Mutations in the hairless gene in mice affect its expression and lead to a range of developmental issues in multiple tissues.
research A nude mouse model of hypertrophic scar shows morphologic and histologic characteristics of human hypertrophic scar
Nude mice with grafted human skin developed scars similar to human hypertrophic scars.
research Overexpression of aldo-keto reductase 1C3 (AKR1C3) in LNCaP cells diverts androgen metabolism towards testosterone resulting in resistance to the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride
Too much AKR1C3 enzyme causes resistance to finasteride by increasing testosterone.
