Malassezia furfur lipids improve skin health at pH 6.
research Conflicting Auxin-Phosphate Signals Impact on RSL2 Expression and ROS-Homeostasis Linked to Root Hair Growth in Arabidopsis
Auxin helps root hairs grow in high phosphate by affecting ROS and involving RSL2 and RSL4.
research Is dehydroepiandrosterone a hormone?
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.
research Female Pseudohermaphroditism Caused by a Novel Homozygous Missense Mutation of the GR Gene
A new gene mutation causes female pseudohermaphroditism due to glucocorticoid resistance.
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 Proliferation, but Not Apoptosis, Is Associated with Distinct β-Catenin Expression Patterns in Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinomas
Distinct β-catenin patterns are linked to cell growth, not cell death, in lung cancer.
research Cepharanthine, a regulator of keap1-Nrf2, inhibits gastric cancer growth through oxidative stress and energy metabolism pathway
Cepharanthine may help treat gastric cancer by causing cancer cell death and affecting energy use.
research Clinical and genetic findings in a Chinese family with VDR-associated hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets
A Chinese family had a child with a specific gene mutation causing vitamin D-resistant rickets, but the child improved with calcium and low-dose calcitriol.
research Impact of Cernitin™ on induced chronic prostatitis in animal model for understanding management of lower urinary tract symptoms
Cernitin™, a pollen extract, was found to significantly reduce pain and inflammation in rats with chronic prostatitis, suggesting it could be a useful alternative to certain anti-inflammatory drugs.
research Generalised Glucocorticoid Resistance
Generalized glucocorticoid resistance causes hormone imbalances and varied symptoms due to gene mutations.
research Characterisation of Myotonic Dystrophy type I cell models and drug evaluation by a cell- based quantification platform.
Antisense oligonucleotides show promise for treating Myotonic Dystrophy type I.
research Data from Elevated Cutaneous Smad Activation Associates with Enhanced Skin Tumor Susceptibility in Organ Transplant Recipients
Higher TGF-β signaling may increase skin cancer risk in organ transplant recipients.
research The murine hair follicle is a melatonin target
Melatonin directly affects mouse hair follicles and may influence hair growth.
research Resveratrol Ameliorates the Seminiferous Tubules Damages Induced by Finasteride in Adult Male Rats
Resveratrol helps prevent finasteride-induced damage in male rats, improving reproductive function.
research Docosahexaenoic acid-acylated astaxanthin esters alleviate cisplatin- induced acute kidney injury by modulating the ferroptosis-related GPX4/xCT signaling pathway and reducing oxidative stress
Krill oil may help reduce prostate enlargement and growth.
research Finasteride
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate, shrinks it, improves urination, but may cause sexual dysfunction and isn't for women or children.
research In situ labeling of DNA reveals interindividual variation in nuclear DNA breakdown in hair and may be useful to predict success of forensic genotyping of hair
In situ DNA labeling in hair can help predict forensic DNA analysis success.
research Protective effects of finasteride against testosterone-induced calcium oxalate crystallization and crystal-cell adhesion
Finasteride helps prevent kidney stones, but side effects need more research.
research 1301 STIM1, but not STIM2, is the calcium sensor critical for sweat secretion
STIM1 is essential for sweat secretion.
research News in brief
Researchers discovered potential origins and new treatments for skin cancer, including biomarkers for melanoma and therapies that reduce tumor growth.
research WNT Signaling in Disease
The WNT signaling pathway is important in many diseases and targeting it could offer new treatments.
research In vivo immunological toxicity in mice of carbon nanotubes with impurities
Pure carbon nanotubes are safe for mice, but impure ones cause immune issues and hair loss.
research Minoxidil activates β-catenin pathway in human dermal papilla cells: A possible explanation for its anagen prolongation effect
Minoxidil helps hair growth by activating the β-catenin pathway.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Wnt signaling induces epithelial differentiation during cutaneous wound healing
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin wound healing and reducing scars.
research Valproic acid promotes human hair growth in in vitro culture model
Valproic acid may help hair grow and could be a safe treatment for hair loss.
research Transient mitochondrial DNA double strand breaks in mice cause accelerated aging phenotypes in a ROS-dependent but p53/p21-independent manner
