research Eccrine sweat glands associate with the human hair follicle within a defined compartment of dermal white adipose tissue
Sweat glands and hair follicles are structurally connected within a specific layer of skin fat.
research Epidermal Stem Cells Are Defined by Global Histone Modifications that Are Altered by Myc-Induced Differentiation
Myc changes chromatin in stem cells, causing them to leave their niche.
research Cutaneous stem cells: something new and something borrowed
Epidermal stem cells maintain skin health through specific niches and signaling pathways.
research Betacellulin Regulates Hair Follicle Development and Hair Cycle Induction and Enhances Angiogenesis in Wounded Skin
Betacellulin helps blood vessel growth in wounds but delays hair growth.
research Lgr6+ stem cells and their progeny in mouse epidermis under regimens of exogenous skin carcinogenesis, and their absence in ensuing skin tumors
UV exposure reduces Lgr6+ stem cells in mouse skin and they don't significantly contribute to skin cancer development.
research Onychoblastoma – Hamartoma of the Nail Unit: A New Entity?
A new benign nail tumor called onychoblastoma was identified.
research Distinct mechanisms for sebaceous gland self-renewal and regeneration provide durability in response to injury
Sebaceous glands can regenerate after injury using stem cells from hair follicles.
research Genetics of thyroid lesions updated
RET mutation is important in familial medullary thyroid carcinoma, and BRAF mutation in papillary thyroid carcinoma is linked to more aggressive cancer and higher death rates.
research Cytokeratin 19 expression in usual cutaneous carcinomas
CK 19 expression is higher in more severe skin cancers.
research Hedgehog signaling reprograms hair follicle niche fibroblasts to a hyper-activated state
Overactivating Hedgehog signaling makes hair follicle cells in mice grow hair faster and create more follicles.
research Proteomics Characterization of Primary Human Oral Epithelial Cells Using a Novel Culture Technique for Use in Tissue Regeneration
ePUKs could be valuable for regenerative medicine due to their wound healing abilities.
research Defining compartmentalized stem and progenitor populations with distinct cell division frequency in the ocular surface epithelium
Stem and progenitor cells in the eye have different division rates and locations, affecting how they respond to injury.
research Hybrid Eccrine Gland and Hair Follicle Hamartoma
A rare skin growth in a baby was successfully removed without coming back.
research A Mouse Model for Conditional Expression of Activated β-Catenin in Epidermal Keratinocytes
Activated β-catenin affects hair growth and skin thickness, and changes are reversible.
research Assessment of replication rates of human keratinocytes in engineered skin substitutes grafted to athymic mice
Regulating keratinocyte growth in engineered skin can improve wound healing.
research Differentiation capacity of stromal fibroblast-like cells from human bone marrow, adipose tissue, hair follicle dermal papilla and derma
research Activation of the Notch pathway in the hair cortex leads to aberrant differentiation of the adjacent hair-shaft layers
Notch pathway activation causes abnormal hair layer development.
research Keratinocytes of the Upper Epidermis and Isthmus of Hair Follicles Express Hemoglobin mRNA and Protein
Skin cells and certain hair follicle areas produce hemoglobin, which may help protect against oxidative stress like UV damage.
research Human hair follicle cells of outer root sheath maintain their genuine keratin expression in vitro
research Androgen‐inducible TGF‐β1 from balding dermal papilla cells inhibits epithelial cell growth: a clue to understanding paradoxical effects of androgen on human hair growth
Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.
research M-CSF-stimulated myeloid cells can convert into epithelial cells to participate in re-epithelialization and hair follicle regeneration during skin wound healing
Myeloid cells can turn into skin and hair cells to help heal wounds.
research 576 A preliminary study of melanogenic markers in the differentiation of the human hair follicle melanin unit
The study found markers indicating that cells responsible for hair color are differentiating in specific areas of the hair follicle.
research The multipotency of adult vibrissa follicle stem cells
Adult vibrissa follicle stem cells can regenerate hair follicles, glands, and skin.
research Localization of sex steroid receptors in human skin.
Sex steroid receptors are found in specific skin cells, affecting skin and hair functions.
research Multifocal Malignant Proliferating Trichilemmal Tumour: A Diagnostic Imitator Beyond the Scalp

research Glycoconjugate expression of cells of human anagen hair follicles during keratinization
Human anagen hair follicles have unique carbohydrate patterns during keratinization.
research The combination of hair follicle-specific marker LHX2 and co-expressed marker can distinguish between sweat gland placodes and hair placodes in rat
LHX2, with other markers, can identify hair placodes in rats.
