flutamide and Gingival Overgrowth

flutamide has been researched along with Gingival Overgrowth in 1 studies

Flutamide: An antiandrogen with about the same potency as cyproterone in rodent and canine species.

Gingival Overgrowth: Excessive growth of the gingiva either by an increase in the size of the constituent cells (GINGIVAL HYPERTROPHY) or by an increase in their number (GINGIVAL HYPERPLASIA). (From Jablonski's Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992, p574)

"To understand the role of the androgen receptor in gingival overgrowth, the effects of flutamide on interleukin-1 beta- and nifedipine-induced gene expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF/CCN2) and collagen production in gingival fibroblasts were examined."3.76Flutamide inhibits nifedipine- and interleukin-1 beta-induced collagen overproduction in gingival fibroblasts.
