research Sequence-Structure Based Phylogeny of GPCR Class A Rhodopsin Receptors
The research found how GPCR Class A Rhodopsin receptors are related and suggested possible substances they interact with.
research Established Risk Factors for Coronary Heart Disease Are Unrelated to Androgen-Induced Baldness in Female-to-Male Transsexuals
Baldness caused by male hormones in female-to-male transsexuals doesn't increase the risk of heart disease.
research Cyclosporin A-Induced Hair Growth in Mice Is Associated with Inhibition of Calcineurin-Dependent Activation of NFAT in Follicular Keratinocytes
Cyclosporin A helps mice grow hair by blocking a specific protein activity in skin cells.
research The Dihydrotestosterone Hypothesis of Prostate Cancer and Its Therapeutic Implications
The document suggests that targeting the hormone DHT could be a more effective treatment for prostate cancer than targeting testosterone.
