research Predicting therapeutic drugs for hepatocellular carcinoma based on tissue-specific pathways
Securinine and ajmaline may effectively treat liver cancer, with securinine being less toxic to normal cells.
research Expression of AKT1 along with AKT2 in granulosa-lutein cells of hyperandrogenic PCOS patients
The study found that women with hyperandrogenic PCOS have higher levels of AKT1 and AKT2 proteins in their cells, which may lead to cell dysfunction.
research Minoxidil prevents 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine-induced serotonin depletions: role of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channels, Akt and ERK
Minoxidil prevents serotonin loss from MDMA by affecting potassium channels and increasing Akt phosphorylation.
research Perforins Expression by Cutaneous Gamma Delta T Cells
Gamma delta T cells in the skin help with healing and defense but can also cause autoimmune issues, and more research is needed to understand how they are activated.
research 3D-SeboSkin Model for Human ex vivo Studies of Hidradenitis Suppurativa/Acne Inversa
Scientists created a 3D skin model to study a chronic skin disease and test treatments.
research TCM “medicine and food homology” in the management of post-COVID disorders
Traditional Chinese medicinal foods may help manage long-term post-COVID symptoms.
research 461: THE PROFIBROGENIC ROLE OF NEUTROPHIL EXTRACELLULAR TRAPS IN STENOTIC CROHN'S DISEASE: A NEW ANTIFIBROTIC TARGET?
Targeting NETs may help reduce fibrosis in Crohn's disease.
research Stem cells and the circadian clock
The circadian clock influences the behavior and regeneration of stem cells in the body.
research Regulated Proenkephalin Expression in Human Skin and Cultured Skin Cells
Human skin cells produce proenkephalin, which changes with environmental factors and skin diseases.
research Pitx2, a β-catenin-regulated transcription factor, regulates the differentiation of outer root sheath cells cultured in vitro
Pitx2 helps outer root sheath cells differentiate but can't start hair growth on its own.
research Stress-induced c-Jun-dependent Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) Activation Dissects the Non-classical VDR Pathway from the Classical VDR Activity
Stress activates a special function of the Vitamin D receptor with the help of c-Jun, which can also prevent cell death.
research Adenosine stimulates growth of dermal papilla and lengthens the anagen phase by increasing the cysteine level via fibroblast growth factors 2 and 7 in an organ culture of mouse vibrissae hair follicles
Adenosine helps hair grow longer and stronger by boosting certain growth factors and signaling pathways.
research Vitamin D receptor-mediated control of Soggy, Wise, and Hairless gene expression in keratinocytes
Vitamin D receptor helps control hair growth genes in skin cells.
research Oral administration of berberine represses macrophage activation-associated benign prostatic hyperplasia: a pivotal involvement of the NF-κB
Berberine may reduce prostate enlargement by blocking inflammation.
research Low temperature abolishes human cellular circadian rhythm through Hopf bifurcation
Cold temperatures can stop human cell circadian rhythms, but warming restores them.
research Candidate SNP markers of reproductive potential are predicted by a significant change in the affinity of TATA-binding protein for human gene promoters
Certain genetic markers linked to reproductive potential were identified by their impact on a protein's ability to bind to genes.
research Surface modification and endothelialization of biomaterials as potential scaffolds for vascular tissue engineering applications
Improving artificial vascular grafts requires better materials and surface designs to reduce blood clotting and support blood vessel cell growth.
research Androgen‐inducible TGF‐β1 from balding dermal papilla cells inhibits epithelial cell growth: a clue to understanding paradoxical effects of androgen on human hair growth
Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.
research Loss-of-function mutations of an inhibitory upstream ORF in the human hairless transcript cause Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis
Certain mutations in a hair growth-related gene cause a type of genetic hair loss.
research Keratin disorders: from gene to therapy
New treatments targeting specific genes show promise for treating keratin disorders.
research Inhibition of skin 5α-reductase by oral contraceptive progestinsin vitro
Norgestimate is the most effective birth control progestin for reducing an enzyme linked to acne and excessive hair growth in women.
research Exosomal Micro RNAs Derived from Dermal Papilla Cells Mediate Hair Follicle Stem Cell Proliferation and Differentiation
Exosomes from dermal papilla cells help hair growth by making hair follicle stem cells multiply and change.
research Tcf3 promotes cell migration and wound repair through regulation of lipocalin 2
Tcf3 helps cells move and heal wounds by controlling lipocalin 2.
research Spatiotemporal control of CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing
The document concludes that while there are promising methods to control CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, more research is needed to overcome challenges related to safety and effectiveness for clinical use.
research Interactions of the Vitamin D Receptor with the Corepressor Hairless
Most Hairless gene mutations reduce its ability to work with the Vitamin D Receptor, which might explain a certain type of hair loss.
research GLI2-specific Transcriptional Activation of the Bone Morphogenetic Protein/Activin Antagonist Follistatin in Human Epidermal Cells
