Hirsutism is when women have too much hair growth, often due to a bit more androgen hormones and sensitive skin.
research Ligand-Dependent Actions of the Vitamin D Receptor Are Required for Activation of TGF-β Signaling during the Inflammatory Response to Cutaneous Injury
Vitamin D receptor is essential for proper skin healing after injury.
research Hirsutism
Hirsutism is abnormal male-pattern hair growth in females due to excess androgens.
research Ex vivo SIM-AFM measurements reveal the spatial correlation of stiffness and molecular distributions in 3D living tissue
Collagen makes skin stiff, and preservation methods greatly increase tissue stiffness.
research The RAIG Family Member, GPRC5D, Is Associated with Hard-Keratinized Structures
GPRC5D is linked to the formation of hair, nails, and certain tongue areas.
research 0870 Improving the stability of retinol: Overcoming obstacles through solid lipid particle technology
Solid Lipid Particle technology makes retinol more stable, effective, and gentle on the skin.
