Trichoscopy helps tell apart Lichen planopilaris and Frontal fibrosing alopecia from other hair loss conditions.
research Seborrheic keratosis
Seborrheic keratosis is a common, harmless skin growth that can look like cancer, so it may need a biopsy.
research Merkel Cells in Hyperplastic and Neoplastic Lesions of the Skin
Merkel cell increase is specific to certain skin diseases, not general skin growth.

Trichocyte filaments have a low-density core and may include proteins for hair structure.
research Hypertrichose
research 738 Cryo-EM and molecular dynamics of TRPV3 channel in activated state reveal structural features implicated in severe itch and hyperkeratosis
The TRPV3 channel structure changes linked to severe itch and hyperkeratosis were identified using cryo-EM.
research Embryonic keratinization in vertebrates in relation to land colonization
Keratinization in embryos helped vertebrates adapt to land by forming a protective skin barrier.
research A Rare Cutaneous Hamartomatous Adnexal Tumor: Trichofolliculoma
Recognizing trichofolliculomas is important to avoid unnecessary surgery.
research Skin tumors with matrical differentiation: lessons from hair keratins, beta‐catenin and PHLDA ‐1 expression
Matrical tumors share a common growth mechanism involving the Wnt pathway and consistent PHLDA1 expression.
research The cDNA-deduced amino acid sequence for trichohyalin, a differentiation marker in the hair follicle, contains a 23 amino acid repeat.
Trichohyalin, a hair follicle protein, has a part with repeating patterns of 23 amino acids.
research Epidermis reconstructed from the outer root sheath of human hair follicle on de-epidermized dermis. Effect of retinoic acid
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.
