research Cloning of a Functional Vitamin D Receptor from the Lamprey, an Ancient Vertebrate Lacking a Calcified Skeleton and Teeth
Lampreys have a functional vitamin D receptor that may help detoxify harmful substances.
research Characteristics of Flutamide Action on Prostatic and Testicular Functions in the Rat
Flutamide combined with an LHRH agonist effectively inhibits prostate growth, suggesting it could treat prostate cancer.
research Vascular Endothelial Cells: Targets for Studying the Activity of Hair Follicle Cell-Produced VEGF
The study investigated the paracrine activity of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) produced by hair dermal papilla cells (DPC) on fetal bovine aortic endothelial cells (FBAEC). The researchers exposed FBAEC to conditioned medium from DPC cultures and observed dose-dependent stimulation of FBAEC growth and migration. Additionally, radioreceptor assays demonstrated competitive VEGF binding in FBAEC, indicating that DPC-secreted VEGF could influence endothelial cell behavior, suggesting a role in hair follicle vascularization.
research Deletion of DNA Binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor Abrogates Genomic and Nongenomic Functions of Vitamin D
Removing part of the vitamin D receptor stops vitamin D from working properly.
