research Witnessed trauma exposure induces fear in mice through a reduction in endogenous neurosteroid synthesis
Seeing trauma causes fear in mice by lowering their natural fear-reducing hormones.
research Significant Effects of Mild Endogenous Hormonal Changes in Humans: Considerations for Low-Dose Testing
Small hormonal imbalances can cause significant health problems, so more sensitive testing for hormone-disrupting chemicals is needed.
research Intensive stress impedes hair follicle growth through triggering cell cycle arrest of hair follicle stem cells
Intense stress stops hair growth by halting hair follicle stem cell activity.
research Approaching fertility in congenital adrenal hyperplasia: exploring P30L mutation-induced 21-hydroxylase deficiency with a presentation between non-classical and simple virilizing phenotypes. A case report
A woman with a specific mutation causing adrenal gland issues faced fertility problems, but careful hormone therapy helped her manage it successfully.
