research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability during Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Mice lacking a key DNA methylation enzyme in skin cells have a lower chance of activating stem cells necessary for hair growth, leading to progressive hair loss.
research Histological evaluation of hair keratin based templates in mice
Keratin sponges are as biocompatible as collagen, but keratin gels are slightly less so.
research Monilethrix unveiled by initial androgenetic alopecia.
An 11-year-old girl with hair thinning was diagnosed with monilethrix and early androgenetic alopecia.
