research Inhibition of β-Catenin Signaling in Dermal Fibroblasts Enhances Hair Follicle Regeneration During Wound Healing
Blocking β-catenin in skin cells improves hair growth during wound healing.
research The Blastema and Epimorphic Regeneration in Mammals
Mammals might fail to regenerate not because they lack the right cells, but because of how cells respond to their surroundings, and changing this environment could enhance regeneration.
research Hair Analysis in Health Assessment
Hair mineral analysis might help diagnose diseases early, but standard methods are needed.
research Sulfotransferases, Sulfatases, and Formylglycine-Generating Enzymes: A Sulfation Fascination
