research Effect of Pumpkin Seed Oil on Hair Growth in Men with Androgenetic Alopecia: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial
Pumpkin seed oil helps hair growth in men with hair loss.
research Efficacy of an Oral Ageratum Conyzoides Formulation on Increasing Hair Growth and Decreasing Hair Loss in Males and Females: A Randomised Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Study
Ageratum Conyzoides, when taken orally, can effectively reduce hair loss and improve hair growth.
research Androgenetic alopecia: a review
Male pattern baldness involves genetics, hormones, and needs better treatments.
research Hair Supplements
Some supplements may help with hair loss, but there's not enough strong evidence to recommend them without doctor advice.
research Finasteride in the Treatment of Hirsutism
Finasteride reduces hair growth in women with hirsutism and works better with electrolysis.
research In vivo and in silico evaluation of the ameliorative effect of hesperidin on finasteride-induced testicular oxidative stress in Wistar rats
Hesperidin protects rat testicles from finasteride damage and improves sperm health.
research Dutasteride
Dutasteride effectively treats enlarged prostate, reduces prostate cancer risk, and promotes hair regrowth with few side effects.
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 5α-reductase inhibition and hair growth promotion of some Thai plants traditionally used for hair treatment
Some Thai plants, especially Carthamus tinctorius, could help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth without adverse effects.
research Ethanol-induced GABAA receptor alpha4 subunit plasticity involves phosphorylation and neuroactive steroids
Chronic ethanol increases certain brain receptor levels, influenced by steroids and protein changes.
research Baiting Proteins with C60
C60 fullerenes can alter protein function and may help develop new disease inhibitors.
research Finasteride inhibits melanogenesis through regulation of the adenylate cyclase in melanocytes and melanoma cells
Finasteride reduces melanin production, possibly treating hyperpigmentation and melanoma, but needs more safety research.
research Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeting 5-α-Reductase Inhibitors to the Hair Follicle
Nanostructured delivery systems could potentially improve hair loss treatment by targeting drugs to hair follicles, reducing side effects and dosage, but the best size, charge, and materials for these systems need further investigation.
research The Benefits of Dual Inhibition of 5α Reductase
Dutasteride reduces DHT and improves BPH symptoms more effectively than finasteride.
research Potential targets in the discovery of new hair growth promoters for androgenic alopecia
The document concludes that targeting 5α-reductase, the androgen receptor, and hair growth genes, along with using compounds with anti-androgenic properties, could lead to more effective hair loss treatments.
research The circulating dihydrotestosterone/testosterone ratio is increased by gut microbial 5α-reductase activity in females
Women have a higher DHT/testosterone ratio than men, possibly due to gut bacteria activity.
research Trapa bispinosa Roxb. Pericarp Extract Exerts 5α-Reductase Inhibitory Activity in Castrated Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Model Mice
Trapa bispinosa Roxb. extract may help reduce prostate size and cell growth in BPH.
research Antidepressant-like effect of fluoxetine may depend on translocator protein activity and pretest session duration in forced swimming test in mice
Fluoxetine's effectiveness as an antidepressant in mice depends on a specific protein activity and a 5-minute pretest.
research Terminalia chebula retz. Fruit Extract Promotes Murine Hair Growth by Suppressing 5α-Reductase and Accelerating the Degradation of Dihydrotestosterone
Terminalia chebula fruit extract helps hair growth by reducing DHT and boosting hair cell activity.
research Spironolactone versus placebo or in combination with steroids for hirsutism and/or acne
Spironolactone is better than placebo for reducing excessive hair growth in women, but its effectiveness for acne is unclear due to small study sizes.
research 5α-Reductase isozymes and aromatase mRNA levels in plucked hair from young women with female pattern hair loss
Higher enzyme levels found in women with hair loss, suggesting hormone imbalance.
research DHT and E2 synthesis-related proteins and receptors expression in male yak skin during different hair follicle stages
Male yak hair growth is influenced by DHT synthesis, which is promoted by 5α-red1 and AR during growth phases, while E2 may inhibit growth through ERα.
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 The emerging role of Janus kinase inhibitors in the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases
Janus kinase inhibitors are promising drugs for treating autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.
research In silico prediction of prostaglandin D2 synthase inhibitors from herbal constituents for the treatment of hair loss
Herbal compounds like ricinoleic acid, quercetin-3-O-rutinoside, and hinokiflavone may be safe and effective for treating hair loss.
research The gut‐microbiota‐brain axis: Focus on gut steroids
Gut bacteria affect steroid levels, influencing health conditions and potential treatments.
research Upregulation of mir-1199-5p is associated with reduced type 2 5-α reductase expression in benign prostatic hyperplasia
Higher levels of miR-1199-5p may reduce the effectiveness of certain prostate treatments.
research Genetics and Pathophysiology of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
The document concludes that patient outcomes for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia are often not ideal because of poor management and a need for better diagnosis and treatment methods.
research Steroid Sulfatase Deficiency and Androgen Activation Before and After Puberty
In STSD patients, the body compensates for low androgen levels by increasing another enzyme's activity.
