Chemicals from the plant Dicerocaryum senecioides were found to safely speed up and increase hair growth in mice.
research Differential effects of Wnt5a on the proliferation, differentiation and inflammatory response of keratinocytes
Wnt5a may contribute to psoriasis by reducing skin cell growth, blocking skin cell maturation, and increasing inflammation.
research Single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with elevated alanine aminotransferase in patients receiving asunaprevir plus daclatasvir combination therapy for chronic hepatitis C
Certain genetic variations are linked to higher liver enzyme levels in patients treated for chronic hepatitis C with specific drugs.
research Increased Incidence of Telogen Effluvium Following Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy in Patients with Elevated TNF-α Expression: A Prospective Cohort Study
