Autofluorescence in the Stem Cell Region of the Hair Follicle Bulge

    Bryan P Wu, Qingfeng Tao, Stephen Lyle
    Studysummary This study found that human hair follicle bulge stem cells exhibited autofluorescence, potentially due to high flavin- and NAD-related compound levels, highlighting the need to consider this when using fluorescent antibodies for studying these cells.
