research Cyclical Changes in Rat Vibrissa Follicles Maintained In Vitro
Rat vibrissa follicles are useful for studying hair growth cycles, especially the transition from pro-anagen to anagen.
research Murine Vibrissae Cultured in Serum-Free Medium Reinitiate Anagen
Mouse hair can regrow in a special lab setup without serum.
research Hyperpigmented Upper Eyelid: A Clue to the Diagnosis of Facial Lichen Planus Pigmentosus in a Patient with Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia
Upper eyelid hyperpigmentation can help diagnose facial lichen planus pigmentosus in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia.
research Case Series of Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia and Fibrosing Alopecia in a Pattern Distribution: Is There a Familial Correlation?
Frontal fibrosing alopecia may run in families.
research Vibrissa hair bulge houses two populations of skin epithelial stem cells distinct by their keratin profile
There are two types of stem cells in rodent hair follicles, each with different keratin proteins.
research Induction of follicle formation and hair growth by vibrissa dermal papillae implanted into rat ear wounds: vibrissa-type fibres are specified
Implanted dermal papillae can induce hair growth in rat ear wounds.
research The spectrum of hair loss in patients with mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome
Some patients with mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome experience hair loss, which may be similar to alopecia areata or linked to skin lesions, possibly due to abnormal T cells, and bexarotene can help treat it.
research Alopecia areata after HLA-identical BMT from an affected, sibling donor
Alopecia areata can be transferred through stem cell transplants from affected siblings.
research Signs of Potential Androgen Excess Across the Lifespan in a US-based Digital Cohort Study
Potential androgen excess signs vary by demographics and health, needing inclusive evaluation.
research The multipotency of adult vibrissa follicle stem cells
Adult vibrissa follicle stem cells can regenerate hair follicles, glands, and skin.
research Structure of the sinus hair follicle in the big‐clawed shrew, Sorex unguiculatus
The big-clawed shrew's sinus hair follicles are highly specialized for sensing vibrations.
research Sheep vibrissa dermal papillae induce hair follicle formation in heterotypic skin equivalents
Sheep dermal papillae can help form hair follicles in skin models.
research Study on Organ Culture of Mouse Vibrissa Follicle in Vitro
Mouse hair follicles grow best in a special medium, especially when cut and from adult mice.
research Characteristic Microstructure of Curved Human Hair
Curved human hair has different structures on each side, which might cause its shape and is similar to wool.
research Characteristic microstructure of curved human hair
Curved human hair has different structures on its convex and concave sides.
research Isolate and Culture Follicular Epithelial Cells from Rat Vibrissa Follicles by Two-Step Digestion Treatment
A new method efficiently isolates and cultures rat hair follicle cells.
research Increased Vibrissa Growth in Transgenic Mice Expressing Insulin-like Growth Factor 1
IGF-1 increases whisker growth in transgenic mice.
research Changes in fibronectin, laminin and type IV collagen distribution relate to basement membrane restructuring during the rat vibrissa follicle hair growth cycle.
The rat vibrissa follicle can quickly remodel its basement membrane during hair growth, affecting cell signaling and activity.
research Cultured dermal papilla cells of the rat vibrissa follicle. Proliferative activity, adhesion properties and reorganization of the extracellular matrix in vitro
Rat dermal papilla cells have unique properties and interact differently with their environment compared to other skin cells.
research Epithelial Growth by Rat Vibrissae Follicles In Vitro Requires Mesenchymal Contact via Native Extracellular Matrix
Epithelial cell growth in rat hair follicles needs contact with mesenchymal cells through the extracellular matrix.
research Hair Vibrissa Follicle Morphogenesis is Linked to the Expression of Retinoic Acid Receptors α and γ Genes
Retinoic acid receptors are important for hair follicle development.
research Activin B Stimulates Mouse Vibrissae Growth and Regulates Cell Proliferation and Cell Cycle Progression of Hair Matrix Cells through ERK Signaling
Activin B can boost hair growth by promoting cell proliferation and cell cycle progression.
research Localisation of members of the notch system and the differentiation of vibrissa hair follicles: Receptors, ligands, and fringe modulators
Notch-related genes play a key role in the development and cycling of hair follicles.
research Stimulation of mouse vibrissal follicle growth by recombinant human fibroblast growth factor 20
Human growth factor 20 can boost mouse whisker growth.
research The germinative epithelium of sheep vibrissae and wool follicles has extensive proliferative potential but is dependent on the dermal papilla
