research In silico investigation of possible multi-target drugs against Glutamate S-transferase and prolyl tRNA synthetase in Onchocerca volvulus
Bedaquiline, Telmisartan, Diosmin, Azelastine, and Adapalene may be effective treatments for onchocerciasis.
research Photosensory Function, Reception and Response in Human Skin
Human skin responds to light with protective mechanisms, but more research is needed to understand these processes and their implications for health and therapy.
research The Chicken Frizzle Feather Is Due to an α-Keratin (KRT75) Mutation That Causes a Defective Rachis
A mutation in the KRT75 gene causes frizzle feathers in chickens.
research Novel missense mutation in the EDA gene in a family affected by oligodontia
Researchers found a new mutation in the EDA gene that likely causes missing teeth and mild skin symptoms in one family.
