research 5α-Reductase, an enzyme regulating glucocorticoid action in the testis of Rhinella arenarum (Amphibia: Anura)
5α-Reductase helps regulate hormone action in toad testes, especially during breeding season.
research 362 Not just a cell marker: DPP4 modulates regeneration of hair follicles in large wounds
DPP4, a molecule in skin, helps heal large wounds and regrow hair follicles when its levels are reduced.
research Loss of Repressor Activator Protein 1 Precipitates Cardiac Aging in Mice via p53/PPARα Signaling
Loss of Rap1 protein speeds up heart aging in mice.
research Hair Color, Molt, and Testis Size in Male, Short-Tailed Weasels Treated with Melatonin
