research Androgen Affects the Inhibitory Avoidance Memory by Primarily Acting on Androgen Receptor in the Brain in Adolescent Male Rats
Androgens improve memory in adolescent male rats by acting on brain receptors.
research Molecular basis of androgen action on human sexual desire
Testosterone significantly affects sexual desire in both men and women, but its impact on women is more complex and influenced by psychological factors.
research How Does Altered Metabolism Lead to Seizure Control? Partially Filling the Knowledge Gap
Altered metabolism can help control seizures by changing brain signaling and energy use, suggesting new treatments for epilepsy.
research Cinnamic acid promotes elongation of hair peg-like sprouting in hair follicle organoids via oxytocin receptor activation
Cinnamic acid may help hair grow by activating oxytocin receptors.
research Phase-specific differential regulation of mechanical allodynia in a murine model of neuropathic pain by progesterone
