research Non-invasive assessment of hair regeneration in androgenetic alopecia mice in vivo using two-photon and second harmonic generation imaging
New imaging techniques show testosterone delays hair growth and shrinks follicles in mice, but have limited depth for viewing.
research A Comparison of Methods of Anagen Synchronization in the Adult Rat Model of Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Clipping is the best method to prepare rats for studying hair loss from chemotherapy because it causes less skin damage and effectively gets hair to the right growth phase.
