Effects of 1α,25-Dihydroxy-Vitamin D3 and Calcipotriol on Organotypic Cultures of Outer Root Sheath Cells: A Potential Model to Evaluate Antipsoriatic Drugs

research Effects of 1α,25-Dihydroxy-Vitamin D3 and Calcipotriol on Organotypic Cultures of Outer Root Sheath Cells: A Potential Model to Evaluate Antipsoriatic Drugs

10 citations , October 1993 in “Archives of dermatological research”

The researchers reported that the antipsoriatic compounds 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 and calcipotriol thinned the living cell compartment in organotypic ORS cultures by accelerating the differentiation pathway rather than affecting proliferation.

research Experimental Modulation of the Differentiated Phenotype of Keratinocytes from Epidermis and Hair Follicle Outer Root Sheath and Matrix Cells

31 citations , December 1991 in “Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences”

This study found that distinct keratin profiles enabled the evaluation of epithelial differentiation in human hair follicles, with mesenchymal cells playing a critical role in epidermoid differentiation of follicular cells.

research Expression of Keratin K14 in the Epidermis and Hair Follicle: Insights Into Complex Programs of Differentiation

198 citations , November 1989 in “The Journal of Cell Biology”

This study reported that K14 expression patterns and keratin filament organization in human skin's hair follicles differ from those in the epidermis, indicating distinct differentiation programs.

research Clinical Study on the Effect of Biotin on Skin Conditions in Dogs

11 citations , January 1989 in “PubMed”

This study reported that biotin treatment improved or cured fur and skin conditions in most dogs, though the response varied by breed.

research Patterns of Expression of Trichocytic and Epithelial Cytokeratins in Mammalian Tissues: Human and Bovine Hair Follicles

248 citations , April 1988 in “Differentiation”

In this study, researchers observed that trichocytic and epithelial cytokeratins have distinct expression patterns within various human and bovine hair follicle cells, contributing to understanding hair follicle development and growth.

research Keratins of the Human Hair Follicle: Hyperproliferative Keratins Consistently Expressed in Outer Root Sheath Cells In Vivo and In Vitro

135 citations , November 1987 in “Differentiation”

This study found that cultured outer root sheath cells from human hair follicles expressed a keratin profile similar to their in vivo environment, indicating environmental influence on keratin expression.
