research Clinical, ultrasound and hormonal markers of androgenicity in acne vulgaris
Acne severity is linked to higher levels of certain androgenic hormones, even when those levels are within the normal range.
research Stem cell plasticity enables hair regeneration following Lgr5+ cell loss
Hair can regrow after certain stem cells are lost because other stem cells can take over their role.
research Penetration and distribution of three lipophilic probes in vitro in human skin focusing on the hair follicle
