research Inhibition of Hair Growth by Testosterone in the Presence of Dermal Papilla Cells from the Frontal Bald Scalp of the Postpubertal Stumptailed Macaque
Testosterone can slow down hair growth when combined with certain cells from bald scalps, and this effect can be blocked by an androgen receptor blocker.
research Telogen Effluvium: Acute and Chronic Hair Loss Conditions
Telogen effluvium is a hair loss condition with acute cases resolving quickly and chronic cases potentially lasting longer, sometimes requiring treatment.
research Keratin Expression by Corneal and Limbal Stem Cells During Development
Different types of cells in the eye express specific keratins at various stages of development.
