Using β-cyclodextrin derivatives improves the solubility and bioavailability of steroidal drugs.
research Allopregnanolone-mediated protective effects of progesterone on tributyltin-induced neuronal injury in rat hippocampal slices
Progesterone protects neurons from damage by converting to allopregnanolone, which works through GABAA receptors.
research Environmental stress but not subjective distress in children or adolescents with alopecia areata
Kids with alopecia areata may experience more stress but not necessarily feel more anxious or depressed than others.
research Differential sensitivity of epidermal cell subpopulations to β-catenin-induced ectopic hair follicle formation
Sebaceous glands can form new hair follicles when activated, but hair follicle bulges cannot.
