    Apoptosis Coordinates With Proliferation And Differentiation During Human Hair Follicle Morphogenesis

    Chia-Wen Chang, Rong‐Kung Tsai, Hsin Su Yu
    Studysummary This study found that apoptosis, along with proliferation, plays a crucial role in shaping and extending human hair follicles by coordinating the formation and differentiation of the hair canal.
