Alopecia areata: a multifactorial autoimmune condition [PDF]
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease that results in non-scarring hair loss, and it is clinically characterised by small patches of baldness on the scalp and/or around the body. It can later progress to total loss of scalp hair (Alopecia totalis) and/

Functional anatomy of the hair follicle: The Secondary Hair Germ [PDF]
AbstractThe secondary hair germ (SHG)—a transitory structure in the lower portion of the mouse telogen hair follicle (HF)—is directly involved in anagen induction and eventual HF regrowth. Some crucial aspects of SHG functioning and ontogenetic relations with other HF parts, however, remain undefined.

Cyclic dermal BMP signalling regulates stem cell activation during hair regeneration [PDF]
In the age of stem cell engineering it is critical to understand how stem cell activity is regulated during regeneration. Hairs are mini-organs that undergo cyclic regeneration throughout adult life1, and are an important model for organ regeneration ...

Dkk4 and Eda regulate distinctive developmental mechanisms for subtypes of mouse hair. [PDF]
The mouse hair coat comprises protective "primary" and thermo-regulatory "secondary" hairs. Primary hair formation is ectodysplasin (Eda) dependent, but it has been puzzling that Tabby (Eda(-/y)) mice still make secondary hair. We report that Dickkopf 4 (
