research Eyebrow reconstruction in dormant keratosis pilaris atrophicans
Eyebrow reconstruction using hair follicle grafts was successful in a man with a benign hereditary disorder affecting his eyebrows.
research 707 Guiding skin organoid generation via extracellular matrix cues and spatially controlled morphogen gradients
Scientists improved how to make skin-like structures from stem cells using special gels and a device that controls growth signals, leading to better hair and skin features.
research Androgen receptors are only present in mesenchyme-derived dermal papilla cells of red deer (Cervus elaphus) neck follicles when raised androgens induce a mane in the breeding season
Red deer only have androgen receptors in neck hair cells for mane growth during breeding season.
