Long-term use of a certain medication can worsen erectile function in aged rats by damaging penile muscle cells.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma treatment significantly improved erectile function and restored neural structures in aged rats with erectile dysfunction, suggesting potential benefits for geriatric patients.

In this animal study, finasteride treatment altered testosterone metabolism in rat corpus cavernosum, linked to mechanisms of erectile dysfunction, but these changes were reversed after stopping the drug, suggesting post-treatment sexual side effects may relate more to central control dysfunction than peripheral issues.

This study investigated the effects of 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors on penile histomorphometry in both normotensive and hypertensive rats, reporting no significant changes between treated and untreated groups.

This study found that low androgen levels in rat penile endothelial cells were associated with a decrease in eNOS-expressing extracellular vesicles and reduced nitric oxide production.

In this study, androgen was found to increase VEGF expression, but not VEGFR-2, in rat corpus cavernous, with DHT likely playing a key role.

This study on adult male rats found that finasteride treatment led to molecular changes linked to erectile dysfunction, while withdrawal from the drug did not alter these parameters.

In this study, oral finasteride treatment for four weeks reduced the weight of the corpus cavernosum in rats but did not significantly affect erectile function.

This case report describes multiple skin tumors in an 11-year-old Doberman Pinscher with color dilution alopecia, but it remains unclear if the condition increases risk for such tumors.

This review discusses the role of 5α-reductase in prostate development and BPH, and reports no new clinical results; ongoing trials are exploring dual isozyme inhibitors for improved treatment efficacy.

Finasteride may cause sexual dysfunction by reducing epinephrine levels.

This case report describes a 41-year-old woman with lower abdominal pain who was found to have an ovarian cavernous hemangioma, highlighting the importance of correct diagnosis to prevent unnecessary radical surgery.

In a rat model, this study found that a hydrogel incorporating adipose-derived stem cells and nerve growth factor may aid in the recovery of erectile function following cavernous nerve injury.

This study reported that a new sulfur paste formulation with added plant extract and propolis effectively treated scabies in rabbits by promoting rapid tissue regeneration, hair growth, and eliminating secondary infections, offering a more affordable and less irritating alternative to commercial treatments.

This study observed that a significant number of hospitalized COVID-19 patients in Mato Grosso State, Brazil, experienced persistent symptoms like fatigue, memory problems, and hair loss 6 and 12 months after discharge, with higher prevalence among older, lower-income patients and those with pre-existing conditions.
