research Skin Deposition and Permeation of Finasteride In Vitro: Effects of Propylene Glycol, Ethanol, and Sodium Lauryl Sulfate
Propylene glycol and ethanol increase finasteride skin absorption, sodium lauryl sulfate doesn't.
research Mimicking Hair Disorders by Genetic Manipulation of Organ-Cultured Human Hair Follicles
Scientists can mimic hair disorders by altering genes in lab-grown human hair follicles, but these follicles lack some features of natural ones.
research Towards Developing an Organotypic Model for the Preclinical Study and Manipulation of Human Hair Matrix-Dermal Papilla Interactions
