Two compounds from Asiasarum heterotropoides roots show potential as lung cancer treatments without harming normal cells.
research Comparison of Pemetrexed and Docetaxel as Salvage Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer After the Failure of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors
Pemetrexed is as effective as docetaxel but has fewer side effects for treating nonsmall-cell lung cancer after EGFR-TKI therapy failure.
research Non-Histone Methylation of SET7/9 and Its Biological Functions
SET7/9 enzyme affects cell growth and diseases like cancer, diabetes, and obesity.
research Unilateral Widespread Lichen Planus Following Blaschko's Lines After Mycoplasma Pneumoniae Infection
An 8-year-old girl developed a rare skin condition in a linear pattern on one side of her body after a lung infection, which improved with treatment.
research Low-Level Laser and Light Therapy
Low-Level Laser Therapy can stimulate healing and cell function, potentially leading to wider medical use.
research A Phase IIA Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial to Study the Efficacy and Safety of the Selective Androgen Receptor Modulator (SARM), MK-0773 in Female Participants with Sarcopenia
MK-0773 safely increased muscle mass but did not improve muscle strength or function in elderly women with sarcopenia.
research Gefitinib: An Adverse Effects Profile
Gefitinib can cause skin problems, diarrhea, and nausea, but rarely causes severe lung disease or hair loss.
research Friends Turned Foes: Angiogenic Growth Factors Beyond Angiogenesis
Some growth factors, while important for normal body functions, can cause diseases when not regulated properly.
research Maternal Androgen Excess Induces Cardiac Hypertrophy and Left Ventricular Dysfunction in Female Mice Offspring
High levels of male hormones in pregnant mice cause heart enlargement and poor heart function in their female babies.
research Efficacy and Toxicity of Pemetrexed or Gemcitabine Combined with Cisplatin in the Treatment of Patients with Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Pemetrexed with cisplatin is safer and more effective than gemcitabine with cisplatin for advanced lung cancer.
research Current Progress on Cordyceps Militaris, Its Metabolite Function, and Production
Cordyceps militaris is a promising, cost-effective medicinal fungus with health benefits and efficient production methods.
research What Does the Concept of the Stem Cell Niche Really Mean Today?
Stem cell niches support, regulate, and coordinate stem cell functions.
research Therapeutic, Prophylactic, and Functional Use of Probiotics: A Current Perspective
Probiotics show promise for health benefits but need more research to understand how they work.
research Stem Cell-Derived Motor Neurons from Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy Patients
The study suggests that motor neurons created from stem cells of patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy show signs of the disease, including changes in protein levels and cell functions.
research Roles of Steroid Sulfatase in Brain and Other Tissues
Steroid sulfatase is important for activating hormones that affect memory, brain function, and certain diseases, and could be a target for treating hormone-related disorders.
research The Effects of Minoxidil on Pulmonary and Systemic Hemodynamics in Hypertensive Men
Minoxidil lowers blood pressure and increases heart efficiency, but may raise lung artery pressure in some people.
research Basic Mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 Infection: Implications for Endocrine Systems
SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, can affect all endocrine organs and systems, altering their function and potentially leading to disorders. Factors like diabetes and obesity increase infection risk and severity. Understanding these effects is key for effective treatment.
research Androgen Effects in Mammals
Testosterone is crucial for development, growth, and various body functions in mammals.
research Calcineurin-Based Immunosuppression in Renal Transplantation: Focus on Efficacy, the Role of Steroids, and Cardiovascular Risk
Tacrolimus causes fewer acute rejections than cyclosporin A in kidney transplants but doesn't necessarily improve kidney function after one year; cardiovascular risks and side effects vary between the two drugs.
