90-120 / 1000+ results research Pediatric Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: More Than a Positive Antinuclear Antibody
Pediatric systemic lupus erythematosus is a severe autoimmune disease in children requiring early diagnosis and comprehensive management.
research Novel potential avenues for the therapy of Tourette syndrome: Cannabinoid- and steroid-based interventions
Cannabinoid and steroid-based drugs could be new treatments for Tourette syndrome, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research 5α-Reductase inhibitors alter steroid metabolism and may contribute to insulin resistance, diabetes, metabolic syndrome and vascular disease: a medical hypothesis
Some hair loss and prostate drugs might increase the risk of diabetes and heart disease.
research Alopecia Areata: Clinical Treatment
Alopecia areata treatments should be personalized, using options like steroids, JAK inhibitors, and other therapies based on individual needs.
research The 39th Manfred Donike workshop on doping analysis
The 39th Manfred Donike Workshop discussed methods for detecting misuse of steroids, gene doping, and the complexity of identifying drug residues in urine, highlighting the ongoing efforts to improve global anti-doping work.
research Medicinal and cosmetic products used in treatment of hair loss
Some treatments for hair loss, like finasteride, biotin, and minoxidil, can be effective, but their success varies by individual case.
research Serum sickness–like reaction in children: A retrospective review
Children's Serum Sickness-Like Reaction is often linked to antibiotics, especially amoxicillin, and involves symptoms like rash, fever, and joint issues.
research Trichodynia (Scalp Dysesthesia)
Many people with hair loss experience scalp pain known as trichodynia, but the causes are unclear and treatments vary.
research Valproate-acid-induced cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis.
Valproic acid can cause a skin condition called leukocytoclastic vasculitis, which usually gets better after stopping the drug.
research Three orphans one should know: red scalp, red ear and red scrotum syndrome
The document concludes that early recognition and appropriate treatment of red scalp, red ear, and red scrotum syndromes can lead to remission.
research Early post-natal neuroactive steroid manipulation modulates ondansetron effects on initial periods of alcohol consumption in rats
Early changes in brain chemicals affect how a drug reduces alcohol intake in rats.
research Finasteride, A Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitor, Does Not Affect the Oxidative Metabolism of Antipyrine
Finasteride doesn't affect antipyrine metabolism, so interactions with cytochrome P-450 enzyme drugs are unlikely.
research Structural basis for the catalysis and inhibition of human steroid 5α‐reductase 2
The research gives new understanding on how human steroid 5α-reductases work and how drugs like finasteride inhibit them, which could help in creating new drugs.
research Crystal structure of steroid reductase SRD5A reveals conserved steroid reduction mechanism
The structure of SRD5A reveals how it reduces steroids, aiding drug design for related health conditions.
research In silico structural prediction of human steroid 5α-reductase type II
Scientists found out the structure of a human enzyme linked to prostate cancer and hair loss, which could help in designing drugs.
research Calcineurin-based immunosuppression in renal transplantation : focus on efficacy, the role of steroids, and the cardiovascular risk
Tacrolimus causes fewer acute rejections than cyclosporin A in kidney transplants but doesn't necessarily improve kidney function after one year; cardiovascular risks and side effects vary between the two drugs.
research Isotope Dilution-Based Targeted and Nontargeted Carbonyl Neurosteroid/Steroid Profiling
Researchers created a new method to measure brain steroids, finding higher levels of certain steroids and changes due to a drug.
research Autoinmune Alopecia/Alopecia Areata
New drugs, baricitinib and ritlecitinib, are effective for severe alopecia areata.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia: Iatrogenic endocrine disruption
Certain drugs and supplements may contribute to hair loss in the frontal hairline in older women.
research Saturable Binding of Finasteride to Steroid 5α-reductase as Determinant of Nonlinear Pharmacokinetics
Finasteride's effect on hair loss and prostate enlargement depends on its binding to an enzyme, with maximum impact at 0.2 mg dose.
research ABSTRACTS—SYMPOSIA
Certain drugs can block changes in brain receptors caused by alcohol withdrawal.
research Cutaneous Toxicities From Transplantation-Related Medications
Skin problems from transplant drugs are common and need careful management in organ transplant patients.
research Successful rapid subcutaneous desensitization to anakinra in a case of delayed‐type hypersensitivity reaction
A woman with a drug allergy to anakinra was successfully desensitized, allowing her to continue treatment without allergic reactions.
research Dissecting the Molecular Mechanisms Involved in Keloid Pathogenesis and Response to Therapy
Low-dose radiation and certain drugs can inhibit keloid growth, revealing potential treatment targets.
research Cutaneous toxicities of new targeted cancer therapies: must know for diagnosis, management, and patient-proxy empowerment
New targeted cancer drugs can cause skin side effects, and managing them requires patient education and timely care.
research Transplantation immunology: Solid organ and bone marrow
Transplant success has improved with better immunosuppressive drugs and donor matching.
research Pharmacokinetic parameters and mechanisms of inhibition of rat type 1 and 2 steroid 5α-reductases: determinants for different in vivo activities of GI198745 and finasteride in the rat 3 3Abbreviations: r5AR1, rat 5α-reductase 1; r5AR2, rat 5α-reductase 2; and DHT, dihydrotestosterone.
