The postfinasteride syndrome; an overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
As a 5-α reductase inhibitor, Finasteride has proven effective in ameliorating two conditions documented to be androgen dependent, namely male androgenic alopecia and benign prostatic hyperplasia. Therapeutic results are maintained as long as the drug is

Metallofullerenol Sc3N@C80(OH)18: A New Generation Radioprotector Protecting Human Erythrocytes Against Multiple Biochemical Damage Modes Upon Gamma Irradiation, Identifying It as a Scavenger of Short‐ and Long‐Lived Radicals

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Metallofullerenol Sc3N@C80(OH)18 demonstrates strong radioprotective properties as a scavenger of both short‐ and long‐lived radicals. The study reveals protection of human erythrocytes from γ‐radiation–induced biochemical damage via post‐irradiation removal of primary and secondary reactive oxidants, supported by pulse radiolysis kinetics.

Ethanol enhances neurosteroidogenesis in hippocampal pyramidal neurons by paradoxical NMDA receptor activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Using an antibody against 5α-reduced neurosteroids, predominantly allopregnanolone, we found that immunostaining in the CA1 region of rat hippocampal slices was confined to pyramidal neurons.

Nitrate and nitrite reductase activities of Mycobacterium avium

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mycobacteriology, 2018
Background: In spite of the fact that the standard test for nitrate reductase activity is negative for Mycobacterium avium, it can grow in a defined minimal medium with either nitrate (NO3) or nitrite (NO2) as sole nitrogen sources.

A Case of Statin-Associated Autoimmune Myopathy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A 70-year-old previously independent man developed progressive proximal leg weakness resulting in a fall at home suffering traumatic brain injury. He was prescribed a statin medication two years prior, but this was discontinued on admission to the ...

Natural Sweetener Stevioside‐Based Dissolving Microneedles Solubilize Minoxidil for the Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study addresses limitations of minoxidil (MXD) in treating androgenetic alopecia by using stevioside (STV) as a solubilizing agent and microneedle (MN) material. STV enhanced MXD's solubility and skin absorption, leading to improved drug delivery and significant hair regrowth in animal models, demonstrating strong potential for AGA treatment ...

5α-reductase activity in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2017
Background 5α-reductase activity might be important during the development of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, the changes of 5α-reductase activity in PCOS subjects and the relationship between 5α-reductase activity and body mass index (BMI ...
