750-780 / 1000+ resultsresearch Serum-free culture of wool follicles: effects of nutrients, growth factors and hormones
Wool follicles grew fibres for 8-10 days in a serum-free culture, influenced by calcium, glucose, amino acids, and insulin.
research Androgens and ovarian function: translation from basic discovery research to clinical impact
Androgens are important for female fertility and could help in IVF treatment, but also play a role in causing PCOS.
research Clinical Presentation and Diagnosis of Multisystemic Eosinophilic Epitheliotropic Disease in a Miniature Donkey: A Case Report
The donkey had a severe disease affecting multiple organs and was euthanized.
research Alopecia areata exhibits cutaneous and systemic OX 40 activation across atopic backgrounds
Alopecia areata patients show increased inflammation and OX40 activation, suggesting a new treatment target.
research Coconut oil works as a gonadal feedback testosterone booster and increases pituitary aromatase (cyp19a1b) expression levels in fugu (Takifugu rubripes)
Coconut oil boosts testosterone but doesn't fully trigger reproductive maturity in pufferfish.
research Ovarian Stromal Hyperthecosis and Hyperandrogenemia Refractory to Hormonal Suppression
Removing both ovaries may better treat increased male hormone levels and related symptoms in postmenopausal women when hormone therapy doesn't work.
research Immunolocalization of cytokeratins in some freshly fixed bovine epithelia.
Different bovine tissues show varying types of cytokeratins.
research Histomorphological study on the teat (mammary papilla) of Indian buffalo
The Indian buffalo teat has a melanin-rich epidermis, no hair follicles, and a complex structure with muscle, blood vessels, and immune cells.
research Phase 2, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of the safety and efficacy of elagolix in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Elagolix did not effectively treat polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Characterization of transport systems for cysteine, lysine, alanine, and leucine in wool follicles of sheep
Sheep wool follicles absorb different amino acids at various rates and locations, which could affect wool growth based on diet and genetics.
research Follicular Fluid: A Powerful Tool for the Understanding and Diagnosis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Analyzing follicular fluid can help predict and improve outcomes for women with PCOS undergoing fertility treatments.
research Heterogeneity of ornithine decarboxylase expression in 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-treated mouse skin and in epidermal tumors
ODC expression in mouse skin and tumors is varied and can be inhibited by retinoic acid or cycloheximide.
research Lgr5 marks cycling, yet long-lived, hair follicle stem cells
Lgr5 is a marker for active, long-lasting stem cells in mouse hair follicles.
research Dedifferentiation of committed epithelial cells into stem cells in vivo
Certain mature cells in mouse lungs can turn back into stem cells to aid in tissue repair.
research Control of hair growth and follicle size by VEGF-mediated angiogenesis
VEGF helps hair grow and determines follicle size by increasing blood vessel growth.
research Molecular Dissection of Mesenchymal–Epithelial Interactions in the Hair Follicle
Understanding gene expression in hair follicles can reveal insights into hair growth and disorders.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research IL-17-producing γδ T cells enhance bone regeneration
IL-17-producing γδ T cells help improve bone healing.
research Calreticulin: non‐endoplasmic reticulum functions in physiology and disease
Calreticulin has roles in healing, immune response, and disease beyond its known functions in the endoplasmic reticulum.
research Regulation of somatic cell reprogramming through inducible mir-302 expression
Increasing mir-302 turns human hair cells into stem cells by changing gene regulation and demethylation.
research Live imaging of stem cell and progeny behaviour in physiological hair-follicle regeneration
Hair regeneration needs dynamic cell behavior and mesenchyme presence for stem cell activation.
research Single-cell analysis reveals fibroblast heterogeneity and myeloid-derived adipocyte progenitors in murine skin wounds
The research found that different types of fibroblasts are involved in wound healing and that some blood cells can turn into fat cells during this process.
research Functional lacrimal gland regeneration by transplantation of a bioengineered organ germ
Bioengineered lacrimal glands can restore tear production and protect eyes.
research Neurosteroidogenesis Is Required for the Physiological Response to Stress: Role of Neurosteroid-Sensitive GABAAReceptors
Neurosteroids are crucial for stress response, and targeting specific receptors may help treat certain disorders.
research Hoxc13 mutant mice lack external hair
Hoxc13 gene is essential for hair, nail, and papilla development.
research Hair follicle aging is driven by transepidermal elimination of stem cells via COL17A1 proteolysis
Hair loss and aging are caused by the breakdown of a key protein in hair stem cells.
research Intradermal adipocytes mediate fibroblast recruitment during skin wound healing
Fat cells help recruit healing cells and build skin structure during wound healing.
research Safety and efficacy of the JAK inhibitor tofacitinib citrate in patients with alopecia areata
Tofacitinib is safe and effective for severe alopecia areata, but hair loss may return 2 months after stopping treatment.
research Noggin is required for induction of the hair follicle growth phase in postnatal skin
Noggin is necessary to start the hair growth phase in skin after birth.
