The balance between androgen receptor and p53 is crucial for sebaceous gland differentiation.
research Influence of Feed Restriction on the Wool Proteome: A Combined iTRAQ and Fiber Structural Study
Feed restriction in sheep leads to finer wool fibers but may reduce wool quality.
research Cell Death by Cornification
Cornification is how skin cells die to form the protective outer layer of skin, hair, and nails.
research An Optimized Force-Triggered Density Gradient Sedimentation Method for Isolation of Pelage Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells from Neonatal Mouse Skin
New method efficiently isolates hair growth cells from newborn mouse skin.
