research Regeneration of Mouse Skin Melanocyte Stem Cells In Vivo and In Vitro
The research found ways to activate melanocyte stem cells for potential treatment of skin depigmentation conditions.
research Single-Cell Analysis Reveals Fibroblast Heterogeneity and Myeloid-Derived Adipocyte Progenitors in Murine Skin Wounds
The research found that different types of fibroblasts are involved in wound healing and that some blood cells can turn into fat cells during this process.
research Molecular Mechanisms of Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to DHT binding, and can be treated with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Noggin Is Required for Induction of the Hair Follicle Growth Phase in Postnatal Skin
Noggin is necessary to start the hair growth phase in skin after birth.
