FUT means Follicle Unit Extraction. This is a technique of hair transplant. In this, a linear cut is given on the back side of the head to harvest a strip having multiple follicles. This technique is a very good technique but slowly in India, its use is decreasing because it needs a big trained team of assistants and more experience of the surgeon. The FUT is mainly done by plastic surgeons.

Cell study finds that amygdalin inhibits cell proliferation and induces cytotoxicity in multiple breast cancer cell lines, including TNBC.

The Pharmacists' Defence Association (PDA) has expressed concerns over Boots UK's decision to reduce supplemental opening hours at some pharmacies. The association stated: "Some pharmacists and other staff at Boots are being notified this week of changes to opening hours at their place of work, with local briefings taking place. The PDA are supporting their members to deal with any potential impact on their employment." It said that reducing pharmacy opening hours would affect patients' access to a trusted healthcare professional, especially if it is being done by the largest community pharmacy multiple. It even called upon the NHS to adequately fund community pharmacies to ensure they remain open when patients and local communities need their services. Meanwhile, Boots management has informed PDA that most of its employees are not pharmacists, and "less pharmacists are expected to be directly impacted by these changes than other colleagues," PDA said.

Increased demand and shortages of lateral flow tests are pushing staff at pharmacies to bear the brunt from frustrated customers who are unable to get their free lateral flow tests, Daily Mail reported. Some Britons claimed that they have been unable to get lateral flow tests at their local pharmacies for up to a fortnight while some pharmacies were forced to put up sign warning stating they have run out of free tests. Given the patchy supply of test kits, pharmacy bosses warned that staff are facing 'unfair' and 'abusive' behaviour by customers, the newspaper reported.Dr Leyla Hannbeck, chief executive of the Association of Independent Multiple Pharmacies (AIMP), told the newspaper: "Up until yesterday the supply to pharmacies was still patchy. The past few days the situation has not improved. "Pharmacies are having to put up with a lot of abuse and aggressive behaviours by members of the public because of this situation which is unfair. "The demand is still very high now because the governments guidelines put a lot of emphasis on testing as a key out of self isolation, so naturally as Omicron cases are high people are reliant on tests to get on with daily life."

effect of time and temperature on the viability of melanoma cell lines and expression of HSP 70 & 90 after brief exposure to hyperthermia. While hyperthermia has multiple mechanisms of action, this paper elucidates two essential benefits of high-dose hyperthermia. First, the study illustrates why high-dose hyperthermia treatments (45°C - 47°C) are so much more effective than the low-dose hyperthermia (39°C - 43°C) produced by commercially available heating devices.

high dietary fatty acids linked to metabolic syndrome through TLR.

Granted, this study was in an animal model of MS, but signaling through ER-beta was shown to decrease inflammation from astrocytes and microglial cells in the brain.  These immune cells are known to play prominent roles in excitotoxic diseases such as MS.  So, again, it is not just about the message, but also about how the message is interpreted.

increasing BMI associated with decreasing vitamin D levels

Study finds that obesity is linked to lower vitamin D.  Not that there is merely an association, but that the elevated BMI is the cause of lower vitamin D levels.

ER-beta agonist activity/agnoists inhibit inflammatory gene expression in microglia and astrocyte cells.

Polymorphisms in GST appear to play a role in MS.

High dose Estriol found to be effective therapy in Th1 MS.  This pilot study used 8mg of Estriol daily.

Pregnancy is a immunosuppressive state.  Estriol therapy mimics that through decrease in T cell migration and activation.  Estriol moved the Tcells to a Th2 dominance and also was found to inhibit NF-kappaB.  Estriol decreased TNF-alpa through IL-10 production.

Estriol and Progesterone associated, as found with pregnancy, associated with decrease in Th1 autoimmune disease.
