research A new in vitro culture system to produce a fully differentiated epidermis from human hair follicle outer root sheath cells
Researchers developed a method to grow skin-like tissue from hair cells.
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 The stratum corneum barrier: impaired function in relation to associated lipids and proteins
The skin's outer layer relies on lipids and proteins to protect against damage.
