January 1998 in “EXPERIMENTAL ANIMALS” This study found no significant differences in lectinhistochemical characteristics of the dorsal skin epidermis between hypotrichotic WBN/Ila-Ht rats and Wistar rats, except for varying lectin binding intensity.

January 1985 in “ACTA HISTOCHEMICA ET CYTOCHEMICA” This study found that epithelial components of calcifying epithelioma of Malherbe showed lectin binding and keratin staining patterns similar to normal hair follicles, with prominent Con A staining in tumor giant cells.

December 1992 in “Journal of Cutaneous Pathology” This study observed that lectin-binding patterns in skin appendage tumors reveal differences in sweat gland tumors compared to normal tissues, but pilosebaceous tumors maintained a similar lectin-binding pattern to their corresponding normal structures.
December 1990 in “PubMed” This study observed that outer and inner root sheaths of human hair follicles are predominantly characterized by different glycoconjugates, suggesting a relationship between specific lectin labeling and follicle differentiation.

September 1990 in “The Anatomical Record” This study found that distinct glycoconjugate expression patterns in human hair follicle cells suggest complex carbohydrate metabolism, revealing a unique sugar moiety in outer root sheath cells not present in other keratinocytes.
