This study found that Pygo2 is crucial for early intestinal hyperproliferation induced by stabilized β-catenin, suggesting it as a potential target for therapeutic intervention in cancers with β-catenin mutation.
December 2015 in “Vascular Pharmacology” Different cells affect hair follicle blood vessels, endothelial cells react differently to inflammation and oxidized fats, and prasugrel better protects heart vessels during a procedure than clopidogrel.
September 2015 in “Fluids and Barriers of the CNS” This study developed simulated skull models and a method to assess programming tool movements, selecting three models as most clinically relevant for hydrocephalus shunt valve programming.
June 2015 in “OhioLink ETD Center (Ohio Library and Information Network)” This study found that acute UVB exposure in mice increases the synthesis of retinoic acid in the epidermis, which is necessary for normal repair from UVB light.
January 2015 in “DSpace@MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology)” This study found that overexpression of the metabolic enzyme PHGDH can promote cancer initiation and progression, highlighting its significant role in tumor cell proliferation and tumorigenesis.
April 2012 in “Cancer Research” This study found that Stat3 influences the differentiation and migration of keratinocytes, potentially impacting epithelial carcinogenesis, by examining Stat3 activation or deletion effects in mouse models.
March 2011 in “European Urology Supplements” CEC levels may be a useful marker for predicting prostate cancer progression.
This study reported that treatment with tamsulosin and finasteride significantly improved symptoms and reduced the risk of clinical progression in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia.

November 1989 in “The Journal of Cell Biology” This study reported that K14 expression patterns and keratin filament organization in human skin's hair follicles differ from those in the epidermis, indicating distinct differentiation programs.
176 citations
,
September 2006 in “Stem Cells” This study found that active BMP signaling prevents epithelial stem cell activation and expansion in hair follicles, while its inhibition leads to HF stem/progenitor cell overproduction and matricomas.
121 citations
