Certain drugs can reduce bladder muscle contractions, potentially helping treat bladder diseases.
research Stem Cells Tightly Regulate Dead Cell Clearance to Maintain Tissue Fitness
Stem cells help remove dead cells to keep tissues healthy by balancing cell replacement and clearance.
research Exosomes: Breakthrough in Regenerative Medicine and a Way to Improve Quality of Life
Exosomes can help repair and heal tissues, improving health and vitality.
research Kennedy's Disease and Partial Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome: Report of 4 Cases and Literature Review
The conclusion is that adult males with muscle weakness and hormonal imbalances should be tested for Kennedy's disease.
research Molecular Principles of Hair Follicle Induction and Morphogenesis
Hair follicle development is controlled by interactions between skin tissues and specific molecular signals.
research Testosterone Therapy for Transgender Men: Effects and Safety
Testosterone therapy in transgender men has both desired effects like increased muscle mass and potential health risks such as higher cardiovascular risk.
research Mechanical Forces Across Compartments Coordinate Cell Shape and Fate Transitions to Generate Tissue Architecture
Mechanical forces are crucial for shaping cells and forming tissues during development.
research Correlation of Symptoms to Serum Vitamin D Levels
Low vitamin D levels are linked to symptoms like muscle cramps, fatigue, and hair loss.
research Adipose-Derived Stem/Stromal Cells in Regenerative Medicine
Fat tissue stem cells show promise for repairing different body tissues and are being tested in clinical trials.

research Hardwiring Stem Cell Communication Through Tissue Structure
The conclusion is that tissue structure is key for stem cell communication and maintaining healthy tissues.
research In Vitro and In Vivo Structure-Activity Relationships of Novel Androgen Receptor Ligands with Multiple Substituents in the B-Ring
Certain changes to the B-ring of androgen receptor ligands can increase their effectiveness for potential treatments of muscle and bone conditions.
research Kojyl Cinnamate Ester Derivatives Increase Adiponectin Expression and Stimulate Adiponectin-Induced Hair Growth Factors in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Kojyl cinnamate ester derivatives can promote hair growth by increasing adiponectin production in fat tissues.
research This Week in JAMA: March 7, 2012 Issue Highlights
Early surgery reduces seizure risk in drug-resistant epilepsy; testosterone to DHT conversion doesn't affect muscle anabolism; veterans with PTSD likely to have riskier opioid use; bevacizumab helps in hereditary bleeding disorder.
research Neural Crest Cells Give Rise to Non-Myogenic Mesenchymal Tissue in the Adult Murid Ear Pinna
Certain cells in the adult mouse ear come from cranial neural crest cells, but muscle and hair cells do not.
research Extraskeletal Actions of Vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway in Tissue Injury: Roles in Pathology and Therapeutic Opportunities for Regeneration
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway helps tissue regeneration but can also cause fibrosis, and drugs that inhibit this pathway may aid in healing skin and heart tissues.
research Early Onset and Novel Features in a Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy Patient with a 68 CAG Repeat

research Hair Keratin KRT81 Is Expressed in Normal and Breast Cancer Cells and Contributes to Their Invasiveness
The hair keratin gene KRT81 is found in both normal and breast cancer cells and helps them invade surrounding tissues.
research The Pathophysiology of the Male Aging Face and Body
Aging in men is influenced by genetics and lifestyle, leading to muscle loss, bone issues, and skin damage.
research The Use of Neurotoxins in the Male Face
Men need higher doses of botox than women and a different approach for facial aesthetics due to their unique facial features and muscle mass.
research Crystallization and Preliminary X-Ray Analysis of the Human Androgen Receptor Ligand-Binding Domain with a Coactivator-Like Peptide and Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators
Scientists successfully created and analyzed the structure of a part of the human androgen receptor with specific modulators and a peptide to understand how it binds differently in various tissues.
