Lactate dehydrogenase activity drives hair follicle stem cell activation

Summary

It is demonstrated that HFSCs utilize glycolytic metabolism and produce significantly more lactate than other cells in the epidermis, and small molecules that increase lactate production by stimulating Myc levels or inhibiting Mpc1 carrier activity and can topically induce the hair cycle are identified.
