Mutations in certain receptors can cause diseases and offer new treatment options.
research Differential expression of steroid 5α-reductase isozymes and association with disease severity and angiogenic genes predict their biological role in prostate cancer
SRD5A1 is crucial in advanced prostate cancer, and blocking both SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 is more effective than targeting SRD5A2 alone.
research Intracellular Calcium Mobilization in Response to Ion Channel Regulators via a Calcium-Induced Calcium Release Mechanism
Certain drugs increase calcium levels in cancer cells by triggering internal calcium release.
research K channel therapeutics at the bedside
Potassium channel openers are effective in treating heart conditions, high blood pressure, pulmonary diseases, bladder issues, and hair loss, but more selective drugs are needed.
