The conclusion is that using drugs to block the TOR pathway might slow aging and prevent age-related diseases.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Deletion of Deoxyribonucleic Acid Binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor Abrogates Genomic and Nongenomic Functions of Vitamin D
Removing part of the vitamin D receptor stops vitamin D from working properly.
research Vitamin D receptor: molecular signaling and actions of nutritional ligands in disease prevention
Vitamin D receptor interacts with certain dietary components to help prevent diseases and regulate hair growth.
research The Rotterdam Study: 2014 objectives and design update
The Rotterdam Study aims to understand disease causes in the elderly and has found new risk factors and genetic influences on various conditions.
research Functional lacrimal gland regeneration by transplantation of a bioengineered organ germ
Bioengineered lacrimal glands can restore tear production and protect eyes.
research Identification of a secreted BMP antagonist, ectodin, integrating BMP, FGF, and SHH signals from the tooth enamel knot
Ectodin integrates BMP, SHH, and FGF signals in developing ectodermal organs.
research Intradermal adipocytes mediate fibroblast recruitment during skin wound healing
Fat cells help recruit healing cells and build skin structure during wound healing.
research Lipoatrophy and severe metabolic disturbance in mice with fat-specific deletion of PPARγ
Mice lacking the PPARγ gene in their fat cells had almost no fat tissue, severe metabolic problems, and abnormal development of other fat-related tissues.
research Particulate matter 2.5 damages skin cells by inducing oxidative stress, subcellular organelle dysfunction, and apoptosis
Tiny pollution particles called PM2.5 can harm skin cells by causing stress, damage to cell parts, and cell death.
research HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis in transgender women: a subgroup analysis of the iPrEx trial
PrEP for HIV is less effective in transgender women mainly due to low adherence to the treatment.
research Prostaglandin D 2 Inhibits Hair Growth and Is Elevated in Bald Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
PGD2 stops hair growth and is higher in bald men with AGA.
research Lactate dehydrogenase activity drives hair follicle stem cell activation
Lactate production is important for activating hair growth stem cells.
research APCDD1 is a novel Wnt inhibitor mutated in hereditary hypotrichosis simplex
A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.
research Lifestyle changes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Lifestyle changes can improve body composition, excess male hormone levels, and insulin resistance in women with PCOS.
