    GlossaryMouse Skin

    skin of a lab mouse used in biological research

    "Mouse skin" refers to the skin of a laboratory mouse, which is often used in scientific research to study various biological processes, including hair growth, wound healing, and skin diseases. Researchers use mouse skin models because they share many similarities with human skin, allowing for controlled experiments that can provide insights into human conditions such as alopecia (hair loss) and other dermatological issues.
