research More than one way to skin . . .
Skin stem cells help repair damage and maintain healthy skin.
research Particulate matter 2.5 damages skin cells by inducing oxidative stress, subcellular organelle dysfunction, and apoptosis
Tiny pollution particles called PM2.5 can harm skin cells by causing stress, damage to cell parts, and cell death.
research The prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome in a community sample of Iranian population: Iranian PCOS prevalence study
About 7% to 15% of Iranian women have polycystic ovary syndrome, depending on the criteria used to diagnose it.
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.
research Androgens and hair growth
Androgens can both increase and decrease hair growth in different parts of the body.
research Bioengineering skin using mechanisms of regeneration and repair
