This study found that BBS7 is important for Sonic hedgehog signaling activity, which may be crucial for maintaining periodontal ligament homeostasis in occlusal hypofunction.

This study found that the bioconjugate nanoparticle HA-P5 significantly alleviated acne and reduced sebum production by inhibiting key signaling pathways without inducing unwanted protein expression that hinders acne treatment.

In a rat model of benign prostatic hyperplasia, this study found that purple corn extract may improve symptoms by inhibiting prostate enlargement, reducing androgen receptor signaling, and exerting anti-inflammatory effects.

This case report describes the first known instance of fibrosing alopecia associated with cutaneous lichen planus, suggesting fibrosing alopecia may be a variant of lichen planopilaris.

This study reports an increase in the use of tamsulosin/finasteride for benign prostatic syndrome in Germany but highlights that reliable comparisons with monotherapies are lacking due to study design deficiencies.

This case report describes a 26-year-old man who experienced persistent sexual dysfunction and other symptoms for 19 months after stopping finasteride for androgenetic alopecia. The authors highlight post-finasteride syndrome's impact on quality of life and stress the need for careful risk-benefit assessment before prescribing.

The effectiveness of finasteride for preventing chronic bacterial prostatitis is unclear.

This retrospective pharmacovigilance study reviewed adverse event reports from 2004 to 2025 for drugs treating benign prostatic hyperplasia, identifying distinct safety signals for α1-blockers, 5ARIs, and PDE5I, including some potential new adverse events that require further investigation.

This study found that BBS7 expression is crucial for maintaining Sonic hedgehog signaling and periodontal ligament homeostasis in occlusal hypofunctional conditions.

This erratum addresses the long-term effects of finasteride on prostate-specific antigen levels but reports no new research findings.

This review critically examines Forensic DNA Phenotyping, highlighting high accuracy in predicting certain traits but also legal and ethical challenges, particularly around regulatory fragmentation and issues of genetic privacy.

This review highlights LTBP1 as a critical integrator in disease processes, showing its dual role in cancer progression and suppression, its pathological influence in fibrosis, and its contribution to various disorders, suggesting its potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target.

This study developed a new method using ultrahigh-power sonication and mass spectrometry to improve protein extraction from hair shafts, identifying 239 differentially expressed proteins related to fetal growth restriction, which were validated as potential noninvasive biomarkers for perinatal diagnostics.

Finasteride may reduce prostate cancer risk.

This study found that in female dogs, exposure to free fatty acids increased androgen production, suggesting a potential link to factors characteristic of polycystic ovary syndrome.

This review discusses concerns about persistent side effects of finasteride, such as sexual dysfunction and suicidal ideation, urging the medical community to recognize and address these issues.

This study identifies comedonal or cystic fibrofolliculomas as novel diagnostic clues for earlier recognition of Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome, potentially facilitating timely surveillance of associated systemic complications.

In this study, FemmeBalance significantly alleviated several PMS symptoms, including physical discomfort and mood disturbance, while also enhancing skin health and social functioning, suggesting it might serve as a viable alternative to traditional PMS treatments.

This study observed an alopecia syphilitica-like pattern of hair loss in a woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting it may be another atypical presentation of the condition.

This review highlights PRF's potential as a regenerative medicine tool, detailing its diverse applications in dentistry, orthopedics, and dermatology, but presents no new clinical results.

This case study discusses a postmenopausal woman's frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planus pigmentosus, controlled with corticosteroids and finasteride, highlighting diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in scarring alopecia.

In this laboratory study, researchers found that human platelet-rich plasma (hPRP) significantly improved the proliferation and hair-inductive capacity of human dermal papilla cells (hDPCs) compared to fetal bovine serum, suggesting hPRP as a potential substitute for FBS in expanding hDPCs for clinical hair regeneration therapies.

This dissertation reveals that FERONIA, a cell wall-binding receptor kinase, plays a crucial role in regulating plant functions such as sugar signaling, pollen tube reception, and RAC/ROP-mediated auxin signaling.

This study aimed to identify characteristics of patients who fail to void during pressure-flow studies, which limits the determination of the cause behind their lower urinary tract symptoms.

In this study, women with PCOS exhibited a significantly elevated low-grade inflammatory profile through salivary cytokines, with IL-1β and TNF-α demonstrating strong potential as non-invasive diagnostic markers, alongside traditional androgen measures like FAI.

In this study, researchers reported significant improvement in sexual function and related symptoms for four patients using off-label flibanserin, suggesting potential broader applications beyond premenopausal women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder.

In this clinical case report, a man with Birt Hogg Dube syndrome presented with parathyroid cancer, the first such case according to the authors, highlighting a potential link between Folliculin gene mutations and parathyroid cancer development.
