research Discovering New Progenitor Cell Populations through Lineage Tracing and In Vivo Imaging
New methods have helped find cells that create other cells in the body.
research Compilation of a comprehensive gene panel for systematic assessment of genes that govern an individual’s drug responses
Researchers found that most genes affecting drug responses are not fully covered by commercial SNP chips, suggesting the need for more comprehensive tools to optimize drug selection based on genetics.
research Polymorphisms in androgen and estrogen receptor genes: effects on male aging
Changes in testosterone and estrogen receptor genes can affect how men age, influencing body fat, hair patterns, and possibly leading to skin disorders.
research Recent Advances in Drug Design and Drug Discovery for Androgen- Dependent Diseases
New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.
research The effects of oestrogens on linear bone growth
Estrogens are key for bone growth spurts in both boys and girls and affect growth into adulthood.
