February 2023 in “BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies” This study found that Forsythiaside A may protect against sepsis-induced acute kidney injury in mice by reducing inflammation and apoptosis through modulation of ER stress responses.
March 2025 in “Laboratory Investigation” This systematic review found that mixed epithelial and stromal tumor of the seminal vesicle (MESTSV) is characterized by abundant stromal proliferation, architectural heterogeneity, and strong immunoreactivity for ER/PR, with most being benign but warranting surveillance for possible recurrence or metastasis.
July 2026 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” In this study, researchers found that the efflux of calcium in root hairs of Arabidopsis thaliana, particularly through the ER-localized ACA2 and ACA7, is crucial for modulating cytoplasmic calcium signals and enabling proper root hair growth, with disruptions leading to impaired elongation.
January 2025 in “Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery” This review indicates that various laser therapies, alone or combined with other treatments, show potential in improving hair density and treating androgenetic alopecia, but outcomes can vary, underscoring the importance of personalized treatment.
