Mutations in the vitamin D receptor cause hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, leading to poor bone health and requiring high calcium doses for treatment.
research Pre-Receptor Regulation of the Androgen Receptor
Two enzymes regulate androgen receptor activity, affecting treatments for androgen insufficiency and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Premature Graying as a Consequence of Compromised Antioxidant Activity in Hair Bulb Melanocytes and Their Precursors
Gray hair may be caused by lower antioxidant activity in hair cells.
research Fibroblast Growth Factor-9 Enhances M2 Macrophage Differentiation and Attenuates Adverse Cardiac Remodeling in the Infarcted Diabetic Heart
Fibroblast Growth Factor-9 (FGF-9) can help improve heart function in diabetic mice after a heart attack by reducing inflammation and harmful changes to the heart's structure.
research Epidermal E-Cadherin Dependent β-Catenin Pathway Is Phytochemical Inducible and Accelerates Anagen Hair Cycling
A form of vitamin E promotes hair growth by activating a specific skin pathway.
research Effects of Lifelong Testosterone Exposure on Health and Disease Using Mendelian Randomization
