Agmatine may help reduce seizures linked to hormone changes in female rats.
research Effects of PNU157706, a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor, on Rat Epididymal Sperm Maturation and Fertility1
PNU157706 reduced rat sperm movement and fertility without affecting offspring health.
research Corneal Endothelial Cell Fate Is Maintained by LGR5 Through the Regulation of Hedgehog and Wnt Pathway
LGR5 helps maintain corneal cell characteristics and prevents unwanted changes by controlling specific cell signaling pathways.
research Overactivated sonic hedgehog signaling aggravates intrauterine adhesion via inhibiting autophagy in endometrial stromal cells
Overactive sonic hedgehog signaling worsens uterine scarring by reducing cell recycling.
research Small molecules and small molecule drugs in regenerative medicine
Small molecule drugs show promise for advancing regenerative medicine but still face development challenges.
research Stem cell-derived motor neurons from spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy patients
The study suggests that motor neurons created from stem cells of patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy show signs of the disease, including changes in protein levels and cell functions.
research Sonic hedgehog signaling promotes angiogenesis of endothelial progenitor cells to improve pressure ulcers healing by PI3K/AKT/eNOS signaling
Sonic hedgehog signaling helps heal pressure ulcers by improving blood vessel growth.
research Active Antialopecia Chemical Identification of Merremia peltata Leaves and Computational Study toward Androgen Receptor Using Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamic Simulation
Merremia peltata leaf extract, particularly the bufotalinin compound, shows potential for treating hair loss.
research Identification of xenobiotics interfering with 5 α -reductase (SRD5A2) activity
MK-0773 is a moderate inhibitor of the SRD5A2 enzyme.
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 In vivo evidence for an increase in 5alpha‐reductase activity in the rat central nervous system following morphine exposure
Morphine increases testosterone breakdown in the rat brain and spinal cord.
research Experimental Assessment of 3-<i>meta</i>-Pyridine-1,2,4-Oxadiazole Deoxycholic Acid Derivative as a Prototype of 5-α-Reductase Inhibitors <i>in silico</i> and <i>in vivo</i> Models
The new compound is a promising, less toxic alternative to finasteride for treating prostate issues.
research Motoneuron-Specific PTEN Deletion in Mice Induces Neuronal Hypertrophy and Also Regeneration after Facial Nerve Injury
Deleting the PTEN gene in mice causes nerve cells to grow larger and heal better after injury, but may cause overgrowth and hair loss in older mice.
research ChemInform Abstract: Discovery of a Novel Hybrid from Finasteride and Epristeride as 5α‐Reductase Inhibitor.
A new compound may effectively inhibit the enzyme linked to BPH and hair loss.
research Anti-graying effect of the extract of Pueraria thunbergiana via upregulation of cAMP/MITF-M signaling pathway
Pueraria thunbergiana extract may help prevent hair from turning gray.
research Androgenic and anti-androgenic effects of progesterone derivatives with different halogens as substituents at the C-6 position
Different halogens on progesterone derivatives can either block or mimic male hormone effects, depending on their type and amount.
research Allopregnanolone promotes proliferation and differential gene expression in human glioblastoma cells
Allopregnanolone increases growth and changes gene activity in human brain cancer cells.
research Synthesis of novel andostane-N-cyclohexyl-17-carboxamides, and their effect on the 5α-reductase isoform 2, the androgen receptor, and androgen-dependent glands
New compounds were made and tested, with compound 6 showing potential for treating prostate-related diseases.
research Inhibition of prolactin promotes secondary skin follicle activation in cashmere goats

research A new method for synthesis of finasteride
A new, safer method to make finasteride from progesterone is effective for industrial use.
research The Mossman–Pacey Paradox
Men using steroids or finasteride to look more attractive may harm their fertility and sexual function, creating a paradox where they seem fit but may be less able to reproduce.
research Non-competitive androgen receptor inhibition in vitro and in vivo
Two new compounds can block androgen receptor activity in different ways and may lead to new treatments for androgen-related diseases.
