    TLDR Specific proteins and molecules play key roles in the development of human hair follicles.
    The study from 1994 investigated the expression patterns of tenascin, proteoglycans, and cell adhesion molecules during the morphogenesis of human hair follicles. The researchers observed dynamic changes in the expression of these molecules, which are crucial for the development and structuring of hair follicles. The findings suggested that these components played significant roles in the regulation of hair follicle formation and could potentially influence hair growth and hair loss processes. The study provided foundational insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying hair follicle development.
