research The development of several organs and appendages is impaired in mice lacking Sp6
Mice without the Sp6 gene have problems developing several body parts, including hair, teeth, limbs, and lungs.
research Chemotherapy of psoriasis and other skin disorders with oral retinoids
Oral retinoids are effective for treating severe skin disorders but have reversible side effects and risks for pregnant women.
research Culture of the human pilosebaceous unit, hair follicle and sebaceous gland
The article concludes that developing in vitro models for human hair structures is important for research and reducing animal testing, but there are challenges like obtaining suitable samples and the models' limitations.
research Dietary isoflavone increases insulin-like growth factor-I production, thereby promoting hair growth in mice
Eating isoflavone can help mice grow hair by increasing a growth factor.
research Applications and Risks of Nanomaterials Used in Regenerative Medicine, Delivery Systems, Theranostics, and Therapy
