A 3-month stay in space causes skin thinning, disrupts hair growth, and changes muscle-related genes in mice.
research Autotaxin-LPA Signaling Contributes to Obesity-Induced Insulin Resistance in Muscle and Impairs Mitochondrial Metabolism
Blocking the ATX-LPA pathway may improve insulin sensitivity and mitochondrial function in obesity.
research Long-Term Oral Administration of 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Attenuates Erectile Function by Inhibiting Autophagy and Promoting Apoptosis of Smooth Muscle Cells in Corpus Cavernosum of Aged Rats
Long-term use of a certain medication can worsen erectile function in aged rats by damaging penile muscle cells.
research Beyond Goosebumps: Does the Arrector Pili Muscle Have a Role in Hair Loss?
The arrector pili muscle might play a role in hair loss and needs more research to understand its impact.
research Comparative Transcriptomic Analysis of Dermal Wound Healing Reveals De Novo Skeletal Muscle Regeneration in Acomys Cahirinus

research Acquired Smooth Muscle Hamartoma With Sebaceous Component
The patient has a rare skin condition that shows features of two known disorders.
research Androgen-Induced Norepinephrine Release in Male Accessory Sex Organ Smooth Muscle Growth and Differentiation
Androgens increase norepinephrine release, promoting smooth muscle growth in male sex organs, which may contribute to benign prostatic hypertrophy.
research Hair Follicle Associated Pluripotent (HAP) Stem Cells from Young Mice Have the Greatest Potential to Differentiate to Cardiac Muscle Cells
Young mice's hair follicle stem cells are best for turning into heart muscle cells.
research Brain And Muscle Arnt-Like Protein-1 (BMAL1) Controls Circadian Cell Proliferation And Susceptibility To UVB-Induced DNA Damage In The Epidermis
