Oral contraceptives lower testosterone levels in women, especially those with certain genetic traits, and may be linked to increased breast cancer risk.
research Genetic Fate-Mapping Reveals Surface Accumulation But Not Deep Organ Invasion of Pleural and Peritoneal Cavity Macrophages Following Injury
Cavity macrophages gather on organ surfaces but don't really invade or help repair the organs after injury.
research Hormones and Hair Growth
Different hormones affect hair growth and conditions, with some causing hair loss and others promoting it.
research Immunolocalization of a Histidine-Rich Epidermal Differentiation Protein in the Chicken Supports the Hypothesis of an Evolutionary Developmental Link Between the Embryonic Subperiderm and Feather Barbs and Barbules
A specific protein in chicken embryos links early skin layers to feather development.
research Contribution of Hair Density and Hair Diameter to the Appearance and Progression of Androgenetic Alopecia in Japanese Men
Hair thickness matters more than density for baldness in Japanese men over 25.
research Histopathology of Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy
The research found that a specific gene mutation causes fewer hair follicles and disrupted hair growth cycles, leading to thin and short hair in people with Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy.
