research Comparison of two in vitro models for the analysis of follicular penetration and its prevention by barrier emulsions
Pig ear skin is better than human skin for testing how well barrier creams block allergens from entering hair follicles.
research Photoepilation: a potential threat to wound healing in a mouse
Photoepilation may disrupt normal wound healing and increase the risk of scars.

research 918 Skin morphogenesis by coupling biochemical-bioelectric signals: Calcium oscillations coordinate dermal cell movement by epidermis-derived SHH signaling during feather bud orientation
Calcium signals and SHH guide the direction of feather growth in chicken skin.
research Loss of Keratin K2 Expression Causes Aberrant Aggregation of K10, Hyperkeratosis, and Inflammation
Loss of keratin K2 causes skin problems and inflammation.
research In vivo effects of epidermal growth factor on epidermal pattern formation and hair follicle initiation in the marsupial bandicoot Isoodon macrourus
Epidermal growth factor disrupts hair and gland formation in bandicoots.
research Scanning electron microscopic features of the ovine interdigital sinus
The ovine interdigital sinus has a complex structure with three layers and various skin-like features.
research Clinical Snippets
Melanoma risk tools need improvement, a gene mutation causes a hair disorder that might be treated by managing cell stress, a potential therapy for a skin-ear disorder involves blocking cell channels, skin wrinkling may indicate lung aging regardless of smoking, and oxidative stress might contribute to common baldness.

Mutations in Far2 mice cause hair loss due to sebaceous gland issues.
research The targeted overexpression of a Claudin mutant in the epidermis of transgenic mice elicits striking epidermal and hair follicle abnormalities
research Are fingernails a key to unlocking the puzzle of mammalian limb regeneration?
Nail stem cells and Wnt signaling are important for fingertip regeneration but not sufficient for regenerating more complex limb structures.
