research The 5α-Recluctase System and Its Inhibitors
5 alpha-reductase inhibitors, like finasteride, are used to treat conditions like prostate issues and skin disorders.
research Discovery of a novel murine keratin 6 (K6) isoform explains the absence of hair and nail defects in mice deficient for K6a and K6b
A new keratin 6 type in mice explains why some mice without certain keratin genes still have normal hair and nails.
research The Two Functional Keratin 6 Genes of Mouse Are Differentially Regulated and Evolved Independently from Their Human Orthologs
Mouse keratin 6 genes evolved independently from human ones and are regulated differently.
research A Small Deletion Hotspot in the Type II Keratin GenemK6irs1/Krt2-6gon Mouse Chromosome 15, a Candidate for Causing the Wavy Hair of the Caracul (Ca) Mutation
The mK6irs1/Krt2-6g gene likely causes wavy hair in mice.
research Anabolic effects of testosterone are preserved during inhibition of 5α-reductase
Testosterone can build muscle and bone without enlarging the prostate when a specific enzyme is blocked.
