This study found that overexpressing the gene Thymosin β4 (Tβ4) can promote the growth and development of secondary hair follicle dermal papilla cells in cashmere goats, suggesting its potential as a target for increasing cashmere production.

This study found that using a new method to apply platelet-rich plasma during surgery improved early outcomes for patients with hip avascular necrosis, including those with a history of Covid-19.

This study assessed three lactic acid bacteria-fermented proteins and found that F-WPI and F-SPI could normalize osteoclastogenesis markers in vitro, while F-SPI enhanced osteoblastogenesis markers, suggesting potential as dietary supplements for osteoporosis prevention, though further research into mechanisms is needed.

This review discusses medications used in dermatology, detailing their side effects and interactions, and reports no new clinical results.

This review examines platelet-rich plasma's applications in aesthetic surgery and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight its growing use and potential as a therapeutic modality.

In this case report, treatment with antibiotics, finasteride, and prostate omentalization restored fertility in a 6-year-old German Shepherd with prostatitis and astenoteratozoospermia, avoiding surgical castration.

This review explores androgen metabolism in the skin, highlighting enzyme localization and potential implications for treating androgen-dependent skin conditions, but it reports no new clinical results.

This letter discusses the potential connection between androgenetic alopecia and COVID-19, suggesting a possible new therapy, but it reports no new results.

This article reviews recent advances in the synthesis of oxasteroids and reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses hormonal manipulation for conditions like prostatic disorders and skin issues and highlights promising treatments like casodex and finasteride, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study identified the expression of 5αR1 and 5αR3 enzymes in canine skin, which may advance understanding and treatment of alopecia X.

The researchers reported that finasteride was effective in controlling hormone-related dysfunction in an adult dog diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia, although the condition regressed after the medication was withdrawn.

This review provides an update on sex hormone-associated dermatoses in dogs, detailing known conditions like feminization syndrome and exploring less understood issues such as alopecia X, without presenting new clinical findings.

This review discusses the controversial non-inflammatory alopecia known as alopecia X, highlighting its unknown etiology and the variable effectiveness of various proposed treatments, but reports no new results.

This study demonstrated that testosterone treatment increases muscle strength and alters body composition in transmen, and the addition of dutasteride does not impair these anabolic effects.

This review discusses the role of androgens in the progression of cardiovascular disease and explores novel therapeutic targets without reporting new clinical results.

The authors updated recommendations on diagnosing and treating women's sexual dysfunctions, emphasizing a comprehensive assessment approach, while noting the need for further multidisciplinary research.

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.

In this study, patients informed about finasteride's potential sexual side effects reported a significantly higher occurrence of these side effects, suggesting a nocebo effect.

This review discusses persistent adverse effects of 5α‐reductase inhibitors, like diminished libido and erectile dysfunction, in some patients and highlights the need for patient discussions before therapy, especially for androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, administering 5alpha-reductase inhibitors reduced dihydrotestosterone levels and was associated with mild, reversible decreases in semen parameters in healthy men.

This study found that 94% of healthy men reported low libido and 92% reported erectile dysfunction as persistent sexual side effects after using finasteride for male pattern hair loss, with these effects lasting on average 40 months post-discontinuation.

This study found that prenatal exposure to finasteride in rats led to permanent changes in developmental endpoints like anogenital distance and nipple retention, which were predictive of further reproductive tract malformations.

In this study, 96% of men with persistent sexual side effects from finasteride reported continued dysfunction after discontinuation, suggesting these effects may endure long-term.

This study concluded that daily treatment with 1 mg finasteride did not affect spermatogenesis or semen production in young men and had small, reversible effects on prostate volume and serum PSA.

This paper reviews causes of hirsutism in women and emphasizes the importance of identifying underlying conditions for risk assessment, though it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that finasteride competitively inhibits the enzyme AKR1D1 with low micromolar affinity but does not act as a mechanism-based inactivator.

Seborrhea in Parkinson's disease may be linked to hormones, not autonomic impairment.
