research Usefulness of the vasodilator minoxidil in resistant hypertension
Minoxidil effectively lowers blood pressure in resistant cases, but needs beta-blocker and diuretic support.
research Electrophysiological mechanisms of minoxidil sulfate-induced vasodilation of rabbit portal vein.
The study explains how minoxidil sulfate causes vasodilation in rabbits by opening potassium channels and inhibiting calcium channels.
research Treatment of Steroid-Resistant Beard-Restricted Alopecia Areata with Baricitinib
Baricitinib helped treat a man's beard hair loss when steroids didn't work.
research Reporting on Adverse Clinical Events
Certain medications can reduce mortality risk in COPD patients, but others can increase risks of cardiovascular issues, postoperative delirium, and other adverse effects.
research 5α-Reductase inhibitors, antiviral and anti-tumor activities of some steroidal cyanopyridinone derivatives
Some newly made compounds are promising for treating enlarged prostate, hair loss, viruses, and prostate cancer, and might be better than current drugs.
research The effect of minocycline on the metabolism of androgens by human oral periosteal fibroblasts and its inhibition by finasteride
Minocycline may cause hair loss by increasing DHT levels, but finasteride can help counteract this effect.
research PERICARDIAL EFFUSIONS ASSOCIATED WITH MINOXIDIL
research 5α-Reductase Type 2 Regulates Glucocorticoid Action and Metabolic Phenotype in Human Hepatocytes
Manipulating 5α-reductase type 2 can affect liver fat production and glucocorticoid effects.
research Minoxidil may suppress androgen receptor-related functions
Minoxidil can reduce functions related to androgen receptors.
research Patent Evaluation: Δ-4,6-Steroids as Potent 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New steroids were patented as effective for treating acne, hair loss, and other conditions related to hormones.
research Influence of the alkylsulfonylamino substituent located at the 6-position of 2,2-dimethylchromans structurally related to cromakalim: From potassium channel openers to calcium entry blockers?
New compounds similar to cromakalim were less effective at inhibiting insulin release but improved in solubility and one acted as a calcium entry blocker, not a potassium channel opener.
research Diuretics
Diuretics help the body get rid of excess salt and water by acting on the kidneys in different ways.
research Effect of MK-386, a novel inhibitor of type 1 5 alpha-reductase, alone and in combination with finasteride, on serum dihydrotestosterone concentrations in men
research Steroid sulfatase inhibitors
Steroid sulfatase inhibitors could potentially treat hormone-related disorders like certain cancers, hair loss, acne, and improve cognitive dysfunction.
research Comparison of the effects of the K+-channel openers cromakalim and minoxidil sulphate on vascular smooth muscle
Cromakalim relaxes various blood vessels, while minoxidil sulphate is more selective; they likely act on different potassium channels.
research 13777 The off-label use of spironolactone in female pattern hair loss
GSK-36 downregulation with UTMD improves plaque stability in atherosclerosis treatment.
research Activity of steroid 4 and derivatives 4a–4f as inhibitors of the enzyme 5α-reductase 1
Compounds 4, 4b, and 4c effectively inhibit an enzyme linked to testosterone conversion without significant toxicity.
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 Intracellular Calcium Mobilization in Response to Ion Channel Regulators via a Calcium-Induced Calcium Release Mechanism
Certain drugs increase calcium levels in cancer cells by triggering internal calcium release.
research MINOXIDIL INDUCED PLEURO-PERICARDIAL EFFUSION IN END-STAGE RENAL DISEASE
research Combined Low Dose Oral Minoxidil and Immunomodulator Efficacy and Safety in Alopecia Areata: A Systematic Review
Combining low-dose oral minoxidil with immunomodulators shows promise for treating alopecia areata but needs more research.
research Endocrine effects of long-term calcineurin inhibitor use in solid organ transplant recipients
Long-term use of calcineurin inhibitors in transplant patients can cause hormone issues that can be managed with proper care.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New steroidal compounds could be effective for treating conditions related to 5α-reductase enzyme activity.
research Side effects of low-dose oral minoxidil for treating alopecia
Low-dose oral minoxidil can be effective for hair loss but should be avoided in people with certain heart conditions and severe liver problems.
research Blood Pressure Monitoring for Minoxidil Therapy in Alopecia Patients
research The use of Minoxidil in the Treatment of Severe Essential Hypertension: A Report on 100 Patients
Minoxidil effectively lowers severe high blood pressure but may cause side effects like increased hair growth.
research STRESS AND AGING*
Anabolic steroids may help prevent aging effects by reducing toxicity, not by their usual functions.
research Bicalutamide improves minoxidil-induced hypertrichosis in female pattern hair loss: A retrospective review of 35 patients
Bicalutamide may reduce unwanted hair growth caused by minoxidil in women with hair loss.
research Severe Hypertension in Children With Renal Disease: Treatment With Minoxidil
Minoxidil lowers blood pressure in kids with kidney issues, but use carefully due to side effects.
