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.

research 035 Expansion of bacterial phosphatidylglycerol reactive CD4+ T cells in atopic dermatitis
People with atopic dermatitis have more CD4+ T cells that respond to a certain bacterial lipid, which may play a role in the skin condition's inflammation.
research Inhibition of Inflammatory Gene Expression in Keratinocytes Using a Composition Containing Carnitine, Thioctic Acid and Saw Palmetto Extract
The composition with carnitine, thioctic acid, and saw palmetto extract may effectively reduce inflammation in hair follicle cells.
research Lichen planopilaris (LPP)
Treat active lichen planopilaris early to prevent permanent hair loss.
research Distinct Conditions Support a Novel Classification for Bradykinin-Mediated Angio-Oedema
The conclusion suggests a new way to classify bradykinin-mediated angio-oedema based on different causes and its possible link with urticaria, which could improve diagnosis and treatment.
research Basement membrane changes in lichen planopilaris
Basement membrane changes in lichen planopilaris cause scarring and permanent hair loss.

Early diagnosis and targeted anti-inflammatory treatments can improve outcomes in androgenetic alopecia with perifollicular inflammation and fibrosis.
research GPX4 mRNA levels in the PMNs are negatively correlated with autoantibody production, disease activity and lupus alopecia in SLE
Lower GPX4 mRNA levels are linked to higher disease activity and symptoms in lupus patients.
research Diagnostic dilemma: Multiple Autoimmune Syndrome versus incomplete Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome overlap mixed connective tissue disease
The case shows how hard it is to tell apart Multiple Autoimmune Syndrome from other similar autoimmune conditions, but correct diagnosis is key for treatment to work.
research LP-161 Tjalma syndrome (Pseudo-Pseudo Meigs Syndrome): polyserositis with increased CA-125 in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus
