research Lineage Analysis of Epidermal Stem Cells 57 citations , January 2014 in “Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine” Skin stem cells maintain and repair the outer layer of skin, with some types being essential for healing wounds.
research Lineage Tracing of Hair Follicle Stem Cells in Epidermal Whole Mounts 11 citations , January 2013 in “Methods in molecular biology” The method allows for 3D tracking of hair follicle stem cells and shows they can regenerate hair for up to 180 days.
