research Delayed Onset Perforating Folliculitis Associated with Sorafenib
Sorafenib can cause delayed skin problems, so patients need careful monitoring.
research Management of Toxicities of Targeted Therapies
Targeted therapies for lung cancer are effective but require careful management of side effects to benefit patients.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research From Neural Crest Cells to Melanocytes: Cellular Plasticity During Development and Beyond
Melanocyte development from neural crest cells is complex and influenced by many factors, and better understanding could help treat skin disorders.
research Cellular Senescence in Tissue Repair: Every Cloud Has a Silver Lining
Cell aging can be both good and bad for tissue repair.
research Oncogenic Senescence: A Multi-Functional Perspective
Cellular senescence has both cancer-blocking and cancer-promoting effects, and targeting senescent cells may improve health and lifespan.
research The VEGF +405 G>C 5' Untranslated Region Polymorphism and Risk of PCOS: A Study in South Indian Women
The VEGF +405G allele may increase the risk of PCOS in South Indian women.
research Expression and Function of Nuclear Receptor Co-Activator 4: Evidence of a Potential Role Independent of Co-Activator Activity
NcoA4 may have roles beyond helping control gene activity, possibly affecting cell behavior and stability.
research In Silico Analysis of Gene Expression Data from Bald Frontal and Haired Occipital Scalp to Identify Candidate Genes in Male Androgenetic Alopecia
