A rare hair follicle disorder can cause itchy, bluish-black bumps on the body.
research The blastema and epimorphic regeneration in mammals
Mammals might fail to regenerate not because they lack the right cells, but because of how cells respond to their surroundings, and changing this environment could enhance regeneration.
research Human hair shaft proteomic profiling: individual differences, site specificity and cuticle analysis
Human hair proteins vary by individual, body site, and ethnicity, useful for forensics.
research Co-secretion of testosterone and cortisol by a functional adrenocortical oncocytoma
A woman's rare adrenal tumor caused high testosterone and cortisol levels, which normalized after the tumor was removed.
research Endocrine Functions of the Testes
The testes produce important hormones like testosterone and others that play key roles in male body functions.
research Skin development in the gray short‐tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica)—From skin respiration to thermoregulation
Gray short-tailed opossums' skin shifts from helping with breathing to regulating body temperature as they grow.
