January 1998 in “EXPERIMENTAL ANIMALS” This study found no significant differences in lectinhistochemical characteristics of the dorsal skin epidermis between hypotrichotic WBN/Ila-Ht rats and Wistar rats, except for varying lectin binding intensity.
December 1990 in “PubMed” This study observed that outer and inner root sheaths of human hair follicles are predominantly characterized by different glycoconjugates, suggesting a relationship between specific lectin labeling and follicle differentiation.

December 1992 in “Journal of Cutaneous Pathology” This study observed that lectin-binding patterns in skin appendage tumors reveal differences in sweat gland tumors compared to normal tissues, but pilosebaceous tumors maintained a similar lectin-binding pattern to their corresponding normal structures.

January 1992 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found distinct differences in UEA I glycoprotein binding on follicular keratinocytes between anagen and telogen hair follicles, with staining associated with follicle length and regrowth.
12 citations

September 1990 in “The Anatomical Record” This study found that distinct glycoconjugate expression patterns in human hair follicle cells suggest complex carbohydrate metabolism, revealing a unique sugar moiety in outer root sheath cells not present in other keratinocytes.
