The protein Par3 is crucial for healthy skin, affecting the skin barrier, cell differentiation, and stem cell maintenance.

Hair follicles are essential for skin health, aiding in hair growth, wound healing, and immune function.

The method allows for 3D tracking of hair follicle stem cells and shows they can regenerate hair for up to 180 days.

Each group of hair follicles on the scalp shares one muscle that helps control hair movement.

Skin stem cells are maintained by signals from nearby cells and vary in their ability to renew and mature.

The study found that hair follicles are above muscle connections in the scalp, which may help protect stem cell areas.

Hair follicles and deer antlers regenerate similarly through stem cells and are influenced by hormones and growth factors.

Epidermal stem cells have various roles in skin beyond just maintenance, including forming specialized structures and aiding in skin repair and regeneration.
