This study reviews the role of the zinc finger protein CXXC5 in cellular signaling and its implications for cancer, discussing how its dysregulation is linked to various physiological and pathological processes, as well as potential therapies targeting CXXC5.

This article reviews current knowledge on KATP channel drug binding modes through cryogenic electron microscopy, highlighting distinct binding sites in the sulfonylurea receptor and potential mechanisms of drug action, but reports no new experimental results.

This study suggests that residues Val-889 and Arg-752 in the androgen receptor's steroid binding domain are crucial for NH2-/carboxyl-terminal interaction, affecting receptor stability and function.

This study concluded that CNGC14 is a calcium-permeable channel crucial for polarized tip growth in Arabidopsis root hairs, but other channels may also influence the observed calcium influx.

This study found that the co-activator CBP enhances the agonistic action of hydroxyflutamide on androgen receptors, suggesting a mechanism for therapy resistance in prostate cancer.

This study found that multiple ion channel modulators, used here at clinical concentrations, increased intracellular calcium release in prostate and breast cancer cell lines.

In this study, OCT showed strong nuclear binding in certain skin cells, suggesting similar genomic effects to vitamin D with potential therapeutic benefits due to its lower calcaemic effect.

This study demonstrated radiocalcium uptake in skin, eye, cartilage, and mucous glands, with the highest concentration in the hair follicle's keratogenous zone.

This review provides an in-depth analysis of the structure and function of c-kit activation, and its role in both normal physiological and pathological conditions, with no new research findings reported.

This study demonstrated that switching aE-catenin to aT-catenin in murine skin substantially rescued hyperproliferative and pre-cancerous conditions, but led to partial baldness, indicating potential functional discrepancies.

This chapter discusses the synthesis and analysis of near-infrared fluorescent activity-based probes for imaging cysteine protease activity, reporting potential benefits for disease diagnosis but noting challenges in imaging specific locations with high cathepsin activity.

This study examined uncharacterized CYP21A2 gene variants related to non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia and found that several mutations reduce enzyme activity, which may help improve diagnostic and treatment strategies.

This article reports a rare case of squamous cell carcinoma with miliary calcification in a cutaneous horn, suggesting possible involvement of calcium-binding proteins in this unique presentation.

This study found that novel androgen antagonists incorporating a carborane moiety showed anti-androgenic activity comparable to flutamide in a laboratory setting.

This study found that L-type channel blockers can induce hair growth in Timothy syndrome by overcoming delays in anagen phase, suggesting a potential therapeutic role for tissue regeneration.

This review focuses on S100A6, a Ca²⁺-binding protein, detailing its role in cell functions, the regulation of its expression, and its potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target in various diseases.

This study found that certain CYP21A2 mutations significantly reduce enzyme activity, contributing to non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia phenotypes, which may aid in enhancing diagnosis and treatment strategies.
