Spatial Distribution and Functional Impact of Human Scalp Hair Follicle Microbiota

    Marta B. Lousada, Janin Edelkamp, Tim Lachnit … Ralf Paus
    Studysummary In this study, researchers found that the human hair follicle microbiota vary by anatomical compartment and donor age, with specific microbes like S. epidermidis potentially influencing hair follicle functions, which suggests new avenues for therapeutic targeting.
