  • Short side chain secosteroids and their 5,7-diene precursors have anti-fibrotic activities, defined by inhibition of TGF-β1-induced collagen protein production and hyaluronan synthesis, with similar potency to 1,25(OH)2D3.

    “Secosteroids with a short side chain and their corresponding 5,7-diene precursors, had anti-fibrotic activities as defined by inhibition of TGF-β1 induced collagen protein production and hyaluronan synthesis, with a similar potency to 1,25(OH)2D3.”
  • 17,20S(OH)2pD and 17,20R(OH)2pD are non-calcemic in mice up to the highest dose tested of 3 μg/kg.

    “we tested 17,20S(OH)2pD and 17,20R(OH)2pD in mice and have found that they are non-calcemic up to the highest dose tested of 3 μg/kg [85].”
  • Pharmacologically administered 20(OH)D3 has antifibrotic activity in vitro and in vivo in bleomycin-induced scleroderma.

    “Pharmacologically administered 20(OH) D3 shows antifibrotic activities both in vitro [57,117,118] and in vivo in bleomycin induced scleroderma [118].”
  • In vitro studies with exogenously added compounds show that novel CYP11A1-derived secosteroids and Δ7-steroids have anti-proliferative, pro-differentiation, and anti-inflammatory effects on cultured skin cells, depending on the compound's structure and the cell lineage.

    “Importantly, in vitro studies with exogenously added compounds reveal that novel CYP11A1-derived secosteroids and Δ7steroids exerts anti-proliferative, pro-differentiation, and anti-inflammatory effects on cultured skin cells, which are dependent on the structure of the compound and the cell lineage [57,104,112,114–119].”
  • They show in vitro anti-proliferative effects against melanoma cells, melanocytes, keratinocytes and fibroblasts and anti-fibrotic activities.

    “they show in vitro anti-proliferative effects against melanoma cells, melanocytes, keratinocytes and fibroblasts as well as anti-fibrotic activities [189, 191, 192, 194, 196, 197]”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
