research Plasma Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone in Cryptorchid Boys Treated with HCG
research Genetic Regulation of the Androgen Receptor: A Study of Testicular Feminization in the Mouse
The study concludes that a genetic mutation in TFM mice leads to reduced androgen receptor activity, affecting the body's response to male hormones.
research Genetic Basis of Skin Appendage Development
Hair, teeth, and mammary glands develop similarly at first but use different genes later.
research Enhancing Skin Regeneration in Gamma Irradiated Mice by Low-Level Laser Therapy
Low-level laser therapy speeds up skin healing and stimulates hair follicles in mice after radiation exposure.
research Investigation of the Cutaneous Penetration Behavior of Dexamethasone Loaded to Nano-Sized Lipid Particles by EPR Spectroscopy, and Confocal Raman and Laser Scanning Microscopy
Nano-sized lipid particles increase dexamethasone's skin penetration and create a reservoir in the skin layers.
research Structural Investigation on Damaged Hair Keratin Treated with α,β-Unsaturated Michael Acceptors Used as Repairing Agents
Treatments improved hair surface and scale structure but didn't increase certain bonds in the hair cortex.
research The Structure of the Amorphous Matrix of Keratins
Human hair keratin fibers have a detailed nano-scale structure that changes with different conditions.
research Steroidogenesis Inhibitors Alter But Do Not Eliminate Androgen Synthesis Mechanisms During Progression to Castration-Resistance in LNCaP Prostate Xenografts
