research S1 OPIOID RECEPTOR AGONISTS AND SERUM PROSTATE SPECIFIC ANTIGENE LEVEL: IS THERE A ROLE FOR PROSTATE CANCER CONTROL AND CHEMOPREVENTION?
Opioid use may lower PSA levels, suggesting a possible role in prostate cancer control; PSA testing is useful for detecting prostate cancer; serum triglycerides are not linked to prostate cancer risk; and higher urethral PSA levels may be associated with local hormone activity.
research Does Vitamin D play a role on Msx1 homeoprotein expression involving an endogenous antisense mRNA?*1
Vitamin D affects Msx1 protein expression and may influence mineralized tissue health.
research Alopecia: unapproved treatments or indications
Many treatments for hair loss lack proper testing and FDA approval, so their effectiveness is uncertain.
research Effective amelioration of hepatic inflammation and insulin response in high fat diet-fed rats via regulating AKT/mTOR signaling: Role of Lepidium sativum seed extracts
Lepidium sativum seed extracts helped reduce inflammation and improve insulin response in obese rats on a high-fat diet.
research Spherical Nucleic Acids as Emerging Topical Therapeutics: A Focus on Psoriasis
New topical treatment using spherical nucleic acids shows promise in reducing psoriasis inflammation.
