Scientists found a new protein, AMY117, common in Alzheimer's patients, which could be important for treatment and diagnosis.
research Molecular Evolution of The Keratin‐associated Protein Gene Family
The KRTAP gene family helps understand hair evolution and hair disorders.
research Double Knockdown of the Androgen Receptor Target Genes DKK1 and SFRP1 Does Not Potentiate the Hair Growth-Promoting Effect of SFRP1 Silencing in Healthy Human Hair Follicles Ex Vivo
Silencing SFRP1 alone promotes hair growth, but adding DKK1 does not help.
research Overexpression of Lnk in the Ovaries Is Involved in Insulin Resistance in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Higher Lnk protein levels in ovaries may lead to insulin resistance in women with PCOS.
