research Testosterone-like immunoreactivity in hair measured in minute sample amounts - a competitive radioimmunoassay with an adequate limit of detection
The new test can measure very small amounts of testosterone in hair, and grinding the hair up first gives more accurate results.
research A simple method using ex vivo culture of hair follicle tissue to investigate intrinsic circadian characteristics in humans
Researchers developed a way to study human body clocks using hair tissue, which works similarly in both healthy and dementia patients.
research Microscopical characterization of known postmortem root bands using light and scanning electron microscopy
The research found that postmortem root bands in hair are likely caused by the breakdown of a specific part of the hair's inner structure after death.
research Current Concepts and Translational Uses of Platelet Rich Plasma Biotechnology
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) shows promise for tissue repair and immune response, but more research is needed to fully understand it and optimize its use.
research The spread of antimicrobial resistance in the aquatic environment from faecal pollution: a scoping review of a multifaceted issue

research Acquired immunogenicity of DNA after modification with malondialdehyde in patients with alopecia areata
Malondialdehyde-modified DNA may trigger an immune response in alopecia areata patients.
research Expression of an Olfactomedin-Related Gene in Rat Hair Follicular Papilla Cells
FP-1 is a key protein in rat hair growth, active only during the growth phase.
research The effect of minocycline on the metabolism of androgens by human oral periosteal fibroblasts and its inhibition by finasteride
Minocycline may cause hair loss by increasing DHT levels, but finasteride can help counteract this effect.
research Mechanism of apoptosis in oral squamous cell carcinoma promoted by cardamonin through PI3K/AKT signaling pathway
Cardamonin may help treat oral cancer by promoting cell death and stopping cancer cell growth.
research Cthrc1 deficiency aggravates wound healing and promotes cardiac rupture after myocardial infarction via non-canonical WNT5A signaling pathway
CTHRC1 is essential for healing and preventing heart rupture after a heart attack.
research A doxycycline- and light-inducible Cre recombinase mouse model for optogenetic genome editing
