research An optimized force-triggered density gradient sedimentation method for isolation of pelage follicle dermal papilla cells from neonatal mouse skin
New method efficiently isolates hair growth cells from newborn mouse skin.
research 1412 “Telescope model” for coordinated organ morphogenesis and stem cell formation
Developing hair follicles form from ring-shaped patterns, with future stem cells originating from the outer ring, not the upper layers, as previously thought.
research Locations of synthesis of hair structural proteins in human anagen follicles
Hair structural proteins are synthesized sequentially in specific cells, offering a new way to study hair proteins and defects.

research LB1076 Using the frog embryonic epidermis as a model to study desmosome function during development
Frog skin cells need the protein desmoplakin for proper development and cell layer formation.
research Mapping cell dynamics in human ex vivo hair follicles suggests pulling mechanism of hair growth
Hair growth may involve a pulling force from the outer root sheath.
research Dendritic cell migrations involving the pilosebaceous unit in the development of murine skin
Dendritic cells help regulate skin development and hair growth in mice.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Keratin 79 identifies a novel population of migratory epithelial cells that initiates hair canal morphogenesis and regeneration.
Keratin 79 cells help form and regenerate hair canals.
research A two-phase model of skin epidermal stratification: lessons from centrosomes
Removing centrosomes from skin cells leads to thinner skin and stops hair growth, but does not greatly affect skin cell differentiation.
research Watching hair grow
Hair grows when stem cell offspring in the follicle base proliferate, influenced by the dermal papilla.
research Generalized Hair Casts Due to Traction
Hair casts can be treated with physical removal and special shampoos.
