research Hair Follicle Culture: A Historical Perspective
Advancements in hair follicle culture have led to better understanding and potential treatments for hair loss.
research From Genotoxic Stresses to Skin Damage: Distinct, Novel Mechanisms of Skin and Hair Damage in Chemo/Radiation Therapy
Chemotherapy and radiation therapy cause skin and hair damage by altering gene expression and signaling pathways.
research Early and Late Matrix Progenitors Form the Terminally Differentiated Cell Layers of the Hair Follicle
Early and late matrix progenitors in hair follicles create different cell layers, with early ones forming the companion layer and later ones forming the inner root sheath and hair shaft.
research Applying FACS-Based Single Cell RNA-Seq to Study Neonatal Mouse Skin
Researchers improved a method to study individual cells in newborn mouse skin and found a way to assess the severity of a skin condition in humans.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
