Certain genes control the color of human hair by affecting pigment production.
research Local synthesis and function of neuro-estrogen and neuro-androgen: impact on the hippocampus-related cognition and neuronal plasticity
Neurosteroids like neuro-estrogen and neuro-androgen are crucial for brain function and can improve cognition and protect against aging-related decline.
research Deciphering the Mesodermal Potency of Porcine Skin-Derived Progenitors (SKP) by Microarray Analysis
Pig skin cells can turn into mesodermal cells but lose their ability to become neural cells.
research Site of beige (bg) and leaden (ln) pigment gene expression determined by recombinant embryonic skin grafts and aggregation mouse chimaeras employing sash (Wsh) homozygotes
Beige and leaden pigment genes act within melanocytes, affecting pigment patterns.
research Determination of Secondary Follicle Characteristics, Density, Activity, and Hoxc13 Expression Pattern of Hexi Cashmere Goats Breed
Hexi cashmere goats' hair growth varies by stage, with Hoxc13 linked to hair activity.
research Increased expression of the gene for the Y1 receptor of neuropeptide Y in the amygdala and paraventricular nucleus of Y1R/LacZ transgenic mice in response to restraint stress
Acute stress increases Y1 receptor gene expression in certain brain areas, but repeated stress does not.
research Overexpression of spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase under the control of mouse metallothionein I promoter in transgenic mice: evidence for a striking post-transcriptional regulation of transgene expression by a polyamine analogue
Overexpressing SSAT in mice makes them highly sensitive to polyamine analogues, causing liver damage and high mortality.
research Studies on neurosteroids XXIV. Determination of neuroactive androgens, androsterone and 5α‐androstane‐3α,17β‐diol, in rat brain and serum using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
The methods accurately measured brain androgens, showing most 5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol comes from outside the brain, while androsterone is both transported and made in the brain.
research 495 OR2AT4 activation by a synthetic odorant, stimulates dermcidin production in human hair follicle epithelium and increases follicular resistance to bacterial contamination: A novel antimicrobial folliculitis therapy?
A synthetic sandalwood odorant can boost antimicrobial production in hair follicles, making them more resistant to bacteria.
research Association of Dihydrotestosterone with Crowing Complexity Traits in Kokok Balenggek Roosters
Higher dihydrotestosterone levels reduce crowing complexity in Kokok Balenggek roosters.
research Biosynthesis of Dihydrotestosterone by a Pathway that Does Not Require Testosterone as an Intermediate in the SZ95 Sebaceous Gland Cell Line
Dihydrotestosterone can be made from dehydroepiandrosterone in skin cells without needing testosterone.
research Transgenic mice display hair loss and regrowth overexpressing mutant Hr gene
Mice with a changed Hr gene lose and regrow hair due to changes in the gene's activity.
research Basics of androgen synthesis and action
Androgens like testosterone are important hormones for both men and women, made differently in each sex and affecting the body by regulating genes and quick interactions with cell components.
research Studies on the persistence of estradiol benzoate and nortestosterone decanoate in hair of cattle following treatment with growth promoters, determined by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
Detecting steroid esters in cattle hair is inconsistent and influenced by sampling factors.
research 216 Human hair follicles can “smell”: OR2AT4-mediated hair growth regulation
Human hair follicles have a scent receptor that can influence hair growth.
research Skin transcriptome reveals the periodic changes in genes underlying cashmere (ground hair) follicle transition in Cashmere goats
The study identified key genes that align with the cashmere growth cycle in goats, which could help improve cashmere production timing.
research ZmSPL10, ZmSPL14 and ZmSPL26 act together to promote stigmatic papilla formation in maize through regulating auxin signaling and ZmWOX3A expression
ZmSPL10, ZmSPL14, and ZmSPL26 genes are essential for forming maize structures needed for pollen capture and kernel production.
research 212 DISTURBANCES OF REPRODUCTIVE FUNCTION IN WOMEN WITH PITUITARY ADENOMA
Women with pituitary adenomas often have reproductive issues, like irregular periods and trouble getting pregnant, but not always breast milk production without pregnancy.
research Effects of halogenated analogues of cortisol and progesterone upon hair growth in castrated mice.
Certain chemical changes to cortisol and progesterone can increase or decrease their ability to inhibit hair growth.
research Thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH): a new player in human hair‐growth control
TRH stimulates human hair growth and extends the hair growth phase.
research Attenuation of 5α-reductase-mediated progesterone metabolism promotes differentiation of human endometrial stromal cells for the establishment of pregnancy
Reducing 5α-reductase activity helps endometrial cells differentiate, aiding pregnancy.
research Pantolactams as androgen receptor antagonists for the topical suppression of sebum production
Pfizer found that pantolactam-based compounds can reduce sebum (skin oil) production when applied topically.
