Melatonin receptors in hair follicles help regulate hair growth and could treat hair loss.
research Cutaneous Markers of Disorders Affecting Adult Horses
Skin and hair changes in horses can indicate serious diseases, and recognizing these signs is important for treatment and management.
research The Murine Hair Follicle Is a Melatonin Target
Melatonin directly affects mouse hair follicles and may influence hair growth.
research Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone and the Skin
CRH in the skin acts like the body's stress response system, affecting cell behavior and immune activity.
research Expression of Mu-Opiate Receptor in Human Epidermis and Keratinocytes
μ-opiate receptors in skin cells may affect skin health and healing.
research Hair Follicle Pigmentation: Mechanisms and Factors Influencing Melanin Production
