Male hormones affect COVID-19 severity and certain drugs targeting these hormones could help reduce the risk.

This study found that specific mutations in the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 may significantly alter its structure and affect how it binds to certain inhibitors, but experimental studies are needed to confirm potential clinical implications.

This study examined noninvasive tissue samples, including buccal swabs, hair follicles, saliva, and urine cell pellets, and found hair follicles and urine cell pellets promising for transcriptomic and clinical analyses due to their sample quality and performance in disease-relevant applications.

This study found that MEGA PROTAC improved the prediction of ternary structures with higher maximum DockQ scores compared to the BOTCP method in 16 out of 22 test cases.

This study suggests that certain Dibenzo derivatives may be promising candidates for prostate cancer treatment due to their potential interactions with the androgen receptor and 5α-reductase enzyme.

This research developed a zinc-doped nanocomposite using biodegradable materials, observing effective bone targeting and regeneration capabilities in vivo, with no observed cytotoxicity in the MG63 cell line, potentially due to blocking Farnesyl Diphosphate Synthetase to inhibit osteoclastic activity and promote osteogenesis.

This review highlights that robot-assisted surgery is still in its early stages within plastic surgery, especially for aesthetic procedures, due to challenges like high costs, equipment bulkiness, and limited docking methods despite the precision advantages offered by such technology.

This study reported that silver nanoparticles biosynthesized from the Dracaena trifasciata plant showed strong antioxidant properties but no anti-inflammatory action in vitro, suggesting these findings may warrant further in vivo animal studies.

This review examines existing research on androgen deprivation therapy and its effects on male sex hormones in relation to COVID-19, but reports no new clinical findings.
