research Candidate SNP markers of reproductive potential are predicted by a significant change in the affinity of TATA-binding protein for human gene promoters
Certain genetic markers linked to reproductive potential were identified by their impact on a protein's ability to bind to genes.
research Pharmacological investigation of vitamin E with combined oral contraceptives on INHBA gene against PCOS that intricate through melatonin PKC pathway
This study investigates the effects of vitamin E combined with a combined oral contraceptive (COC) on polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in female SD rats, focusing on the melatonin protein kinase C (PKC) pathway. The research utilized both in silico and in vivo methods, revealing that vitamin E and drospirenone (DRSP) have high binding affinity for the INHBA gene. In vivo results showed a significant decrease in testosterone levels and an increase in INHBA gene expression, which stimulates FSH production. The combination of vitamin E and COC was found to be beneficial against PCOS by modulating oxidative stress, influencing circadian rhythm, and affecting the melatonin PKC pathway.
research Low Anabolic Profile in Assessing a Patients Overall Hair Loss
