March 2018 in “International Pharmacy Acta” This study concluded that niosomes could effectively serve as stable carriers for topical aminexil delivery, showing promising stability and a slow, biphasic release profile in laboratory settings.
December 2016 in “Chin J Anat Clin” This study successfully improved methods for isolating, culturing, and purifying rat hair follicle stem cells, demonstrating their high purity, strong proliferation, and potential for adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation in vitro, which could support advancements in tissue engineering.
May 2016 in “Research opinions in animal & veterinary sciences” In this study, aspartame consumption during gestation in rats was associated with significant histological changes and increased apoptosis in the skin of their neonatal pups.
April 2016 in “The FASEB Journal” This study found that blocking androgen receptors in male rats during the perinatal period led to permanently increased estrogen and ER-a expression in the hypothalamus, affecting sexual preference in adulthood.
April 2015 in “The FASEB Journal” In this study, perinatal androgen deprivation in male rats led to elevated estrogen levels and a lack of sexual motivation towards gonadally-intact female rats.
April 2015 in “The FASEB Journal” This study observed that perinatal androgen deprivation in male rats increased serum estrogen levels, which was associated with improved spatial working memory and increased body weight.
January 2015 in “Journal of Nutrition and Health” This study found that fish oil supplementation in male Wistar albino rats helped maintain hair shaft structure and improved amino acid composition, while reducing harmful protein compounds associated with diabetes and hypercholesterolemia.
January 2013 in “Zhongguo bingli shengli zazhi” In this rat study, Coriaria sinica Maxim extract significantly improved burn wound healing by enhancing epithelial growth and promoting hair regrowth, possibly through early-stage protein and mRNA expression changes.
This study examined prenatal and postnatal development of rat skin, observing marked changes in epidermal thickness and collagen fiber distribution as the rats aged.
December 2011 in “The Egyptian Journal of Histology” This study found that high-fructose intake in rats led to significant kidney histological changes, such as podocyte damage and inflammatory responses, which persisted even after returning to a standard diet.
April 2011 in “The FASEB Journal” This research found that prolonged doses of Amlodipine at 5mg/kg BW or higher impaired fertility indicators in adult male rats, affecting sperm morphology, count, and motility.
January 2011 in “Industrial health and Occupational Diseases” In this study, resveratrol exposure during gestation did not show significant adverse effects on the development of F1 male rats.
September 2009 in “European journal of paediatric neurology” Biotin supplements did not significantly reduce hair loss in rats on valproic acid.
