The 5-alpha reductase activity in the urogenital sinus converts testosterone to the more potent androgen, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which stimulates development of the prostate and coagulating glands. From: Boorman's Pathology of the Rat (Second Edition), 2018 ...
It is being investigated in clinical trials for the treatment of advanced solid tumors, and its clinical development is focused on combinations with inhibitors of the programmed cell death protein PD-1, a protein on the surface of cells that downregulates the immune system. In order to reduce ...
eteplirsen and nusinersen. Occupancy-only ASOs can also activate endogenous cellular surveillance programs that remove abnormal mRNAs. The targets can be degraded via nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) when ASOs act on pre-mRNAs to create mRNAs with premature termination...

Effect of anti-androgen and 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor on hormone-induced sexual behavior during pregnancy in the rat. S. (1983). Effects of an anti-androgen and 5 alpha- reductase inhibitors on estrus duration in the cycling female rat. Physiol. Behav. 30, 519 -524.Erskine, M. S., ...
this overview provides a basis and rationale for developing standardized antioxidant methods for the food, nutraceuticals, and dietary supplement industries. In addition, the most important advantages and shortcomings of each method were detected and highlighted. The chemical principles of these methods are...
At the doses of methotrexate required for efficacy in cancer, it acts as a competitive inhibitor of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), hence it will reduce downstream intermediates of the folate pathway, and ultimately inhibit nucleotide synthesis, resulting in impaired DNA replication and repair.65,66...
have provided a substantial overview of the actions of PGF2α in different tissue cells and species [109]. Here, we want to focus on the function of PGF2α signaling in platelets. It is noteworthy that, in the cardiovascular system, the prostanoid is mainly generated by fibroblasts in the ...
3. Impact of ageing on innate immunity and its restoration Innate immunity is a key element of the immune response including several cellular components such as macrophages, NK cells, and neutrophils, which provide rapid first-line defence against pathogens. The function of these cells declines with...
