research Unlocking The Potential Of Ganoderma Lucidum: Exploring The Efficacy Of Reishi Mushroom Extract In Promoting Hair Growth And Scalp Health
The study explores the efficacy of Ganoderma lucidum (reishi mushroom) extract in promoting hair growth and scalp health by inhibiting 5α-reductase isoform 2 (5αR2), a key enzyme involved in hair loss. Using an in vitro model with murine fibroblast BALB/3T3 cells pre-treated with testosterone, the researchers found that G. lucidum significantly inhibited 5αR2 expression, with effects comparable to known botanicals like Serenoa repens, Ajuga reptans, and the pharmaceutical finasteride. These findings suggest that G. lucidum could be effective in treating hair loss, though further in vivo studies are needed to confirm these results.

research Atypical Progeroid Syndrome Due to Heterozygous Missense LMNA Mutations
The research found that Atypical Progeroid Syndrome has unique symptoms and is not caused by the buildup of a certain mutant protein.
research A Transition State Analogue of 5′-Methylthioadenosine Phosphorylase Induces Apoptosis in Head and Neck Cancers
The study demonstrated that MT-DADMe-ImmA, a potent inhibitor of MTAP, effectively induced apoptosis in head and neck cancer cell lines FaDu and Cal27 by increasing MTA levels and decreasing polyamines, leading to mitochondrial changes and activation of caspases. This treatment selectively targeted cancer cells without affecting normal fibroblasts, suggesting its potential as a cancer treatment. In a mouse model, MT-DADMe-ImmA led to tumor remission, highlighting its promise for cancers sensitive to DNA methylation changes. Despite inducing apoptosis, the treatment did not alter the protein levels of mitochondrial markers Bcl2 and Bax.
