The gene SDR5A1 is found in scalp hair of both hirsute and normal individuals, but it does not explain differences in hair growth.
research Enrichment of Specific Hair Follicle-Associated Cell Populations in Plucked Hairs Offers an Opportunity to Study Gene Expression Underlying Hair Traits
Plucked hairs can be used instead of skin biopsies to study hair traits because they contain specific cells related to hair.
research The Germinative Epithelium of Sheep Vibrissae and Wool Follicles Has Extensive Proliferative Potential but Is Dependent on the Dermal Papilla
Sheep hair follicle cells can grow a lot but need the dermal papilla to do so.
research Comparison of Sensitivity Patterns of Direct Immunofluorescence on Perilesional Skin and Plucked Hair in Pemphigus Vulgaris
