research Synthesis and Pharmacological Evaluation of New 16-Methyl Pregnane Derivatives.
New pregnane derivatives were more effective than finasteride at inhibiting a key enzyme for male pattern baldness.
research Progesterone-induced spike-wave discharges are inhibited by finasteride
Finasteride blocks progesterone's effect on brain activity linked to epilepsy.
research 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 inhibition attenuates the adverse effects of glucocorticoids on dermal papilla cells
Blocking 11β-HSD1 reduces stress hormone damage in hair growth cells.
research Análisis de las Interacciones Químicas-Cuánticas in Silico de la Finasterida y los Neurotransmisores y su Papel en la Psicopatología
Finasteride can help with hair loss and prostate issues but may negatively affect mood and the nervous system.
research Estranys matins de febrer: Pauline Fondevila
Trienones are more effective at inhibiting the enzyme linked to hair loss than dienones.
research TTNPB Promotes Human Pluripotent Stem Cell‐to‐Neural Stem Cell Transition via Modulation of Chromatin Accessibility and the S‐(5′‐adenosyl)‐L‐homocysteine/Choline Metabolic Network
TTNPB helps turn stem cells into neural stem cells, improving depression-like behaviors in rats.
research Hair growth inhibition by psychoemotional stress: a mouse model for neural mechanisms in hair growth control
Stress can stop hair growth in mice, and treatments can reverse this effect.
research Frontiers in the (Neuro-)endocrine Controls of Hair Growth
Hair growth and health are influenced by stress and hormones.
research Problems in evaluating chronic toxicity of contraceptive steroids in dogs
High doses of some contraceptive steroids cause health issues in dogs, but their relevance to humans is unclear.
research Allopregnanolone (AP) induces opioid inhibition of hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis responses to interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in pregnancy
Allopregnanolone and opioids together reduce stress hormone responses during pregnancy.
research Biological activity of novel progesterone derivatives having a bulky ester side chains at C-3
The more lipophilic the progesterone derivative, the better it binds to androgen receptors and has antiandrogenic effects.
research Weak correlations between serum and cerebrospinal fluid levels of estradiol, progesterone and testosterone in males
Blood hormone levels don't accurately show brain hormone levels in males.
research Microglia: sculptors of the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)-like brain?
Microglia, the brain's immune cells, may contribute to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) by altering the female brain's structure and function, with kisspeptin neurons and GABA neurotransmitters also playing a role.
research 944 Non-coding double stranded RNA induces retinoic acid synthesis and retinoid signaling to control regeneration
Non-coding RNA boosts retinoic acid production and signaling, aiding regeneration.
research Regulation of the metabolic phenotype of human hepatocytes by glucocorticoids and androgens
Glucocorticoids reduce fat production in liver cells, while androgens increase it in females; manipulating certain enzymes can influence these effects.
research The effects of methylated flavonoids on depression-like activity and pro-inflammatory cytokine thresholds in mice induced by repeated finasteride administration
Methylated flavonoids may effectively reduce depression and inflammation caused by finasteride.
research Neuropsychiatric Reactions to Finasteride: Nocebo or True Effect?
research Therapeutic Potential of Brassinosteroids in Biomedical and Clinical Research
Brassinosteroids may be useful in treating cancer, infections, and other diseases.
research TOPICAL STEROIDS
Use mild topical steroids to avoid side effects, especially in children.
research Neurogenic skin inflammation in stress‐triggered inhibition of hair growth in mice is promoted via nerve growth factor‐dependent pathways
Stress increases nerve growth factor, causing hair loss in mice.
research Investigating the synergic effects of valproic acid and crocin on BDNF and GDNF expression in epidermal neural crest stem cells
Valproic acid and crocin together boost cell growth and may help treat nerve injuries.
research Novel anticonvulsive effects of progesterone in a mouse model of hippocampal electrical kindling
Progesterone can reduce seizures without relying on the GABAA receptor pathway.
research Decision letter for "Repeated finasteride administration promotes synaptic plasticity and produces antidepressant‐ and anxiolytic‐like effects in female rats"
research Decision letter for "Repeated finasteride administration promotes synaptic plasticity and produces antidepressant‐ and anxiolytic‐like effects in female rats"
research Synthesis and Pharmacological Evaluation of New Progesterone Esters as 5.ALPHA.-Reductase Inhibitors
Smaller substituents at C-17 enhance the inhibitory activity of progesterone derivatives on 5alpha-reductase.
research Human androgenic steroids affect growth of dermatophytes in vitro
Androgenic steroids can slow down or stop the growth of certain skin fungi.
research Why steroids may not always work in alopecia areata: elevated unoccupied glucocorticoid receptors and decreased levels of thioredoxin
Steroids may not work well for alopecia areata because of high unoccupied receptors and low thioredoxin levels.
research Investigation of the mechanisms of progesterone protection following oxygen–glucose deprivation in organotypic hippocampal slice cultures
Progesterone protects brain cells by converting to allopregnanolone and involving GABAA receptors.
research 5α-reductase isoenzymes mediate stress-exacerbated Tourette-like responses in animal models
Targeting 5α-reductase type 1 may help manage Tourette-like symptoms.
