Salmon nasal cartilage proteoglycan stimulates hair growth

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2023
ABSTRACT Hair loss is a commonly encountered problem. In this study, hair growth was enhanced by daily oral ingestion of salmon nasal cartilage proteoglycan (PG) in mice. Proteoglycan stimulated vesicular endothelial growth factor production in human follicle dermal papilla cells through insulin growth factor-1 receptor signaling ...

Deformation of nasal septal cartilage during mastication [PDF]

Journal of Morphology, 2009
AbstractThe cartilaginous nasal septum plays a major role in structural integrity and growth of the face, but its internal location has made physiologic study difficult. By surgically implanting transducers in 10 miniature pigs (Sus scrofa), we recorded in vivo strains generated in the nasal septum during mastication and masseter stimulation. The goals
