An Ultrastructural Postnatal Developmental Study of the Integument of the Pig (Sus Scrofa)

This study examined prenatal and postnatal development of rat skin, observing marked changes in epidermal thickness and collagen fiber distribution as the rats aged.

This study characterizes the secondary hair follicles in the Lanyu pig, an indigenous breed sharing similarities with human vellus hair follicles, suggesting its relevance as a model for researching hair follicle-mediated skin regeneration and enhancing translation to human wound healing.

Pigs are a good model for studying human hair growth and disorders.

This study revealed key cellular dynamics and interactions during early embryonic mouse skin development, highlighting complex transitions from precursor states to diverse multilayered structures.

In this study, researchers used advanced techniques to map the early embryonic development of mouse skin, identifying diverse cell populations and uncovering complex interactions essential for skin structure, signaling, and function.
