research 186 Dissecting the role of the common neurotrophin receptor CD271 in the skin: generation and characterization of a novel mouse model with keratinocyte-specific conditional deletion
Deleting the CD271 gene in mouse skin cells leads to disorganized skin and increased hair growth, suggesting CD271 is important for skin health.
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 [Trichothiodystrophy: a morphological and biochemical study].
