April 2016 in “Journal of experimental botany” This research suggests that the barley protein RACB supports cell polarity functions rather than interfering with immunity, as it aids nucleus positioning during fungal attack rather than affecting early immune responses.
March 2021 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study found that strontium ranelate may promote cartilage regeneration by enhancing chondrogenic differentiation and inhibiting the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in rat models of cartilage defects.
January 2024 in “Genetics in Medicine Open” In this report, two adult patients with Tatton-Brown-Rahman syndrome exhibited new cardiac features, such as atrial fibrillation and ventricular and atrial dilatation, highlighting the importance of cardiovascular follow-up in adults with this condition.
