research Order from disorder: Self-organization in mammalian hair patterning
Hair patterns in mice are controlled by both a global system dependent on Fz6 and a local self-organizing system.
research Epidermal patterning and induction of different hair types during mouse embryonic development
Different body areas in mice produce different hair types due to interactions between skin layers.
research The Effects of Negative Pressure Therapy on Hair Growth of Mouse Models
Negative pressure therapy increases hair growth in mice.
research Tissue Mechanics in Haired Murine Skin: Potential Implications for Skin Aging
Older mice have stiffer skin with less elasticity due to changes in collagen and skin structure, affecting aging and hair loss.
research Directed Expression of Keratin 16 to the Progenitor Basal Cells of Transgenic Mouse Skin Delays Skin Maturation
Keratin 16 delays skin maturation and affects skin and hair development in mice.
