research Keratin 17 modulates hair follicle cycling in a TNFα-dependent fashion
Keratin 17 is crucial for normal hair growth by regulating hair cycle transitions with TNFα.
research Regulation of Keratin Gene Expression in Hair Follicle Differentiationa
Keratin gene regulation is similar across mammals, affecting hair follicle differentiation.
research Melanocyte Subpopulation Turnover During the Human Hair Cycle: An Immunohistochemical Study
Melanocyte activity in hair follicles is linked to the hair growth cycle, being active in growth phases and inactive in rest phases.
research Effects of Intradermally Injected and Topically Applied Mouse Epidermal Growth Factor on Wool Growth, Skin and Wool Follicles of Merino Sheep
Mouse epidermal growth factor injections in sheep affected wool growth and skin, but saline did not.
research Organ culture of human hair follicles in serum-free medium
Hair follicles can grow and increase DNA synthesis in a serum-free environment, and minoxidil sulphate boosts this process.

Tenascin-C and tenascin-W help control stem cell movement and growth in whisker follicles.
research Alopecia Areata: A Review of the Genetic Variants and Immunodeficiency Disorders Associated with Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune hair loss condition linked to genetic factors.
research Sex hormones and antiandrogens influence in vitro growth of dermal papilla cells and outer root sheath keratinocytes of human hair follicles
Sex hormones and antiandrogens can either stimulate or inhibit human hair follicle cell growth depending on the dose.
research Ectopic sebaceous gland: a developmental anomaly
A 21-year-old had a rare developmental anomaly with a misplaced sebaceous gland in a hair follicle.
