Females generally have stronger immune responses than males due to the X chromosome.
research Ferulic acid promotes hair growth via estrogen receptor alpha activation in cultured human dermal papilla cells
Ferulic acid may help hair grow by activating certain receptors in cells.
research Estrogen modulates mesenchymal-epidermal interactions in the adult nipple
Estrogen is important for keeping adult mouse nipple skin healthy by controlling certain cell signals.

KLF4 is important for maintaining skin stem cells and helps heal wounds.
research Estrogen-Dependent Ontogeny of Sex Differences in Somatostatin Neurons of the Hypothalamic Periventricular Nucleus*
Male rats have more somatostatin neurons than females due to testosterone converting to estrogen during early development.
research Mixed “Antiandrogenic” Chemicals at Low Individual Doses Produce Reproductive Tract Malformations in the Male Rat
Low doses of mixed chemicals cause permanent reproductive malformations in male rats.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Dihydrotestosterone inhibits hair growth in mice by inhibiting insulin-like growth factor-I production in dermal papillae
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) stops hair growth in mice by lowering a growth factor important for hair.
research Dietary isoflavone increases insulin-like growth factor-I production, thereby promoting hair growth in mice
Eating isoflavone can help mice grow hair by increasing a growth factor.
research Androgen- and Estrogen-Secreting Adrenal Cancers
Rare adrenal cancers that secrete androgens or estrogens have a poor prognosis and are treated primarily with surgery.
research Sulphation catalysed by the human cytosolic sulphotransferases - chemical defence or molecular terrorism?
Human enzymes can detoxify harmful substances but might also increase their cancer risk.
research Androgen Receptor Actions Modify Skin Structure and Chemical Carcinogen-induced Skin Cancer Susceptibility in Mice
Androgen receptor inactivation delays skin cancer onset and reduces incidence in mice, with gender differences in susceptibility.
