LB890 Cyclic Hair Growth Requires Spatiotemporal Heterogeneity in Hair Follicle Signaling Network
TLDR Hair growth cycles need varied signals in space and time.
The study "LB890 Cyclic hair growth requires spatiotemporal heterogeneity in hair follicle signaling network" by C.F. Guerrero-Juarez, Q. Nie, and M. Plikus from the University of California Irvine, investigates the necessity of spatiotemporal heterogeneity in the signaling networks of hair follicles for cyclic hair growth. The research highlights that variations in signaling both in space and time are crucial for the proper regulation of hair growth cycles. This finding underscores the complexity of hair follicle biology and suggests that uniform signaling could disrupt normal hair growth patterns.
