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 High-resolution structures of mutants of residues that affect access to the ligand-binding cavity of human lipocalin-type prostaglandin D synthase

research Successful rapid subcutaneous desensitization to anakinra in a case of delayed‐type hypersensitivity reaction
A woman with a drug allergy to anakinra was successfully desensitized, allowing her to continue treatment without allergic reactions.
research AIMP1-derived peptide secreted from hair follicle stem cells activates dermal papilla cells to promote hair growth
A peptide from hair follicle stem cells promotes hair growth by activating specific skin cells.
research Deletion analysis of AGD1 reveals domains crucial for its plasma membrane recruitment and function in root hair polarity
AGD1's PH domain is essential for its role in root hair growth and polarity.
research Matriptase-2, A Novel Suppressor of Hepcidin.
Matriptase-2 helps control iron levels by suppressing hepcidin, and its deficiency can cause iron-deficiency anemia.
research 973 Dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 (DPP4)-positive fibroblasts are responsible for secretion of pro-fibrotic matrix proteins in the human skin
DPP4-positive fibroblasts play a major role in producing proteins that lead to skin fibrosis.
