research Cedrol mitigates hepatic lipid accumulation and adipocyte hypertrophy induced by corticosteroids through the inhibition of glucocorticoid receptor activity
Cedrol may help reduce liver fat and fat cell growth caused by corticosteroids.
research Different effects of phospholipase Dζ2 and non‐specific phospholipase C4 on lipid remodeling and root hair growth in Arabidopsis response to phosphate deficiency
PLDζ2 and NPC4 have different roles in lipid changes and root hair growth in Arabidopsis under low phosphate, with PLDζ2 reducing root hair growth and NPC4 promoting it.
research Ornithine Decarboxylase Expression Leads to Translocation and Activation of Protein Kinase CK2 in Vivo
High ornithine decarboxylase levels may lead to hair loss and cancer by increasing CK2 activity in the nucleus.
research Inhibition of progesterone metabolism mimics the effect of progesterone withdrawal on forced swim test immobility
Blocking progesterone metabolism can cause depression-like behavior in mice.
research The Aromatase Inhibitor Fadrozole and the 5-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride Affect Gonadal Differentiation and Gene Expression in the Frog Silurana tropicalis
Fadrozole and Finasteride change frog sex ratios and cause intersex animals with altered gene expressions.
research RETRACTED ARTICLE: Interaction Study Between Finasteride and Tamsulosin in Healthy Young Male Subjects
research Phototherapy as a Useful Therapeutic Option in the Treatment of Diphenylcyclopropenone-induced Vitiligo

research Biochemical and Structural Characteristics, Gene Regulation, Physiological, Pathological and Clinical Features of Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase as a Multifunctional Lipocalin
Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L-PGDS) is a protein that plays many roles in the body, including sleep regulation, pain management, food intake, and protection against harmful substances. It also affects fat metabolism, glucose intolerance, cell maturation, and is involved in various diseases like diabetes, cancer, and arthritis. It can influence sex organ development and embryonic cell differentiation, and its levels can be used as a diagnostic marker for certain conditions.
