Regulation of cell proliferation depends on stimulatory and inhibitory factors that act in a coordinated manner in response to external signals. Various agents, including mitogens, growth factors, cytokines, and other external factors, can impact the mitotic cell cycle, resulting in either provoking growth, differentiation, or apoptosis. Many kinases, such as protein kinases, regulate mitotic cell proliferation through normal Read More

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic immune-mediated skin condition seriously affecting both children and adults and impacting their quality of life. This complex condition involves genetic predisposition, immune system impairment, and environmental factors. The Janus kinase signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway plays a key role in AD pathogenesis and progression. Abrocitinib presents a hopeful av Read More

Background: Aging is a progressive deterioration characterized by the gradual buildup of physiological alterations as time passes. The aging phenomenon encompasses various interconnected systems within the body, such as the skin, bones, cartilage, and hair. Objective and Methods: In this study, based on the appropriate properties of squalene, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and skin repair properties, a molec Read More

Hypertension, a condition characterized by elevated blood pressure, poses a significant medical risk, particularly in relation to the development of cardiovascular disease. The pathogenesis of hypertension can be influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recent scientific studies have shed light on the involvement of long-non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in various diseases, including pulmonary arterial Read More

One of the most prevalent cancers throughout the world is colorectal cancer (CRC). Natriuretic peptides are important hormones that have a crucial role in the physiology of humans and other animals. There are a variety of treatments for colon cancer. However, conventional therapies have many side effects and low efficacy in the treatment of this disease. Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) is one of the most well-known n Read More

Background: Deficiency of insulin signaling in type 2 diabetes results from insulin resistance or defective insulin secretion and induced hyperglycemia. By reducing glycated hemoglobin, SGLT2 inhibitors improve hyperuricemia, blood lipids, and weight loss without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia. By targeting this pathway, SGLT2 inhibitors can become a prominent target in the management of type 2 diabetes. Obj Read More
