research Dermoscopic features of infundibular keratinising acanthomas and follicular cysts: Description, assessment and histopathological correlation
Dermoscopy is useful for identifying skin lesions in dogs, with specific features distinguishing infundibular keratinising acanthomas from follicular cysts.
research Apoptotic Cells May Drive Cell Death in Hair Follicles During their Regression Cycle
Apoptotic cells may trigger cell death in hair follicles during their regression cycle.
research Cytokeratin 15 expression in trichoepitheliomas and a subset of basal cell carcinomas suggests they originate from hair follicle stem cells
Trichoepitheliomas and some basal cell carcinomas likely come from hair follicle stem cells.
research Proliferation and differentiation of cultured human follicular keratinocytes are not influenced by biotin
research The disrupted balance between hair follicles and sebaceous glands inHoxc13‐ablated rabbits
Rabbits lacking the Hoxc13 gene show similar hair and skin issues to humans with ECTD-9, making them good for research on this condition.

research 15-deoxy prostaglandin J2, the nonenzymatic metabolite of prostaglandin D2, induces apoptosis in keratinocytes of human hair follicles: a possible explanation for prostaglandin D2-mediated inhibition of hair growth
A substance called 15-deoxy prostaglandin J2 can cause hair follicle cells to die, which might explain how prostaglandin D2 can lead to hair loss.
research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.
