Ruxolitinib significantly improves multiple autoimmune conditions in APS-1 patients.
research Distinct Mechanisms for Sebaceous Gland Self-Renewal and Regeneration Provide Durability in Response to Injury
Sebaceous glands can heal and regenerate after injury using their own stem cells and help from hair follicle cells.
research The Identification of Molecular Mechanisms from Bioactive Compounds in Sansevieria Trifasciata Plant as Anti-Alopecia: In-Silico Approach
Compounds from the Sansevieria trifasciata plant might be effective for treating hair loss.
research Abstracts
The document reports findings on genetic research, including ethical concerns about genome editing, improved diagnosis of mitochondrial mutations, solving inherited eye diseases, confirming gene roles in epilepsy, linking a gene to aneurysms, and identifying genes associated with age-related macular degeneration.
research Outcome and Clinical-Biological Characteristics of Patients with Advanced Breast Cancer Undergoing Removal of Ovarian/Pelvic Metastases
Patients with advanced breast cancer and high hormone receptor levels who had surgery for ovarian/pelvic metastases lived longer, especially if they had high estrogen receptor levels.

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.
