Abnormal hair follicle morphology of the thnh/thnh mouse

immune system
• at 3 weeks of age crowded follicles and skin inflammation are found
• at 4 weeks of age pieces of hair from broken down follicles are found free in the connective tissue and seem to cause severe foreign body granulomatous inflammation within giant cells

integument
• evident by 2 weeks of age
• all four hair types are present, but there are fewer zigzags than normal
• the follicles are somewhat dilated with the deepest portions of anagen hair follicles in the subcutaneous adipose layer degenerating
• at 3 weeks of age crowded follicles and skin inflammation are found
• at 4 weeks of age pieces of hair from broken down follicles are found free in the connective tissue and seem to cause severe foreign body granulomatous inflammation within giant cells
