Inhibition of Growth of Hair Follicles by a Lectin-like Substance from Rat Skin

R Frater

Australian Journal of Biological Sciences 36(4) 411 - 418
Published: 1983

Abstract

A small molecular weight (5000--10000) substance has been isolated from rat skin by affinity chromatography on a column of acid-hydrolysed Sepharose. The substance agglutinates rabbit red blood cells, inhibits DNA synthesis in rat hair follicles, and causes the appearance of autophagic vacuoles in the epithelial cells of the lower follicle bulb.
