The Role of 5-Alpha Reductase 3 In Steroid Metabolism
… driven by androgen mediated signaling. The 5-alpha reductase family of enzymes plays an essential role in the conversion of testosterone to the more potent androgen, 5-alpha dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which is capable of binding the androgen receptor to activate gene targets and downstream …

Regulation of Expression of 5 Alpha-Reductase Type 1 in Mouse Leydig Cells
… in the testis of most species. The enzyme 5a-reductase converts circulating testosterone to dihydrotestosterone in target tissues, a process that is necessary for development of the male phenotype in human beings. However, in some animals, androstanediol, a 5a-reduced androgen, is the primary …

Combination of Dietary Tomato and Broccoli Powders Are Effective Growth Inhibitors of Dunning R3327-H Prostate Adenocarcinomas
… significantly decreased expression of 5-alpha-reductase-II, Bcl-2, and IL-6 in tumors. IL-6 was reduced in high lycopene and broccoli, P=0.05, and TNF-alpha was lower with low lycopene, P=0.05. Overall, the combination of tomato and broccoli powders was more effective at slowing tumor …

Ruolo dei neurosteroidi nella modulazione dopaminergica
… we have characterized that inhibition of 5 alpha- reductase (5AR), the key enzyme for androgen metabolism and neurosteroid synthesis, elicts antidopaminergic effects. The 5AR inhibitor, finasteride (FIN), is currently approved for the therapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia and androgenic …
