Selective Elimination of NG2-Expressing Hair Follicle Stem Cells Exacerbates the Sensitization Phase of Contact Dermatitis in a Transgenic Rat Model

    Yasuhisa Tamura, Kumi Takata, Asami Eguchi, Yosky Kataoka
    Studysummary In this study, the elimination of NG2+ hair follicle stem cells during the anagen phase was associated with an aggravated sensitization phase of allergic contact dermatitis, suggesting their immunosuppressive role.
