Other findings include: frizzy mutation in mice isn't related to Fgfr2, C/EBPx marks preadipocytes, Cyclosporin A speeds up hair growth in mice, blocking plasmin and metalloproteinases hinders healing, hyperbaric oxygen helps ischemic wound healing, amniotic membranes heal wounds better than polyurethane foam, rhVEGF165 from a fibrin matrix improves tissue flap viability and induces VEGF-R2 expression, and bFGF enhances wound healing and reduces scarring in rabbits.
research Bioavailability of Albumin-Bound Testosterone
Spironolactone treatment increases the amount of testosterone available in the body.
research French Administrative Health Care Database (SNDS): The Value of Its Enrichment
Enriching the French health care database with external data greatly improved its usefulness.
research Defining Metabolic Flexibility in Hair Follicle Stem Cell Induced Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Blocking both main energy pathways can stop hair follicle stem cell-induced skin cancer growth.

research What Should It Take to Describe a Substance or Product as 'Sperm-Safe'?
Products should be called 'sperm-safe' only after thorough, well-designed tests.
research Mechanism of Action of Minoxidil Sulfate-Induced Vasodilation: A Role for Increased Potassium Permeability
Minoxidil sulfate relaxes muscle by increasing potassium flow, making it a unique muscle relaxer.
research Congenital Ptosis: Long-Term Outcome of Frontalis Suspension Using Autogenous Temporal Fascia or Fascia Lata in Children
The surgery for severe congenital ptosis in children is safe and effective, with good long-term results.
research Fetal Wound Healing Using a Genetically Modified Murine Model: The Contribution of P-Selectin
P-selectin is not the only factor that prevents scarring in fetal wound healing in mice.
research The Functional Organization of Cutaneous Low-Threshold Mechanosensory Neurons
Different hair follicles in the skin are innervated by unique combinations of mechanosensory neurons, crucial for touch sensation.
research Women's Skin Throughout Lifetime: Hormonal Impact and Disorders
Hormonal status significantly affects women's skin health throughout their lives.
research Scratching the Surface of Skin Development

research Hair Color, Molt, and Testis Size in Male Short-Tailed Weasels Treated with Melatonin
Melatonin causes weasels to grow white fur and become reproductively inactive.
research The Potential of Circulating Endothelial Cells as Prognostic Biomarkers in Prostate Cancer
CEC levels may be a useful marker for predicting prostate cancer progression.
research Marangoni Effect in the Water Wetting of Surfactant Coated Human Hair Fibers
The study found that the Marangoni effect causes the uneven wetting of surfactant-coated hair due to the surfactant moving into the water.
research Female Hirsutism: Pathophysiological Considerations and Therapeutic Implications
Excessive hair growth in women often has no known cause and is not linked to race or other hormonal symptoms.
research Case Report: Extensive Digital Gangrene as a Primary Manifestation of Late-Onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
