3 / 3 results

research The Contribution of Stem Cells to Epidermal and Hair Follicle Tumors in Dogs

18 citations , January 2013 in “Veterinary Dermatology”

This study found that K15 is a useful marker for investigating the role of stem cells in canine hair follicle tumours, while nestin is not optimal.

research Canine Hair-Follicle Keratinocytes Enriched With Bulge Cells Have the Highly Proliferative Characteristic of Stem Cells

37 citations , October 2009 in “Veterinary Dermatology”

This study identified and isolated highly proliferative canine keratinocytes in vitro, finding that follicular keratinocytes showed distinct proliferative capacity and marker expression indicative of putative epithelial stem cells.

research CD34 Glycoprotein Identifies Putative Stem Cells Located in the Isthmic Region of Canine Hair Follicles

21 citations , July 2006 in “Veterinary dermatology”

In this study, researchers reported that CD34 expression in the isthmic region of canine hair follicles suggests a potential stem cell compartment in this area.
