research Estrogen-Dependent Development of Sex Differences in Somatostatin Neurons of the Hypothalamic Periventricular Nucleus
Male rats have more somatostatin neurons than females due to testosterone converting to estrogen during early development.
research Structures of Three Polycystic Kidney Disease-Like Domains from Clostridium Histolyticum Collagenases ColG and ColH
The study concludes that certain domains in Clostridium histolyticum enzymes are structurally unique, bind calcium to become more stable, and play distinct roles in breaking down collagen, with potential applications in medicine and drug delivery.
research Rapid Determination of Finasteride in Human Plasma by UPLC-MS/MS and Its Application to Clinical Pharmacokinetic Study
New method measures finasteride in blood quickly and accurately.
research Action of Thioglycolic Acid and L-Cysteine on Disulfide Cross-Links in Hair Fibers During Permanent Waving Treatment
Thioglycolic acid and L-cysteine change hair structure differently during perms, affecting hair strength and curling efficiency.
research 17β-Estradiol Enhances Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Production and Dihydrotestosterone Antagonizes the Enhancement via the Regulation of Adenylate Cyclase in Differentiated THP-1 Cells
Estrogen increases blood vessel growth factor production, while testosterone blocks this increase.
