Inhalation therapy may repair and protect elastin in the lungs of COPD patients.
research Cleave but not leave: Astrotactin proteins in development and disease
Astrotactin proteins are important for brain and skin development and are linked to several neurodevelopmental disorders.
research Treating psychogenic nonepileptic seizures: Easier said than done
Progesterone treatment improved seizures in a woman with menstrual cycle-related epilepsy, but a wrong medication worsened her condition.
research Androgenetic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness may be caused by factors like poor blood circulation, scalp tension, stress, and hormonal imbalances, but the exact causes are still unclear.
research Biomaterials and Stem Cells: Promising Tools in Tissue Engineering and Biomedical Applications
Biomaterials combined with stem cells show promise for improving tissue repair and medical treatments.
research Why were Sardinians the shortest Europeans? A journey through genes, infections, nutrition, and sex
Sardinians were historically short due to a mix of genetics and factors like disease and poor nutrition, but recent height increases suggest better living conditions had a bigger impact.
research Taming of Covid-19: potential and emerging application of mesenchymal stem cells
Mesenchymal stem cells show promise in treating COVID-19 by reducing inflammation and aiding recovery, but more research is needed.
research Sexual dimorphism following in vitro ischemia in the response to neurosteroids and mechanisms of injury
Male tissue has more cell death than female tissue after ischemia, and some neurosteroids only protect female cells.
research Dermal‐Epidermal Cross‐Talk: Differential Interactions With Microvascular Endothelial Cells
Human dermal fibroblasts help microvascular endothelial cells grow, but not vice versa.

Sertoli cell transplants can reduce inflammation and improve sperm quality.
research Three-dimensional reconstructions of mechanosensory end organs suggest a unifying mechanism underlying dynamic, light touch
Dynamic, light touch is sensed through a common mechanism involving Piezo2 channels in sensory axons.
research Canonical and non-canonical Wnt signaling control the regeneration of amputated rodent vibrissae follicles
Both main and alternative Wnt signaling are important for regrowing rodent whisker follicles.
research Weight loss regimens that control for carbohydrate quality or quantity: a review
Low-glycemic index diets are beneficial for weight loss and satiety, but more research is needed on long-term effects and individualized approaches are recommended.
research The biology and clinical application of systemic glucocorticoids
Glucocorticoids are powerful anti-inflammatory drugs that must be used carefully to avoid serious side effects.
