Developmental time course of estradiol, testosterone, and dihydrotestosterone levels in discrete regions of male and female rat brain.

abstract：:Humanin is a peptide that is cytoprotective against stresses in many cell types. We investigated whether a potent humanin analogue S14G-humanin (HNG) would protect against chemotherapy-induced damage to normal cells without interfering with the chemotherapy-induced suppression of cancer cells. Young adult male mice we...
