which, as its name implies, controls bone growth in several ways. It triggers chondrocyte proliferation in epiphyseal plates, resulting in the increasing length of long bones. GH also increases calcium retention, which enhances mineralization, and ...
Sex hormones are important for bone growth. However, the mechanism by which sex hormone receptors influence bone growth remains unclear. In orthodontic treatment, there is a need to develop an indicator of bone maturity to accurately predict the beginning and end of growth. This indicator might be...
Effect of Ascorbic Acid on Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Proliferation and Differentiation Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from bone marrow are an important tool in tissue engineering and cell-based therapies because of their multipotent ca... HH Yoon,YK Seo,KM Choi 被引量: 0发...
Traditionally, the stronger male skeleton was considered to result from higher androgen levels in men compared to women. However, the regulation of male bone growth by sex steroids appears more complex than originally anticipated. Based on clinical observations and studies in animal models, not only...
growth factor beta (TGFβ) (Olsen et al.1993). AR was also found to be expressed in immature B cells and marrow stromal cells. Androgens were shown to increase the production of functional B cells, with castrated mice accumulating B cells in the bone marrow (Viselli et al.1997). In a...
Five major enzymes are involved in the activation and deactivation of androgens in skin. Andro- gens affect several functions of human skin, such as sebaceous gland growth and differentia- tion, hair growth, epidermal barrier homeostasis and wound healing. Their effects are mediated by binding to ...
Sex hormones impact a number of aspects of immunity. As a result of the aging process, dramatic changes occur in the endocrine system, particularly in the sex hormones. Thus, it is possible that the hormonal environment may play a role in the effects of
In the adulthood, lymphangiogenesis, the growth of new lymphatic vessels, occurs in pathological condi- tions including tumor metastasis, inflammatory, and cardiovascular diseases, whereas a dysfunction of the lymphatic system leads to lymphedema, an accumulation of fluids and adipose tissue in the limb...
Besides the brain, serotonin is involved in the function of several different organ systems. It helps to regulate appetite and digestion, bone health, and sex. Serotonin is also a precursor to melatonin, a chemical involved in the body’s sleep-wake cycle. (14) ...
