research Lipoatrophy and Severe Metabolic Disturbance in Mice with Fat-Specific Deletion of PPARγ
Mice lacking the PPARγ gene in their fat cells had almost no fat tissue, severe metabolic problems, and abnormal development of other fat-related tissues.
research Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone and Estrogen Differentially Regulate Prolactin and Prolactin Receptor Expression in Female Human Skin and Hair Follicles In Vitro
Oestrogen and thyrotropin-releasing hormone affect prolactin and its receptor in human skin and hair, suggesting new treatment options for related conditions.
research The Promoting Effect of Ishige Sinicola on Hair Growth
Ishige sinicola, a type of seaweed, may help hair grow by blocking a hair loss-related enzyme and boosting important cell growth.
research Organogenesis From Dissociated Cells: Generation of Mature Cycling Hair Follicles From Skin-Derived Cells
Scientists have found a way to create hair follicles from skin cells of newborn mice, which can grow and cycle naturally when injected into adult mouse skin.
research Melatonin and the Hair Follicle
