research Synthesis and structure–activity investigation of iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins for development as androgen receptor radioligands
Scientists created iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins that could potentially be used for imaging prostate cancer. Some versions with specific side-chains showed high potential for this use.
research 24-Hydroxycholesterol suppresses steroid 5α-reductase-catalyzed conversion in human glioblastoma cell lines: A novel link between brain cholesterol homeostasis and androgen metabolism
24-Hydroxycholesterol reduces DHT formation in brain cancer cells, linking cholesterol and hormone metabolism.
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 Brain allopregnanolone induces marked scratching behaviour in diet-induced atopic dermatitis mouse model
A brain-produced steroid causes increased scratching in mice with a skin condition similar to eczema.
research 5α-Reduced glucocorticoids: a story of natural selection
Natural 5α-reduced glucocorticoids might be anti-inflammatory with fewer side effects than current options.
research Reduced levels of 5-α reductase 2 in adult prostate tissue and implications for BPH therapy
Some men's prostate tissues have low enzyme levels due to genetic changes, possibly affecting treatment for prostate enlargement.
research Neuroactive gonadal drugs for neuroprotection in male and female models of Parkinson's disease
Some hormone-related drugs may protect brain cells in Parkinson's disease differently in men and women.
research Cutaneous Metabolism of Vitamin B-6
An enzyme other than TNAP might be responsible for vitamin B-6 metabolism in the skin.
