Pattern hair lossPattern hair loss (also known as androgenetic alopecia (AGA)) is a hair loss condition that primarily affects the top and front of the scalp. In male-pattern hair loss (MPHL), the hair loss typically presents itself as either a receding front hairline, loss of hair on the crown (vertex) of the scalp, or a combination of both. Female-pattern hair loss (FPHL) typically presents as a diffuse thinning of the hair across the entire scalp.
ApalutamideL'apalutamide est une molécule de la classe des antiandrogènes non stéroïdiens, en cours de test dans le traitement du cancer de la prostate. Il se fixe de manière compétitive sur le récepteur des androgènes, inhibant son activité. Dans le cancer de la prostate évolutif malgré la castration, il retarde l'apparition de métastases ainsi que la progression des symptômes.
Steroidogenesis inhibitorA steroidogenesis inhibitor, also known as a steroid biosynthesis inhibitor, is a type of drug which inhibits one or more of the enzymes that are involved in the process of steroidogenesis, the biosynthesis of endogenous steroids and steroid hormones. They may inhibit the production of cholesterol and other sterols, sex steroids such as androgens, estrogens, and progestogens, corticosteroids such as glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids, and neurosteroids.
