research 697 Prostaglandin D2-enhanced testosterone metabolism in human keratinocytes is mediated by reactive oxygen species
Prostaglandin D2 increases testosterone levels in skin cells through reactive oxygen species, not enzymes, which could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Matriptase-2, A Novel Suppressor of Hepcidin.
Matriptase-2 helps control iron levels by suppressing hepcidin, and its deficiency can cause iron-deficiency anemia.
research Glucose metabolism regulates expression of hair-inductive genes of dermal papilla spheres via histone acetylation
Hair growth genes work better with more glucose due to changes in gene-regulating markers.
