research The prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome in a community sample of Iranian population: Iranian PCOS prevalence study
About 7% to 15% of Iranian women have polycystic ovary syndrome, depending on the criteria used to diagnose it.
research A Guide to Studying Human Hair Follicle Cycling In Vivo
The document provides a method to classify human hair growth stages using a model with human scalp on mice, aiming to standardize hair research.
research Epithelial stem cells and implications for wound repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
research Transfollicular drug delivery—Is it a reality?
Hair follicles may soon be used more for targeted and systemic drug delivery.
