This study reports that carbamazepine can self-assemble into stable channel structures without guest polymers, while griseofulvin relies on guest molecules for structural stability in drug-polymer inclusion complexes.
This study investigated the molecular mechanisms behind the formation of drug-polymer inclusion complexes and found that carbamazepine can self-assemble into stable channel structures without guest polymers, unlike griseofulvin, which requires guest molecules for structural stability.
September 2023 in “Stem cell reviews and reports” This study introduces a new method to isolate stem cells from the hair follicle outer root sheath of equine skin, demonstrating that these cells, named eMSCORS, proliferate efficiently and can differentiate similarly to adipose tissue-derived MSCs, offering a promising alternative for equine veterinary applications.
March 2022 in “VNU Journal of Science Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences” This study developed a sensitive method using LC-ESI-MS/MS for accurate and reliable measurement of nine steroid hormones in children's serum.
This study found that all examined biomarkers and clinical features were elevated in systemic lupus erythematosus patients, particularly ANA and Anti-dsDNA autoantibodies, but no single biomarker was sensitive or specific enough for diagnosis.
September 2021 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study found that measuring specific steroid hormone levels can aid in diagnosing P450 oxidoreductase deficiency, a subtype of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, by distinguishing affected patients from healthy individuals.
January 2019 in “ARC journal of pharmaceutical sciences” This review traces the historical understanding and treatment of acne across ancient Egyptian, Greek, and Roman civilizations, but provides no new clinical findings.
January 2019 in “Applied Organometallic Chemistry” The compound (NH4)2Mn0.17Cu0.83Cl4.2H₂O has a specific structure, shows weak magnetism at low temperatures, and undergoes phase changes at high temperatures.
December 2016 in “University of Birmingham Institutional Research Archive (University of Birmingham)” This study suggests that the adrenal gland may contribute to prostate cancer treatment resistance and indicates potential steroid production or dependency in ovarian cancer.
March 2014 in “CRC Press eBooks” Some nutrients and antioxidants may improve skin and hair health, but more research is needed to confirm these benefits.
January 2012 in “heiDOK (Heidelberg University)” In this study, researchers observed that dormant TRP-2+ melanoma cells in bone marrow can interact with CD8+ T cells in tumor-bearing ret transgenic mice, potentially influencing immune responses.
June 2007 in “Journal of The Royal Society for The Promotion of Health” Smoking doubles the risk of blindness, and physical exercise helps dyslexic children read better.
August 1994 in “Molecular Endocrinology” This study found that AtT-20 pituitary cells with higher cAMP-dependent kinase activity had larger calcium currents and significantly increased beta-endorphin release compared to cells with lower kinase activity.
December 2025 in “Nature Communications” This study demonstrated that skin organoids derived from human stem cells can model cutaneous tuberculosis, revealing that fibrosis development in Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected organoids is linked to the PI3K-AKT and AP1 pathways in fibroblasts, and suggesting the potential for antifibrotic treatment evaluation.
This research elucidates the molecular mechanisms underlying carbamazepine and griseofulvin's inclusion complex channel formations with polymers, revealing why carbamazepine forms stable channels independently, while griseofulvin requires polymeric support due to weaker interactions.
October 2023 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study constructed a comprehensive atlas of prenatal human skin, revealing that innate immune cells, such as macrophages, play a crucial role in skin morphogenesis by interacting with non-immune cells, influencing hair follicle formation and angiogenesis beyond their traditional immune functions.
January 2021 in “arXiv (Cornell University)” This study found that self-supervised pretraining significantly improves accuracy in medical image classifiers for dermatology and chest X-ray tasks, outperforming supervised baselines and showing robustness to distribution shifts with limited labeled data.
