research Complementary Evolution of Coding and Noncoding Sequence Underlies Mammalian Hairlessness
Both gene and non-gene areas of DNA evolved to make some mammals hairless.
research Conflicting Reports Regarding the Histopathological Features of Androgenic Alopecia: Are Biopsy Location, Hair Diameter Diversity, and Relative Hair Follicle Miniaturization Partly to Blame?
Conflicting findings in androgenic alopecia are likely due to biopsy location, hair diameter diversity, and hair follicle miniaturization.
research Quiescent Tissue Stem Cells Evade Immune Surveillance
Inactive stem cells in hair follicles and muscles can avoid detection by the immune system.
research Expression of Fox-Related Genes in the Skin Follicles of Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goat
