Targeting abnormal lung fluid metabolism could reduce COVID-19 deaths and ventilator use.
research Recent advances in the molecular mechanisms determining tissue sensitivity to glucocorticoids: novel mutations, circadian rhythm and ligand-induced repression of the human glucocorticoid receptor
New findings explain how genetic changes, body clocks, and certain molecules affect tissue response to stress hormones.
research Augmenting Endogenous Wnt Signaling Improves Skin Wound Healing
Boosting Wnt signaling improves skin wound healing.
research Role of -catenin in Epidermal Stem Cell Expansion, Lineage Selection, and Cancer
Beta-catenin is crucial for skin cell growth, development, and cancer formation.
research Epoxy Fatty Acids and Inhibition of the Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Selectively Modulate GABA Mediated Neurotransmission to Delay Onset of Seizures
EETs can delay seizures by affecting GABA activity, offering potential new treatments for seizures.
research Mitoxantrone
Mitoxantrone with a corticosteroid helps manage symptoms for some advanced prostate cancer patients but doesn't extend life.
