research Reductive Stress Selectively Disrupts Collagen Homeostasis and Modifies Growth Factor-independent Signaling Through the MAPK/Akt Pathway in Human Dermal Fibroblasts
Reductive stress messes up collagen balance and alters cell signaling in human skin cells, which could help treat certain skin diseases.
research Is Dutasteride a Therapeutic Alternative for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis?
Dutasteride, usually used for prostate issues and hair loss, could potentially treat Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) due to its neuroprotective, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties, but more testing is needed.
