research SARS-CoV-2 infection reduces the number of spermatogonial stem cells and dysregulates the transcriptional landscape of the human testis
COVID-19 can harm male fertility by reducing sperm stem cells and damaging testicular function.
research V Congress of the Portuguese Society of Cosmetological Sciences - Proceedings
The congress showed advancements in skin hydration, barrier function, and safe, effective new cosmetic formulations.
research Expression and roles of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein in ‘non-classical’, extra-adrenal and extra-gonadal cells and tissues
The protein StAR is found in 17 different organs and can affect hair loss and brain functions, but its full role is not yet fully understood.
research Sex hormones and sarcopenia in older persons
Sex hormone treatments can increase muscle mass in older adults but have inconsistent effects on muscle function and may carry cardiovascular risks.
research Human FOXN1-Deficiency Is Associated with αβ Double-Negative and FoxP3+ T-Cell Expansions That Are Distinctly Modulated upon Thymic Transplantation
Thymic transplantation normalized some T-cells but not others, maintaining immune function.
research Chronic administration of minoxidil protects elastic fibers and stimulates their neosynthesis with improvement of the aorta mechanics in mice
Minoxidil helps protect and rebuild elastic fibers in arteries, improving artery function, especially in older females.
research Cardiovascular risk markers and thyroid status in young Indian women with polycystic ovarian syndrome: A case-control study
Young Indian women with PCOS have a higher risk of heart disease, not linked to thyroid function but to higher levels of certain fats and homocysteine.
research Evaluation of the Difference Between non-COVID-19 Pneumonia and COVID-19 Pneumonia Nursing Care
COVID-19 pneumonia requires more intensive care, including monitoring liver functions and DVT, due to higher D-dimer and procalcitonin levels.
research Obesity and peri-implantation endometrium
Obesity negatively affects the endometrium, leading to higher miscarriage risk and impaired cell function.
research Calcineurin-based immunosuppression in renal transplantation : focus on efficacy, the role of steroids, and the cardiovascular risk
Tacrolimus causes fewer acute rejections than cyclosporin A in kidney transplants but doesn't necessarily improve kidney function after one year; cardiovascular risks and side effects vary between the two drugs.
research Extraskeletal actions of vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research Basic mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 infection. What endocrine systems could be implicated?
SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, can affect all endocrine organs and systems, altering their function and potentially leading to disorders. Factors like diabetes and obesity increase infection risk and severity. Understanding these effects is key for effective treatment.
research Development of Novel Indole-Based Bifunctional Aldose Reductase Inhibitors/Antioxidants as Promising Drugs for the Treatment of Diabetic Complications
New indole-based compounds, particularly cemtirestat, show promise as dual-function drugs for diabetic complications.
research Potential Health Benefit of Dates Based on Human Intervention Studies: A Brief Overview
Dates may improve heart health, fight infections, protect kidneys, reduce inflammation, support pregnancy, promote dental and bone health, enhance mental function, and have anti-cancer properties, and are also beneficial for skin and hair care.
research Diuretics
Diuretics help the body get rid of excess salt and water by acting on the kidneys in different ways.
research Exploring Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy for Knee Osteoarthritis: An In-Depth Analysis
PRP injections improve knee function better than other treatments for osteoarthritis.
research The role of WNT10B in physiology and disease: A 10-year update
WNT10B is important for body functions and linked to diseases like osteoporosis, obesity, and cancer.
research Altered resting-state activity in seasonal affective disorder
People with Seasonal Affective Disorder have different brain activity in certain areas when resting.
research Establishment and identification of immortalized sheep ovarian granulosa cells
A stable sheep ovarian cell line was created for studying reproduction and hormones.
research 972 The ATP-dependent chromatin remodeler BRG1 controls epidermal keratinocytes migration during human cutaneous wound healing

research Heterozygous FOXN1 Variants Cause Low TRECs and Severe T Cell Lymphopenia, Revealing a Crucial Role of FOXN1 in Supporting Early Thymopoiesis
FOXN1 gene variants cause low T cells and immune issues from birth.
research Vitamin A resolves lineage plasticity to orchestrate stem cell lineage choices
Vitamin A helps skin stem cells decide their function, aiding in hair growth and wound repair.
research Efficacy and safety of glucocorticoids in the treatment of progressive muscular dystrophy in children: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Glucocorticoids for progressive muscular dystrophy in children don't improve muscle strength or function but do increase certain side effects.
