Certain plasma proteins and genes are linked to obstructive sleep apnea, suggesting potential new treatments.
research Combination of media, biomaterials and extracellular matrix proteins to enhance the differentiation of neural stem/precursor cells into neurons
Using certain small proteins with a growth factor and specific materials can increase the creation of neurons from stem cells.
research Therapeutic effects of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes on stem cell proliferation in irradiated salivary glands via the Wnt pathway
Exosomes from stem cells help repair irradiated salivary glands by boosting cell growth.
research Resident CD34-positive cells contribute to peri-endothelial cells and vascular morphogenesis in salivary gland after irradiation
CD34-positive cells help repair and form new blood vessels in salivary glands after radiation.
research Pre-aggregation of scalp progenitor dermal and epidermal stem cells activates the WNT pathway and promotes hair follicle formation in in vitro and in vivo systems
Grouping certain skin cells together activates a growth pathway that helps create new hair follicles.
research Androgen Dependence of Hirsutism, Acne, and Alopecia in Women
Hirsutism is more linked to high androgen levels than acne or hair loss, and a mix of hormonal tests is best for diagnosis; certain treatments can reduce symptoms.
research Self-organization process in newborn skin organoid formation inspires strategy to restore hair regeneration of adult cells
Newborn mouse skin cells can grow hair and this process can be recreated in adult cells to potentially help with hair loss.
research Novel TMEM173 Mutation and the Role of Disease Modifying Alleles
A new mutation in the STING protein causes a range of symptoms and its severity may be affected by other genetic variations; treatment with a specific inhibitor showed improvement in one patient.
research Radiation-Induced Microvascular Injury as a Mechanism of Salivary Gland Hypofunction and Potential Target for Radioprotectors
Radiation damages salivary glands by harming blood vessels, but antioxidants might help protect them.
research Basics of androgen synthesis and action
Androgens like testosterone are important hormones for both men and women, made differently in each sex and affecting the body by regulating genes and quick interactions with cell components.
research Transcriptome and proteome characterization of surface ectoderm cells differentiated from human iPSCs
