteride on Post-traumatic Immune/Inflammatory Response
Finasteride reduces inflammation and improves immune response after trauma by altering hormone levels.
research Finasteride in biological fluids: extraction and separation by a graphitized carbon black cartridge and quantification by high-performance liquid chromatography
Method accurately measures finasteride in human plasma.
research FCE 28260, a new 5α-reductase inhibitor: In vitro and in vivo effects
FCE 28260 is a stronger and longer-lasting inhibitor of 5α-reductase than finasteride, which may make it a better treatment for certain medical conditions.
research Thiolated and PEGylated silica nanoparticle delivery to hair follicles
Using longer PEG chains helps nanoparticles penetrate hair follicles better, improving drug delivery for conditions like alopecia.
research The Phytocannabinoid (–)-Cannabidiol Operates as a Complex, Differential Modulator of Human Hair Growth: Anti-Inflammatory Submicromolar versus Hair Growth Inhibitory Micromolar Effects
CBD can either reduce inflammation and not affect hair growth at low levels or inhibit hair growth at high levels.

Researchers developed a new method to find substances in herbs that can block a specific enzyme linked to hair loss.
research Synthesis and Pharmacological Evaluation of New Progesterone Esters as 5.ALPHA.-Reductase Inhibitors
Smaller substituents at C-17 enhance the inhibitory activity of progesterone derivatives on 5alpha-reductase.
research Rat steroid 5α-reductase kinetic characteristics: Extreme pH-dependency of the type II isozyme in prostate and epididymis homogenates
The activity of a specific rat enzyme in the prostate and epididymis is highly dependent on the acidity level.
research Quantitative proteomic analysis of dermal papilla from male androgenetic alopecia comparing before and after treatment with low‐level laser therapy
Low-level laser therapy improves hair growth and dermal papilla cell function.
research Association of the KAP 8.1 Gene Polymorphisms with Fibre Traits in Inner Mongolian Cashmere Goats
KAP8.1 gene variations affect cashmere weight in Inner Mongolian goats.
