Browse peer-reviewed studies from PubMed with plain-language summaries. Search by keyword or filter by peptide.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body, influencing processes like hormone regulation, immune response, and tissue repair. Researchers are studying them for applications ranging from metabolic health to neuroprotection. Pepdox collects peer-reviewed studies from PubMed and pairs them with plain-language summaries so you can follow the science yourself.
NLRP3 functions as a critical intracellular danger sensor for inflammasome activation, playing a crucial role in autoimmune diseases. Vitiligo progression has been linked to NLRP3, yet its specific involvement in melanocytes of vitiligo remains poorl…
Oral delivery of peptide therapeutics remains challenging due to gastrointestinal (GI) degradation and poor intestinal absorption. Here, we propose a self-immolative peptide prodrug conjugate (SIPPC) platform for inflammation-targeted oral delivery,…
UNLABELLED: Rice microbiome plays a critical role in the growth, health, stress tolerance, nutrient uptake, root development, and productivity of its host. In this study, advanced machine learning algorithms were applied to analyze the genomic data f…
Consensus-based recommendations (CBRs) are essential for health care decision-making when evidence is limited or conflicting. They can be developed using established methodologies such as the Delphi technique, the nominal group technique (NGT), and t…
BACKGROUND: Medical thoracoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure with high diagnostic yield in undiagnosed exudative pleural effusions. There is limited data on its efficacy and safety from high-volume tertiary centers in India, considering the cha…
Primary mitochondrial myopathies (PMMs), a group of genetic mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation disorders, primarily affect skeletal muscle function. No approved treatments for PMM exist, and patient information is limited. The international RePO…
