research GYNECOMASTIA AFTER FINASTERIDE THERAPY
Finasteride may cause breast enlargement, low testosterone a risk factor.
research Preventive and Therapeutic Efficacy of Finasteride and Dutasteride in TRAMP Mice
Dutasteride works better than finasteride for preventing and treating prostate cancer.
research Selenium or No Selenium- That Is the Question in Tumor Patients: A New Controversy
There is no clear recommendation for using selenium in cancer patients; it may be beneficial to correct low selenium levels before treatment.
research Differential expression of steroid 5α-reductase isozymes and association with disease severity and angiogenic genes predict their biological role in prostate cancer
SRD5A1 is crucial in advanced prostate cancer, and blocking both SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 is more effective than targeting SRD5A2 alone.
research Diseases of the Canine Prostate Gland
The main prostate diseases in dogs are benign growth, infections, and cancer, with various treatments ranging from drugs to surgery, but cancer treatments have limited success.
research Prostate cancer and androgenic alopecia: The role of finasteride as a dual agent
Finasteride treats hair loss and reduces prostate cancer risk.
research ERG induces androgen receptor-mediated regulation of SOX9 in prostate cancer
ERG increases SOX9, promoting prostate cancer growth and invasion.
research Sex differences in COVID-19: the role of androgens in disease severity and progression
Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.
research The Effects of Transdermal Dihydrotestosterone in the Aging Male: A Prospective, Randomized, Double Blind Study
Dihydrotestosterone gel improved well-being and sexual function in older men without negatively affecting prostate health.
research Prostate Cancer Early Detection, Version 2.2015
The guidelines aim to find treatable prostate cancer early while avoiding unnecessary tests and treatments.
research The secret identities of TMPRSS2: Fertility factor, virus trafficker, inflammation moderator, prostate protector and tumor suppressor
TMPRSS2 helps viruses enter cells and protects the prostate from inflammation-related cancer.
research Cancer risk by the subtype of alopecia
People with certain types of alopecia have a slightly higher risk of cancer, especially thyroid, bladder, and prostate cancers.
research Potential adverse effects of long-term testosterone therapy
Long-term testosterone therapy can cause hormone suppression, affect prostate and heart health, and alter physical characteristics, but does not increase prostate cancer risk and needs more research for full risk assessment.
research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases
The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.
research Finasteride
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and may help with baldness, but effects on sexual function and male fetuses are unclear.
research Liarozole—a novel treatment approach for advanced prostate cancer: results of a large randomized trial versus cyproterone acetate
Liarozole may be more effective than cyproterone acetate for treating advanced prostate cancer, with better PSA response and survival rates, while maintaining quality of life.
research Selective non-steroidal inhibitors of 5α-reductase type 1
Selective non-steroidal inhibitors of 5α-reductase type 1 can help treat DHT-related disorders.
research An Approach to the Patient with Hirsutism
The document concludes with guidance for doctors on diagnosing and treating hirsutism effectively and safely.
research Expression and function of nuclear receptor co-activator 4: evidence of a potential role independent of co-activator activity
NcoA4 may have roles beyond helping control gene activity, possibly affecting cell behavior and stability.
research Finasteride: The First 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and baldness, but may cause limited urinary improvement and sex-related side effects.
research Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (17β -HSD3, 17β-HSD5, and 3α-HSD3) Inhibitors:Extragonadal Regulation of Intracellular Sex Steroid Hormone Levels
Certain inhibitors can potentially treat prostate cancer and other hormone-dependent conditions by controlling sex hormone levels in cells.
research Role of 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors in the management of prostate cancer
5 alpha-reductase inhibitors like finasteride may lower prostate cancer risk and improve cancer screening.
research Androgen deprivation therapy may constitute a more effective COVID-19 prophylactic than therapeutic strategy
Androgen deprivation therapy might be better for preventing COVID-19 than treating it.
research Alcohol and Prostate Cancer: Time to Draw Conclusions
Drinking a lot of alcohol increases the risk of prostate cancer and can worsen the condition.
research Male pattern baldness and risk of colorectal neoplasia
Men with certain types of baldness at age 45 may have a higher risk of colon cancer and colorectal adenoma.
research Administration of Caesalpinia bonduc Seed Extracts Ameliorates Testosterone-Induced Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) in Male Wistar Rats
