research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research Neuroactive Gonadal Drugs for Neuroprotection in Male and Female Models of Parkinson's Disease
Some hormone-related drugs may protect brain cells in Parkinson's disease differently in men and women.
research Touch Receptors Undergo Rapid Remodeling in Healthy Skin
Touch sensitivity in mouse skin decreases during hair growth due to changes in touch receptors.
research LPA3, A Unique G Protein-Coupled Receptor For Lysophosphatidic Acid
LPA3 is crucial for embryo implantation and links LPA to prostaglandin signaling.
research Minoxidil Opens Mitochondrial KATP Channels and Confers Cardioprotection
Minoxidil protects heart and improves recovery.
