Association between PITX2 polymorphism and androgenetic alopecia in the Indian population.

Background Androgenetic alopecia, also known as male pattern baldness, is a common form of hair loss influenced by environmental, hormonal, and genetic factors. According to recent research, the PITX2 gene may play a key role in the pathophysiology of androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Objective This study examines the association between genetic variants of the PITX2 gene and AGA risk.

Engineering Whole-Cell Biosensors for Enhanced Detection of Environmental Antibiotics Using a Synthetic Biology Approach.

Bacterial Two component systems have evolved with many intricate sensory apparatuses for external stimuli like light, temperature, oxygen, pH and chemical compounds. Recent studies have shown the potential of two-component regulatory systems (TCSs) of bacteria in creating synthetic regulatory circuits for several applications. Antimicrobial resistance is increasing globally in both developing and developed countries and it is one of the foremost global threats to public health.
