June 2026 in “Functional Foods in Health and Disease” This study found that water extract of olive leaf may enhance markers linked to epidermal and dermal stem cell activity and potentially improve skin aging, especially in individuals who do not exercise regularly.
This research highlights selenium's critical roles in various biological processes and underscores the potential health impacts of both its deficiency and excess, including increased mortality risk, poor immune function, and neurological issues.
June 2025 in “International Journal of Nephrology and Renovascular Disease” This study suggests that PLA2R1 overexpression in PMN affects the podocyte cycle and may involve an additional immune response, which could provide new directions for PMN treatment development.
This literature review reports that mesenchymal stem cell-derived secretome, including conditioned medium and extracellular vesicles, shows promise as an effective treatment for various diseases in animal and human in-vivo models, with ongoing clinical trials and recommendations for future research discussed.
December 2023 in “Pakistan Journal of Medical & Health Sciences” This study found that in South Asian women with PCOS, the severity of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is strongly linked to early renal dysfunction, as indicated by increased serum creatinine and urinary albumin levels, and reduced eGFR.
October 2023 in “Journal of health sciences and medicine :” This study aimed to characterize the dermatological findings in patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing maintenance hemodialysis and explore their relationship with demographic and clinical features, although specific results are not reported in the abstract.
June 2023 in “British Journal of Dermatology” This study reports a unique case of coinheritance of BRCA2 and CYLD pathogenic variants in a man with metastatic malignant cylindroma, suggesting that recognizing such genetic profiles in rare conditions can provide new treatment options, including the potential use of therapies targeting BRCA deficiency.
March 2023 in “International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR)” This article discusses iron deficiency anemia, its health implications, and the effectiveness of oral iron supplements in treatment, but reports no new clinical findings.
May 2022 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This review summarizes research on individual Chinese herbal extracts that may inhibit mechanisms of renal fibrosis, but it reports no new experimental findings.
November 2020 in “Elsevier eBooks” This source outlines various antiandrogen and androgen inhibitor drugs used to treat cutaneous disorders of hyperandrogenism, detailing their mechanisms, uses, dosages, and side effects, with emphasis on spironolactone, finasteride, dutasteride, and oral contraceptives.
June 2020 in “Nihon Ika Daigaku Igakkai Zasshi” This study found that aPKCλ, but not aPKCζ, plays a critical role in maintaining hair follicle stem cell populations and promoting wound healing in the epidermis.
