GHO Clinic - Follicular Multiplication Information Slideshow
Slide 2 - Staining the Photographs

In our studies we used several markers. Markers are compounds
used to show different characteristics of cells. The goal here was to try
and find where stem cells are located in the follicle. If we could locate
the stem cells we could see what options we had as far as regenerating new
hairs from one existing hair. This is the new technology. So we used markers
to do this. Kind of like staining something.
Besides the ones shown on this slide, we used many others.
Bcl-2: Stem cells in general have to be protected
against apoptosis. Apoptosis is programmed cell death. Therefore, stem cells
have to be positive for BCL 2, a well known anti-apoptose marker.
CK 19: CK 19 stains specific the follicular
stem cells.
Therefore, follicular stem cells have to be BCL-2 as well as
CK19 positive. Other markers on the slides are:
