Lymphatic vessels are essential for hair follicle growth and skin regeneration.
research Therapeutic strategies for treating hair loss
The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.
research GABAAreceptor modulation by neurosteroids in models of temporal lobe epilepsies
Neurosteroids change how GABA_A receptors work in the brain, which could be important for treating temporal lobe epilepsy.
research Xenobiotica-metabolizing enzymes in the skin of rat, mouse, pig, guinea pig, man, and in human skin models
Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.
research Effects of Finasteride on Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor
Finasteride reduces prostate bleeding by affecting blood vessel growth.
research Increased levels of prostaglandin-like material in the canine blood during arterial hypotension produced by hydralazine, dihydralazine and minoxidil
These drugs raise prostaglandin-like material in dog blood, possibly causing blood vessel widening.
research Comparison of rheological properties, follicular penetration, drug release, and permeation behavior of a novel topical drug delivery system and a conventional cream
The new drug delivery system releases the drug better in sebum and targets follicles more effectively than the conventional cream.
research Divergent neuroactive steroid responses to stress and ethanol in rat and mouse strains: relevance for human studies
Stress and alcohol affect brain chemicals differently in rats, mice, and humans, influenced by genetic differences.
