Complete androgen insensitivity syndrome presenting with bilateral adnexal masses and mixed gonadal histopathology. (PubMed, Arch Gynecol Obstet)
This rare synchronous pathology illustrates the signifi cant heterogeneity of neoplasia associated withCAIS. Current evidence supports individualized postpubertal gonadectomy to balance the risk of malignancy againstthe benefi ts of endogenous hormonal production. The fi ndings emphasize that long-term follow-up and tailoredsurgical timing are essential components in the clinical management of CAIS.

CREB5 regulates stem cell-like transcriptional programs to enhance tumor progression in prostate cancer. (PubMed, Oncotarget)
In AR-positive cells, CREB5 overexpression promoted cell colony growth with tumorigenic properties and increased tumor size in vivo. These findings implicate CREB5 as a driver of the transcriptional programs underlying AR-independent basal and SCL CRPC subtypes, and this activity is detectable in primary PC.

Chemical identification of the Viola phillipina extracts and their anti-acne activity: A comparison with isotretinoin and salicylic acid. (PubMed, Fitoterapia)
Spearman correlation confirmed that anti-acne activity was positively correlated with synergistic effects of caffeic acid and 6,7-dihydroxycoumarin. In summary, Viola philippica extract exhibits promising multi-target anti-acne potential, supporting its development as a novel multifunctional treatment strategy.

Discovery of a Potent RXRγ Degrader WCF-598 for the Treatment of Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer. (PubMed, J Med Chem)
Notably, WCF-598 also exhibited a secondary activity by degrading androgen receptor splice variant 7 (AR-V7), a clinically relevant driver of therapy resistance in CRPC. These results establish WCF-598 as a specific chemical probe for investigating the function of RXRγ in CRPC and potentially other RXRγ-related diseases.

Restorative effects of Thai Mucuna pruriens seed extract on reproductive, hormonal, and fertility impairments in letrozole-induced PCOS rats. (PubMed, Braz J Biol)
Moreover, TMP restored the fertility index and promoted embryo implantation, comparable to control animals. In conclusion, Thai Mucuna pruriens seed extract, particularly at 300 mg/kg, effectively reversed the reproductive, endocrine, and fertility impairments in letrozole-induced PCOS animal model, suggesting its promising potential as a phytotherapeutic agent for managing PCOS-associated reproductive dysfunction.

Targeting the RNA-binding motif protein 15 suppresses prostate cancer progression and hormone therapy resistance by promoting androgen receptor degradation. (PubMed, Mol Biomed)
Functionally, RBM15 overexpression reduces PCa cell sensitivity to enzalutamide, whereas its knockdown suppresses tumor growth and invasion...Collectively, our findings establish RBM15 as a central epitranscriptomic driver of CRPC and identify the RBM15-DDB1-AR axis as a promising therapeutic target. Dual inhibition of RBM15 and AR may offer a novel strategy to overcome treatment resistance in advanced PCa.

Assessing the prognostic role of androgen receptor expression in non-metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
In this study, AR status showed no association with DFS, BCSS, or OS; and was not a prognostic factor in TNBC. Further studies exploring the role of AR in TNBC are warranted as AR expression could be a potential target with antiandrogen therapy.

Myricetin alleviates testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia by attenuating inflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis and androgen signaling. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
Myricetin treatment also exhibited anti-proliferative and anti-angiogenic effects, as evidenced by the reduced prostatic proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) mRNA expression levels. In summary, myricetin displays potential as a BPH therapy by diminishing inflammation and oxidative stress, hindering 5-α reductase/AR/DHT signaling, and endorsing pro-apoptotic over anti-apoptotic pathways.

Androgen Receptor-Induced Lactoferrin Accelerates Prostate Tumorigenesis Through Modulating Ferroptosis. (PubMed, Adv Sci (Weinh))
Preclinical targeting of this axis suggested a potential therapeutic strategy, as suppressed tumor growth in prostate cancer xenograft was observed following LF knockdown coupled with ferroptosis induction (via IKE) and androgen receptor inhibition (via enzalutamide). This work defines lactoferrin as: (i) an AR-regulated ferroptosis suppressor, (ii) a regulator of prostate cancer's "iron addiction," and (iii) a candidate target for therapeutic exploitation of iron-metabolic vulnerability.

Adenocarcinoma of Mammary Gland Type of the Vulva. (PubMed, Int J Surg Pathol)
Given the rarity of the tumor, it is crucial to distinguish it from morphological mimics to inform appropriate patient management. Treatment approaches are typically based on protocols for primary breast cancer, given the histological and biological similarities between these tumors and breast tissue.
