research 560 Isolation of an “early” transit amplifying keratinocyte population in interfollicular human epidermis: a role for CD271 receptor
Scientists found a new type of skin cell that could help with skin repair and these cells work better with a certain protein.
research Blocking α1‐integrin reverts the adhesive phenotype of adult fibroblasts towards a foetal‐like migratory phenotype
Blocking α1-integrin makes adult fibroblasts more like foetal ones, improving their movement and aiding wound healing.
research Neurosteroids Involved in Regulating Inhibition in the Inferior Colliculus
Neurosteroids help balance brain signals when certain inhibitions are reduced.
research Dermal Papilla Cells from Human Hair Follicles Express mRNA for Retinoic Acid Receptors in Culture
research The Relationship Between Glycine and Gephyrin in Synapses of the Rat Spinal Cord
Glycine is a key transmitter in rat spinal cord synapses, often alongside GABA.
research 078 The transmembrane protein LRIG1 regulates receptor tyrosine kinases in skin development and homeostasis
LRIG1 protein affects hair growth by regulating skin receptors, leading to hair loss when overexpressed.
research Agouti and Agouti-related Protein: Analogies and Contrasts
Agouti and AGRP affect pigmentation and obesity, with implications for metabolic disorders.
research A simple immunofluorescence technique for simultaneous visualization of mast cells and nerve fibers reveals selectivity and hair cycle - dependent changes in mast cell - nerve fiber contacts in murine skin
Mast cell and nerve fiber interactions in mouse skin change with the hair cycle.
research 5alpha-reductase 2 inhibition impairs brain defeminization of male rats: Reproductive aspects
5alpha-reductase 2 is crucial for proper male brain development and sexual differentiation.
research Phase-specific differential regulation of mechanical allodynia in a murine model of neuropathic pain by progesterone
Progesterone initially worsens but later reduces neuropathic pain in mice, through different mechanisms.
research Role of 5α-reductase inhibitors in androgen-stimulated skin disorders.
5α-reductase inhibitors like finasteride and dutasteride can help treat skin disorders stimulated by androgens, such as hair loss and acne.
research The investigation of selective sphingosine-1 phosphate receptor 1&4 modulator to treat alopecia areata mouse model 2881
The S1PR 1&4 modulator may effectively treat alopecia areata by reducing hair loss and immune cell activity.
research Phytochemicals With Anti 5-alpha-reductase Activity: A Prospective For Prostate Cancer Treatment
Plant-based compounds might be effective, low-side-effect treatments for prostate cancer by blocking a specific enzyme.
research Synthesis and structure–activity investigation of iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins for development as androgen receptor radioligands
Scientists created iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins that could potentially be used for imaging prostate cancer. Some versions with specific side-chains showed high potential for this use.
research Ornithine decarboxylase expression in cutaneous papillomas in SENCAR mice is associated with altered expression of keratins 1 and 10.
High ODC and low K1 and K10 may indicate early skin tumors in mice.
research Sequence Analysis and Expression of a TypeIHair Keratin Gene in Goat Skin
The goat hair keratin gene is very similar to sheep's and is strongly expressed in goat hair follicles.
research Adenosine A2B receptor: A pathogenic factor and a therapeutic target for sensorineural hearing loss
Blocking adenosine A2B receptor may prevent or treat hearing loss.
research ABSTRACTS—SYMPOSIA
Certain drugs can block changes in brain receptors caused by alcohol withdrawal.
research Pharmacophore Modeling and Three Dimensional Database Searching for Drug Design Using Catalyst: Recent Advances
The document concludes that Catalyst software is effective for drug design, identifying potent compounds for various medical conditions.
research 013 IL-15/IL-15Rα signaling is a guardian of human hair follicle immune privilege and promotes hair growth
IL-15 promotes hair growth and protects hair follicles.
research Early androgen activity after birth determines the hypothalamic expression of androgen and estrogen receptors in adulthood in female but not in male rats
Early androgen exposure affects hormone receptor expression in adult female rats' brains, but not in males.
research 5α-Reductase activity in the human hair follicle concentrates in the dermal papilla
The enzyme that changes testosterone to a stronger form is mostly found in the part of the hair follicle called the dermal papilla.
research Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor and proglucagon expression in mouse skin
Mice skin has components that could help with hair growth and might be used for diabetes treatment.
research Activation of liver X receptors inhibits experimental fibrosis by interfering with interleukin-6 release from macrophages
Activating liver X receptors can reduce fibrosis by stopping certain immune cells from releasing harmful proteins.
research Analysis of breast health outcomes in women on oral 5-alpha reductase inhibitors: A single-center retrospective cohort study
Oral 5-alpha reductase inhibitors do not increase breast cancer or benign breast disorder risk in women.
research Hair Vibrissa Follicle Morphogenesis is Linked to the Expression of Retinoic Acid Receptors α and γ Genes
Retinoic acid receptors are important for hair follicle development.
