research Atherogenesis: Estrogen Induction of Polysialylated NCAM Blocks Monocyte Capture by Vascular Endothelial Cells
Estrogen helps prevent artery plaque by stopping monocyte capture in blood vessels.
research In Vitro Main Pathways of Steroid Action in Cultured Hair Follicle Cells: Vascular Approach
Steroids, particularly estrogens and 5α-reductase inhibitors, affect blood vessel-related hair growth processes in hair follicle cells.
research Steroid Hormones: Overview and Medical Applications
Steroid hormones are crucial for body functions and have various medical uses, but their misuse can lead to dependence.
research Failure of Topical Estrogen Receptor Agonists and Antagonists to Alter Murine Hair Follicle Cycling
Topical estrogen treatments did not change hair growth in certain mouse strains, questioning previous findings on their role in hair growth control.
research Bisphenol-A Antagonizes the Rapidly Modulating Effect of Dihydrotestosterone on Spinogenesis and Long-Term Potentiation of Hippocampal Neurons
Bisphenol-A (BPA) increases connections between brain cells and boosts their activity, but it blocks the effects of a male hormone on brain cell plasticity.
research An Estrogen Receptor Pathway Regulates the Telogen-Anagen Hair Follicle Transition and Influences Epidermal Cell Proliferation
The estrogen receptor pathway controls hair growth cycles and affects skin cell growth.
research Therapeutic Androgen Receptor Ligands
Androgens and SARMs play a role in body mass, frailty, skin health, and hair growth, and are used in treating prostate cancer, acne, and hair loss, with potential for new uses and improved versions in the future.
research Estrogen-Dependent Development of Sex Differences in Somatostatin Neurons of the Hypothalamic Periventricular Nucleus
