30 / 1000+ results research Autotaxin–lysophosphatidic acid– LPA 3 signaling at the embryo‐epithelial boundary controls decidualization pathways
LPA3 signaling in the uterus is crucial for placental formation and fetal development.
research An Electron Microscopy Study of Keratin Degradation by the Fungus Microsporum gypseum in vitro
Microsporum gypseum fungus breaks down keratin in hair by digesting it enzymatically, starting with less keratinized parts.
research Switching roles: the functional plasticity of adult tissue stem cells
Adult tissue stem cells can adapt and switch roles to help repair and maintain the body.
research Role of boundary conditions in an experimental model of epithelial wound healing
Mast cells and VEGF contribute to post-surgery adhesions, and blocking VEGF can reduce these adhesions; also, certain factors affect wound healing and fetal skin heals differently with age.
research Microenvironmental reprogramming of thymic epithelial cells to skin multipotent stem cells
Scientists turned rat thymus cells into stem cells that can help repair skin and hair.
research Determination of Solute Diffusion Properties in Artificial Sebum
Diffusion in artificial sebum is mainly influenced by molecular size and is much faster than in skin lipids.
research Cross-linked features of mouse pelage hair resistant to detergent extraction
Some mutant mice have hair with abnormal cross-linking, mainly in the cuticle, not affecting other hair parts.
research Investigations on the penetration of hydrolyzed wheat proteins into human hair by confocal laser-scanning fluorescence microscopy
Hydrolyzed wheat proteins penetrate all hair types effectively.
research Cell wall-associated ROOT HAIR SPECIFIC 10, a proline-rich receptor-like kinase, is a negative modulator of Arabidopsis root hair growth
ROOT HAIR SPECIFIC 10 (RHS10) reduces the length of root hairs in Arabidopsis plants.
research Generating detailed intercellular communication patterns in psoriasis at the single-cell level using social networking, pattern recognition, and manifold learning methods to optimize treatment strategies
New insights into cell communication in psoriasis suggest innovative drug treatments.
research Identification of Stem Cell Populations in Sweat Glands and Ducts Reveals Roles in Homeostasis and Wound Repair
The study found that sweat glands contain different types of stem cells that help with healing and maintaining healthy skin.
research Identifying the Target Cells and Mechanisms of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection
Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.
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 Molecular basis of hair cell loss
The document concludes that there are no effective clinical treatments for hearing loss due to hair cell damage, but research is ongoing.
research Current Understanding of the Pathways Involved in Adult Stem and Progenitor Cell Migration for Tissue Homeostasis and Repair
The document concludes that understanding how adult stem and progenitor cells move is crucial for tissue repair and developing cell therapies.
research A computational modelling framework to quantify the effects of passaging cell lines
Cell characteristics change with passage numbers, affecting experiment results.
research Planar cell polarity effector gene Intu regulates cell fate-specific differentiation of keratinocytes through the primary cilia
Intu gene is crucial for hair follicle formation by helping keratinocytes differentiate through primary cilia.
research A Fibrous Hybrid Patch Couples Cell-Derived Matrix and Poly(l -lactide-co-caprolactone) for Endothelial Cells Delivery and Skin Wound Repair
The new patch made of cell matrix and a polymer improves wound healing and supports blood vessel growth.
research Mechanical forces across compartments coordinate cell shape and fate transitions to generate tissue architecture
Mechanical forces are crucial for shaping cells and forming tissues during development.
