450-480 / 1000+ resultsresearch Androgen receptor-mediated gene activation in prostate cancer cells
Androgen receptors help prostate cancer cells grow and resist drugs.
research 5α-reductase isoenzymes mediate stress-exacerbated Tourette-like responses in animal models
Targeting 5α-reductase type 1 may help manage Tourette-like symptoms.
research Synthesis and Structure–Activity Relationships of the First Ferrocenyl-Aryl-Hydantoin Derivatives of the Nonsteroidal Antiandrogen Nilutamide
Scientists made the first metal-based compounds from a nonsteroidal antiandrogen drug, which showed potential in fighting both hormone-dependent and independent prostate cancer cells.
research 5α‐Reductase Inhibitors
5-Alpha reductase inhibitors help treat enlarged prostate but may cause sexual side effects.
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 Isoallopregnanolone reduces tic‐like behaviours in the D1 CT ‐7 mouse model of Tourette syndrome
Isoallopregnanolone may be a safe and effective treatment for reducing tics in a mouse model of Tourette syndrome.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Phase-specific differential regulation of mechanical allodynia in a murine model of neuropathic pain by progesterone
Progesterone initially worsens but later reduces neuropathic pain in mice, through different mechanisms.
research Transcriptome profiling of whisker follicles in methamphetamine self-administered rats
Methamphetamine affects gene expression in rat whisker follicles, with key genes linked to addiction.
research The Opiate Antagonist, Naltrexone, in the Treatment of Trichotillomania
Naltrexone did not significantly reduce hair pulling but improved cognitive flexibility.
research Determination of rat 5α-reductase type 1 isozyme activity and its inhibition by novel steroidal oxazolines
New steroidal compounds moderately block an enzyme related to testosterone conversion, less effectively than finasteride.
research FPRL1 Receptor Agonist Peptides Prevent Etoposide-Induced Alopecia in Neonatal Rats
Certain peptides can prevent hair loss in young rats caused by a cancer drug.
research Agouti and Agouti-related Protein: Analogies and Contrasts
Agouti and AGRP affect pigmentation and obesity, with implications for metabolic disorders.
research Towards the Development of AgoKirs: New Pharmacological Activators to Study Kir2.x Channel and Target Cardiac Disease

Botulinum toxin is effectively used to treat various painful conditions and its therapeutic uses are growing.
research Rational Design of a Topical Androgen Receptor Antagonist for the Suppression of Sebum Production with Properties Suitable for Follicular Delivery
A new compound was created in 2010 that can control oil production when applied to the skin, and its effects are completely reversible after two weeks.
research Synthesis, Characterization and Evaluation of 5α, 6β-Dihalo Androsterone Derivatives as 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
Compound 7b is a promising candidate for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer.
research α1-AR agonist induced piloerection protects against the development of traction alopecia
Using a certain drug on the skin can help prevent hair loss caused by pulling on the hair.
research Inhibitory amino acid transmitters associated with axons in presynaptic apposition to cutaneous primary afferent axons in the cat spinal cord
Presynaptic inhibition of certain nerve fibers in cats is mainly controlled by GABA and glycine.
research Atroposelective Synthesis of Biaryl N‐Oxides via Cu‐Catalyzed De Novo Heteroaromatic N‐Oxide Ring Formation
