This study found that neuroactive steroids like DHEA and pregnenolone influence cocaine-induced appetence in mice through their interaction with the ς₁ receptor, suggesting a role in individual vulnerability to addiction.

5-ARI therapy may help prevent prostate cancer progression.

This study defines two types of RDEB wounds, chronic open and recurrent, and finds that patient self-reports on wound size correlate well with investigator measurements when complemented by serial photography.

This article discusses the rationale, design, major findings, and updated objectives and methods of the ongoing Rotterdam Study on various diseases, without reporting new research results.

A new EDA gene mutation was found in a Chinese family with a specific skin disorder.

This review discusses the role of the enzyme Δ9-desaturase-1 in skin lipid regulation and whole-body energy balance in mice and reports no new experimental results.

This study presents the design of an autonomous bioregeneration chamber that aims to extend human lifespan to 130-150 years by optimizing biological and environmental conditions, suggesting that a longer healthspan is possible through technological, nutritional, and socio-economic interventions.

This study highlights a rare case of vitamin D-dependent rickets type 2A caused by a heterozygous mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene, emphasizing the complexity of managing this condition with high-dose calcium and vitamin D therapy.

This case report highlights an 11-year-old girl with dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis, identifying associated Salzmann's nodular degeneration of the cornea and emphasizing the need for a multidisciplinary management approach.

This study found that sodium metabisulfite activates sodium channels and increases cellular excitability and excitotoxicity in both cardiomyocyte and neuron models, which exacerbates seizures and neuronal damage in rats.

In laboratory models of human skin, this study found that treating with resveratrol significantly increased glutathione levels, potentially enhancing the skin's antioxidant defenses.
