research Finasteride in androgenetic alopecia in men
Finasteride is effective in stopping hair loss and promoting regrowth in most men with mild side effects.
research Establishing and Verifying a Robust Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry Method to Simultaneously Measure Seven Androgens Present in Plasma Samples
The method accurately measures seven androgens in plasma and shows different hormone levels in females with acne and obesity.
research Adipose Mesenchymal Stromal Cell-Derived Exosomes Carrying MiR-122-5p Antagonize the Inhibitory Effect of Dihydrotestosterone on Hair Follicles by Targeting the TGF-β1/SMAD3 Signaling Pathway
ADSC-Exos with miR-122-5p can help treat hair loss by promoting hair growth.
research Measurement of steroid hormones by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry with small amounts of hair
A new method accurately measures steroid hormones in a few hair strands and could help study chronic stress and hair loss.
research Assessing tolerability and physiological responses to 17α-estradiol administration in male rhesus macaques
research Preventable effect of L-threonate, an ascorbate metabolite, on androgen-driven balding via repression of dihydrotestosteroneinduced dickkopf-1 expression in human hair dermal papilla cells
L-threonate may help prevent balding by blocking a key hair loss factor.
research Modelling androgen synthesis and action during human sexual differentiation
Male sexual differentiation is regulated independently, while female differentiation occurs in an androgenic environment, affecting conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Androgen receptor activation integrates complex transcriptional effects in osteoblasts, involving the growth factors TGF-β and IGF-I, and transcription factor C/EBPδ
DHT affects bone growth by altering gene activity in osteoblasts, potentially complicating steroid use.
research Clobetasol/minoxidil
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors, Chemical and Clinical Models
Researchers developed a model to predict how well certain compounds can block an enzyme related to hair loss and prostate issues, suggesting a 50 mg dose of finasteride might be effective based on lab and body data.
research Hair loss in athletic testosterone use in males: a narrative review
Testosterone use for muscle growth can cause hair loss in males.
research Novel type 1 5a-reductase Inhibitors with Antiproliferative Potential on LNCaP cells

research Androgen Biosynthesis and Gene Defects
Gene mutations can cause problems in male genital development.
research Correction to “Multistage Transdermal Nitric Oxide Delivery System for the Efficient Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia”
research Cyproterone acetate for hirsutism
Cyproterone acetate with estradiol may subjectively improve excessive hair growth in women, but it's not clinically better than other treatments.
research Four-amino acid segment in steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 confers sensitivity to finasteride, a competitive inhibitor.
Four-amino acid part makes enzyme sensitive to finasteride.
research Co-administration of 5α-reductase Inhibitors Worsens the Adverse Metabolic Effects of Prescribed Glucocorticoids
Taking 5α-reductase inhibitors with prednisolone can worsen its negative effects on metabolism.
research Effect of neurosteroid dehydroepiandrosterone on the higher nervous activity of old non-human primates
DHEA improved brain function and behavior in old monkeys and had additional health benefits.
research 5α-reductase inhibitors
5α-reductase inhibitors help treat disorders caused by DHT and have potential for future therapies.
research Topical minoxidil therapy for androgenetic alopecia.
research The influence of long-term treatment with cyproterone acetate or a cyproterone acetate-ethinyl oestradiol combination on androgen levels in blood of hirsute women
Both treatments reduced androgen levels and hair growth in women with hirsutism.
research 1424 METHYLATION AND DECREASED EXPRESSION OF 5-ALPHA REDUCTASE 2 IN HUMAN PROSATE SAMPLES: IMPLICATIONS FOR RESISTANCE TO THERAPY FOR BPH
Methylation of the 5-AR2 gene may cause resistance to Finasteride in BPH patients.
research Synthesis of a 4-azasteroid hormones compound
Finasteride was successfully synthesized from Pregnadienolone acetate.
research Role of Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in the Pathophysiology and Clinical Manifestations of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
DHEA may play a complex role in PCOS, affecting hormones, metabolism, and symptoms.
