antiandrogens/sesamum indicum

Using a simple steroid determination technique, in situ steroid absorption from a subcutaneously injected sesame oil solution in rats was pursued following the time-course changes in the steroid concentration. Based on the knowledge thus obtained, the anti-androgenic effect of a steroidal compound,

The adrenal cortex of the Syrian golden hamster is influenced by androgen hormone, for during puberty sex dimorphism of the adrenal cortex can be observed; it is prevented by perinatal castration. The following study will show, if and how other steroids influence the adrenal cortex of the normal and

The effects of estradiol benzoate (EB), dihydrotestosterone (DHT), or the antiandrogen hydroxyflutamide on CA1 pyramidal cell dendritic spine synapses were investigated in adult male rats. To elucidate the contribution of the androgen receptor to the hormone-induced increase in hippocampal CA1

The involvement of androgens in the control of ovulation has been assessed by administration of the androgen antagonist, hydroxyflutamide, to prepubertal rats treated with pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin (PMSG) to induce first estrus and ovulation. Without human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)

Flutamide (FLT) is an antiandrogen drug for the treatment of prostate cancer. It has the drawback of poor water solubility and needs enhancement of its dissolution rate in simulated gastric fluids. Hence, it is prepared as self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (SNEDDS) with an aim to enhance
