Low oxygen levels help hair follicle stem cells turn into heart muscle cells faster.
research Effect of a transcriptional inactive or absent vitamin D receptor on beta-cell function and glucose homeostasis in mice
Mice without active or present vitamin D receptors maintain normal blood sugar control and islet gene expression when calcium levels are normal.
research Rat steroid 5α-reductase kinetic characteristics: Extreme pH-dependency of the type II isozyme in prostate and epididymis homogenates
The activity of a specific rat enzyme in the prostate and epididymis is highly dependent on the acidity level.
research Deferasirox, an oral iron chelator, prevents hepatocarcinogenesis and adverse effects of sorafenib
Deferasirox combined with sorafenib reduces liver cancer risk and lessens treatment side effects.
