research Melatonin Alleviates Oxygen-Glucose Deprivation/Reperfusion-Induced Pyroptosis of HEI-OC1 Cells and Cochlear Hair Cells via MT-1,2/Nrf2/ROS/NLRP3 Pathway
Melatonin may protect inner ear cells from damage by reducing cell death and oxidative stress, potentially treating sudden hearing loss.
research Into the Redox Control: N-Acetyl-Cysteine Pleiotropic Effects from the Laboratory to Clinical Applications
N-acetyl-cysteine shows promise in treating various diseases and may improve skin and hair conditions, but more research is needed on dosages and long-term effects.
research Melatonin Promotes the Development of Secondary Hair Follicles in Adult Cashmere Goats by Activating the Keap1-Nrf2 Signaling Pathway and Inhibiting the Inflammatory Transcription Factors NFkB and AP-1
Melatonin improves cashmere goat hair quality by increasing follicles and reducing skin aging.
research Dual Deficiency of Melatonin and Dihydrotestosterone Promotes Stromal Cell Damage and Mediates Prostatitis via the cGAS-STING Pathway in Sleep-Deprived Mice
Lack of sleep in mice leads to prostatitis by reducing certain hormones and activating an inflammatory pathway, which can be temporarily fixed with normal sleep.
research Signaling Pathways and Targeted Therapeutic Strategies for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Effective PCOS treatments require targeting specific signaling pathways.
