research Neurotrophins, nociceptors, and pain
Neurotrophins, especially NGF, are crucial for pain development and management.
research Acupuncture in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Potential and Challenge
Acupuncture may improve reproductive and metabolic functions in PCOS without negative side effects, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.
research Cardiac and brainstem neuroinflammatory pathways account for androgenic incitement of cardiovascular and autonomic manifestations in endotoxic male rats
Testosterone plays a big role in heart and nervous system damage caused by inflammation in male rats, suggesting that blocking testosterone production could help manage this condition.
research Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Thyroid Axis Hormones Stimulate Mitochondrial Function and Biogenesis in Human Hair Follicles
HPT axis hormones boost mitochondrial function and growth in hair follicles, potentially aiding hair health.
research The Plastic and Functional Changes in Hippocampal Neurons During Pregnancy, Delivery and Postpartum are Reversed by Offspring Deprivation
