research 320 Desmoglein 3-mediated mechanical transadhesion controls epithelial stem cell quiescence
Desmoglein 3 is important for keeping hair follicle stem cells inactive and maintaining their special properties.
research A highly resistant structure between cuticle and cortex of human hair
A tough membrane between the outer and inner layers of human hair protects it from damage.
research Trichotillomania associated with the "Friar Tuck sign" and nail-biting.
Trichotillomania can be identified by a "Friar Tuck sign" and nail-biting.
research Delayed epidermal permeability barrier formation and hair follicle aberrations in Inv-Cldn6 mice
Mice with too much Claudin-6 have skin barrier problems and abnormal hair growth.
