LGR5 is a conserved marker of hair follicle stem cells in multiple species and is present early and throughout follicle morphogenesis
1 Jun 2022
Abstract excerpt
Hair follicle stem cells are key for driving growth and homeostasis of the hair follicle niche, have remarkable regenerative capacity throughout hair cycling, and display fate plasticity during cutaneous wound healing. Due to the need for a transgenic reporter, essentially all observations related to LGR5-expressing hair follicle stem cells have been generated using transgenic mice, which have significant...
