research Human type 3 5α-reductase is expressed in peripheral tissues at higher levels than types 1 and 2 and its activity is potently inhibited by finasteride and dutasteride
Type 3 5α-reductase is more common and finasteride and dutasteride strongly inhibit it.
research Hair-Based Assessment of Sex Steroid Hormones in Patients with Anorexia Nervosa
Hair analysis shows low progesterone in anorexia patients, unchanged by short-term weight gain.

research Androgen‐induced neurite outgrowth is mediated by neuritin in motor neurones
Androgens help motor neurons grow by increasing neuritin.
research Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome associated with steroid sulfatase deficiency—x-linked recessive ichthyosis: a case report and review of literature
A boy with a rare skin condition and kidney disease improved with cyclosporine after steroids failed, suggesting a new treatment approach.
research The effect of the antiandrogen IIα-hydroxyprogesterone on sebum production and cholesterol concentration of sebum
The antiandrogen 11α-hydroxyprogesterone effectively reduces skin oil and cholesterol when applied to the skin.
research Finasteride reduces the preventive effect of uroselective α1A-blockers against cancellous bone disorders induced by androgen deficiency in rats
Finasteride weakens the bone-protective effects of certain blockers in low androgen conditions.
research Charting the Bromodomain BRD4: Towards the Identification of Novel Inhibitors with Molecular Similarity and Receptor Mapping
Researchers identified promising inhibitors for the BRD4 protein, including finasteride and amentoflavone.
research The Mechanisms of Anabolic Steroids, Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators and Myostatin Inhibitors
Anabolic steroids boost muscle growth, SARMs increase muscle mass and bone density without side effects, and myostatin inhibitors block a protein that stops muscle growth, but each has potential risks.
research An estrogen receptor pathwayregulates thetelogen-anagen hair follicle transition andinfluences epidermal cell proliferation (epidermis/estrogen/keratinocyte/differentiation/mesenchymal
The estrogen receptor pathway controls hair growth cycles and affects skin cell growth.
research Frontiers in the (Neuro-)endocrine Controls of Hair Growth
Hair growth and health are influenced by stress and hormones.
research Exploring the mechanism of stigmasterol against androgenetic alopecia using geometry optimization, network pharmacology, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics studies
Stigmasterol may help treat hair loss, but more research is needed.
research Steady-state pharmacokinetics of oral testosterone undecanoate with concomitant inhibition of 5α-reductase by finasteride
Finasteride doesn't affect oral testosterone undecanoate, and high DHT levels may cause acne, prostate issues, and hair loss.
research Opposite effects of dihydrotestosterone and estradiol on apoptosis in the anterior pituitary gland from male rats
research Localization of sex steroid receptors in human skin.
Sex steroid receptors are found in specific skin cells, affecting skin and hair functions.
research Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamics Analysis of Phytochemical Compounds from Nutmeg Fruit (Myristica fragrans Houtt.) on Androgen Receptor (4K7A) as Anti-Alopecia Therapy
Geranylgeraniol from nutmeg may effectively treat hair loss, similar to finasteride and better than minoxidil.
research Glucocorticoid Receptor Mutants Demonstrate Increased Motility Inside the Nucleus of Living Cells: Time of Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP) Is an Integrated Measure of Receptor Function
Certain defective glucocorticoid receptor mutants move faster inside cell nuclei and work less effectively.
research Finasteride promotes worsening of the cardiac deleterious effects of nandrolone decanoate and protects against genotoxic and cytotoxic damage
Finasteride worsens heart damage but reduces cell toxicity caused by nandrolone decanoate.
