research Skin Connective Tissue and Aging
Menopause reduces skin collagen and elasticity, and while estrogen therapy can help, its risks require careful consideration.
research Skin Aging
After menopause, women lose a lot of skin collagen, but estrogen replacement might improve skin health.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Adolescents
PCOS in teens is hard to diagnose, linked to genetics and lifestyle, and managed with weight loss and medication.
research A Practical Guide for the Study of Human and Murine Sebaceous Glands In Situ
The guide explains how to study human and mouse sebaceous glands using various staining and imaging techniques, and emphasizes the need for standardized assessment methods.
research Mechanisms of Hepatocyte Attachment to Keratin Biomaterials

research Stem Cell-Derived Motor Neurons from Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy Patients
The study suggests that motor neurons created from stem cells of patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy show signs of the disease, including changes in protein levels and cell functions.
research The Activin Binding Proteins Follistatin and Follistatin-Related Protein Are Differentially Regulated In Vitro and During Cutaneous Wound Repair
FLRG and follistatin have different roles in wound healing.
research The Effect of Menopause on the Skin and Other Connective Tissues
Menopause significantly reduces skin collagen, leading to thinner, less elastic skin, and hormone replacement may help but requires careful consideration.
research Studying the Genetic Predisposing Factors in the Pathogenesis of Acne Vulgaris
Genetics play a role in acne, but how exactly they contribute is not fully understood.
research Proline-Rich Protein-Like PRPL1 Controls Elongation of Root Hairs in Arabidopsis Thaliana
A gene in Arabidopsis thaliana, AtPRPL1, affects root hair length but not cell wall composition.
research A Small Molecule Inhibitor Partitions Two Distinct Pathways for Trafficking of Tonoplast Intrinsic Proteins in Arabidopsis
Two distinct pathways direct proteins to vacuoles in Arabidopsis, affecting root hair growth and protein targeting.
research Cell Wall-Associated Root Hair Specific 10, a Proline-Rich Receptor-Like Kinase, Is a Negative Modulator of Arabidopsis Root Hair Growth
ROOT HAIR SPECIFIC 10 (RHS10) reduces the length of root hairs in Arabidopsis plants.
research Exogenous Calreticulin Improves Diabetic Wound Healing
Applying calreticulin can speed up wound healing in diabetics.
research Chemotherapy of Psoriasis and Other Skin Disorders with Oral Retinoids
