research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research The role of fibroblast growth factor receptor 2b in skin homeostasis and cancer development
Fgfr2b helps maintain healthy skin and prevent cancer.
research Cell death in the skin
Understanding how cells die in the skin is important for treating skin diseases and preventing hair loss.
research Markers to Evaluate the Quality and Self-Renewing Potential of Engineered Human Skin Substitutes In Vitro and after Transplantation
Cytokeratin 19 and cytokeratin 15 are key markers for monitoring the quality and self-renewing potential of engineered skin.
research Regulatory T cells in skin
Skin's Regulatory T cells are crucial for maintaining skin health and could be targeted to treat immune-related skin diseases and cancer.
research Markers of Epidermal Stem Cell Subpopulations in Adult Mammalian Skin
The document concludes that adult mammalian skin contains multiple stem cell populations with specific markers, important for understanding skin regeneration and related conditions.
research Wnt/β‐catenin pathway in tissue injury: roles in pathology and therapeutic opportunities for regeneration
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway helps tissue regeneration but can also cause fibrosis, and drugs that inhibit this pathway may aid in healing skin and heart tissues.
research Circadian clock-mediated control of stem cell division and differentiation: beyond night and day
The circadian clock is crucial for tissue renewal and regeneration, affecting stem cell functions and having implications for health and disease.
research GROWTH FACTORS IN HAIR ORGAN DEVELOPMENT AND THE HAIR GROWTH CYCLE
Growth factors are crucial for hair development and could help treat hair diseases.
research Building Epithelial Tissues from Skin Stem Cells
Skin stem cells help maintain skin health, grow hair, and heal wounds.
research Control of pelage hair follicle development and cycling by complex interactions between follistatin and activin
Follistatin helps hair growth and cycling, while activin prevents it.
research Adipocytes in Skin Health and Disease
Fat cells are important for healthy skin, hair growth, and healing, and changes in these cells can affect skin conditions and aging.
research Therapeutic strategy for hair regeneration: hair cycle activation, niche environment modulation, wound-induced follicle neogenesis, and stem cell engineering
The conclusion is that hair growth can be improved by activating hair cycles, changing the surrounding environment, healing wounds to create new hair follicles, and using stem cell technology.
research Regeneration of skin appendages and nerves: current status and further challenges
Progress has been made in skin and nerve regeneration, but more research is needed to improve methods and ensure safety.
research The Majority of Multipotent Epidermal Stem Cells Do Not Protect Their Genome by Asymmetrical Chromosome Segregation
Most hair follicle stem cells do not protect their DNA by dividing it unevenly.
research Dynamic Signals for Hair Follicle Development and Regeneration
Certain signals and genes play a key role in hair growth and regeneration, and understanding these could lead to new treatments for skin regeneration.
research Dissection of genetic variation and evidence for pleiotropy in male pattern baldness
Male pattern baldness is mostly inherited, involves many genes, and is linked to other traits like early puberty and strong bones.
research MicroRNA/mRNA regulatory networks in the control of skin development and regeneration
MicroRNAs are crucial for controlling skin development and healing by regulating genes.
research 25 Years of Epidermal Stem Cell Research
Research on epidermal stem cells has advanced significantly, showing promise for improved clinical therapies.
research Genetic Defects in Human Pericentrin Are Associated With Severe Insulin Resistance and Diabetes
People with PCNT mutations often develop severe insulin resistance and early-onset diabetes during childhood or adolescence.
research High proliferation and delamination during skin epidermal stratification
High proliferation and cell delamination drive early skin development, while later stages may not rely on cell division orientation.
research Inhibition of JAK-STAT Signaling with Baricitinib Reduces Inflammation and Improves Cellular Homeostasis in Progeria Cells

research The human hair follicle, a bistable organ?
Human hair follicles switch between active and resting phases unpredictably.
research Transient mitochondrial DNA double strand breaks in mice cause accelerated aging phenotypes in a ROS-dependent but p53/p21-independent manner
Damaging mitochondrial DNA in mice speeds up aging due to increased reactive oxygen species, not through the p53/p21 pathway.
research Tuning Wnt Signals for More or Fewer Hairs
Changing Wnt signaling can lead to more or less hair growth and might help treat hair loss and skin conditions.
