Morphogenesis, Growth Cycle and Molecular Regulation of Hair Follicles
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 As one of the main appendages of skin, hair follicles play an important role in the process of skin regeneration. Hair follicle is a tiny organ formed by the interaction between epidermis and dermis, which has complex and fine structure and periodic ...

Advances in polymeric nano-delivery systems targeting hair follicles for the treatment of acne [PDF]
Drug DeliveryAcne is a common chronic inflammatory disorder of the sebaceous gland in the hair follicle. Commonly used external medications cause skin irritation, and the transdermal capacity is weak, making it difficult to penetrate the cuticle skin barrier.

Extensive Hair Shaft Growth after Mouse Whisker Follicle Isolation, Cryopreservation and Transplantation in Nude Mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 We previously demonstrated that whole hair follicles could be cryopreserved to maintain their stem-cells differentation potential. In the present study, we demonstrated that cryopreserved mouse whisker hair follicles maintain their hair growth potential.

Induced pluripotent stem cells from human hair follicle keratinocytes as a potential source for in vitro hair follicle cloning [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Background Human hair follicles are important for the renewal of new hairs and their development. The generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from hair follicles is easy due to its accessibility and availability.
