Finasteride temporarily lowers male rat fertility without affecting libido.
research The 5α-reductase inhibitor Dutasteride but not Finasteride protects dopamine neurons in the MPTP mouse model of Parkinson’s disease

Zinc supplementation may help improve treatment outcomes for chronic hepatitis C.
research Pro-Insulin-Like Growth Factor-II Ameliorates Age-Related Inefficient Regenerative Response by Orchestrating Self-Reinforcement Mechanism of Muscle Regeneration
Pro-IGF-II improves muscle repair in old mice.
research Relating neurosteroid modulation of inhibitory neurotransmission to behaviour
Neurosteroids can influence behavior by modulating brain inhibition, with potential for treating psychiatric disorders.
research From basal cell carcinoma morphogenesis to the alopecia induced by hedgehog inhibitors: connecting the dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
research Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel unsaturated carboxysteroids as human 5α-reductase inhibitors: A legitimate approach
New steroid compounds effectively inhibit 5α-reductase and may treat hair loss.
research Cutaneous manifestations associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors
Immune checkpoint inhibitors can cause skin issues but are linked to better cancer outcomes.
research The 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride increases suicide-related aggressive behaviors and blocks clozapine-induced beneficial effects in an animal model of schizophrenia
Finasteride raises suicide-linked aggression and stops clozapine's positive effects in schizophrenia animals.
research Platelet-derived growth factor regulates the proliferation and differentiation of human melanocytes in a differentiation-stage-specific manner
PDGF-BB helps young melanocytes grow but stops mature ones from growing, and it makes melanocytes more specialized.
research Adenosine A2B receptor: A pathogenic factor and a therapeutic target for sensorineural hearing loss
Blocking adenosine A2B receptor may prevent or treat hearing loss.
research A comprehensive review of biochemical factors in herbs and their constituent compounds in experimental studies on alopecia
Herbs might help with hair loss, but more research is needed to confirm their safety and effectiveness.
research 5α-reductase inhibitors
5α-reductase inhibitors help treat disorders caused by DHT and have potential for future therapies.
research Possible role of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors in non-invasive bladder urothelial neoplasm: multicentre study
5-alpha reductase inhibitors may reduce bladder cancer recurrence and improve survival.
research Safety of oral JAK inhibitors in treating alopecia areata: a systematic review and network meta-analysis
Oral JAK inhibitors are safe for alopecia areata, but baricitinib may cause more acne and infections.
research The Rho guanosine nucleotide exchange factors Vav2 and Vav3 modulate epidermal stem cell function
Vav2 and Vav3 proteins help control skin stem cell numbers and activity in both healthy and cancerous cells.
research Three-Dimensional Proteome-Wide Scale Screening for the 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride: Identification of a Novel Off-Target
Finasteride may affect PNMT, causing side effects.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Do Not Prevent the Development and Progression of Urothelial Cancer: In Vitro Evidence
5α-reductase inhibitors don't stop bladder cancer from developing or getting worse.
research Hair growth effects of Laminaria japonica extract and growth factor mixture on a C57BL/6 mouse model
Laminaria japonica extract with IGF-1 improved mouse hair growth and could be a potential alopecia treatment.
research Leydig Cell Hyperplasia and Adenomas in Mice Treated with Finasteride, a 5α-Reductase Inhibitor: A Possible Mechanism
Finasteride causes abnormal growth in male mice cells at high doses.
research Hair Growth is Promoted in Mouse Dorsal Skin by a Mixture of Platycladus orientalis (L.) Franco Leaf Extract and Alpha-Terpineol by Increasing Growth Factors and wnt3/β-Catenin
A mix of Platycladus orientalis leaf extract and alpha-terpineol helps mice grow hair by increasing growth factors and cell growth.
research Endocrine disruptors as risk factors for idiopathic premature thelarche in girls: A case-control study
Exposure to certain chemicals in food and containers may increase the risk of early breast development in young girls.
research Analysis of Data From Breast Diseases Treated With 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Medicines for enlarged prostate may raise the risk of breast growth and tenderness but not breast cancer.
