Hair follicles modulate skin barrier function

2024-04-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Our skin provides a protective barrier that shields us from our environment. Barrier function is typically associated with interfollicular epidermis; however, whether hair follicles influence this process remains unclear. Here, we utilize a potent genetic tool to probe barrier function by conditionally ablating a quintessential epidermal barrier gene, Abca12 , which is mutated in the most severe...
