March 2001 in “Journal of biomechanics” This study found that anagen hairs require less force to be extracted than telogen hairs in an in vitro pig skin model, indicating different anchorage mechanisms.
3 citations
,
January 2018 in “Reproduction, Fertility and Development” This study concluded that cyproterone acetate alone produced antiandrogenic effects on the female gerbil prostate, while ethinyloestradiol alone stimulated estrogenic activity, and their combination led to prostatic lesions.
This study found that in beagles with benign prostate hyperplasia, finasteride treatment increased blood volume and decreased vessel leakiness in the prostate's parenchymal zone as shown by dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI.
April 2012 in “Annals of Neurosciences” This article discusses the development of the regenerative medicine field based on stem cells' capacity for in vitro differentiation, rather than actual organ or tissue regeneration.
