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 Epidermal keratinocyte stem cells: their maintenance and regulation
Skin stem cells are maintained by signals from nearby cells and vary in their ability to renew and mature.
research Embryonic-like regenerative phenomenon: wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis
New hair can grow from large wounds in mice, but less so as they age, involving reprogramming of skin cells and specific molecular pathways.
research Male androgenetic alopecia is due to hair follicle stem cell inactivation
Male hair loss is caused by inactive hair follicle stem cells.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cells Provide a Functional Niche for Melanocyte Stem Cells
COL17A1 is crucial for preventing hair graying and loss by supporting hair and pigment stem cells.
research Gsdma3 Mutation Causes Bulge Stem Cell Depletion and Alopecia Mediated by Skin Inflammation
A Gsdma3 mutation causes hair loss due to stem cell damage from skin inflammation.
research Niche work when you can get it: collagen XVII and the melanocyte stem cell
Collagen XVII is crucial for preventing hair and pigmentation loss by maintaining melanocyte stem cells.
research The stem cell niche
Stem cell niches are essential for tissue health and repair.
research Epithelial stem cells and implications for wound repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
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 Montagna Symposium 2015: Harnessing Stem Cells to Reveal Novel Skin Biology and Disease Treatments
The symposium showed that stem cells are key for understanding and treating skin diseases and for developing new skin models and therapies.
research In Silico Analysis of the Age-Dependent Evolution of the Transcriptome of Mouse Skin Stem Cells
