“…In view of the need for basic histologic information and the presence of a totally new source of glabrous skin, a series of experiments was designed (1) to attempt for the first time to establish the histologic reaction in the skin of the hairless mouse to the long-term application of several com¬ monly used therapeutic compounds and the base petrolatum; (2) to compare these changes with those known to occur in other laboratory animals and in human skin; and (3) to establish the usefulness of the hair¬ less mouse in dermatologie research on topically applied compounds.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
