480-510 / 1000+ results research The composition of cell‐based therapies obtained from point‐of‐care devices/systems which mechanically dissociate lipoaspirate: a scoping review of the literature
It's unclear if cell-based therapies from lipoaspirate devices improve clinical outcomes due to inconsistent data.
research 039 Expansion of regulatory T Cells restrains pathogenic CD8 T Cells in a murine model of alopecia areata
Expanding regulatory T cells may help treat alopecia areata by reducing harmful immune cells.
research 557 Short-term Rho-associated kinase inhibitor treatment accelerates primary keratinocyte growth without affecting the characteristics of the stem cell population
Short-term treatment with ROCKi increases skin cell growth without changing stem cell features.
research Distinct stem cells contribute to mammary gland development and maintenance
Different types of long-lasting stem cells are responsible for the growth and upkeep of the mammary gland.
research Ornithine decarboxylase is a target for chemoprevention of basal and squamous cell carcinomas in Ptch1+/– mice
Targeting ornithine decarboxylase can help prevent skin cancer.
research TLRgeting Evasion of Immune Pathways in Glioblastoma
Some brain cancer cells avoid immune system detection, and certain treatments could target this to slow their growth; also, certain fat cell precursors help regenerate hair and skin after injury.
research RSPO1-mutated keratinocytes from palmoplantar keratoderma display impaired differentiation, alteration of cell–cell adhesion, EMT-like phenotype and invasiveness properties: implications for squamous cell carcinoma susceptibility in patients with 46XX disorder of sexual development
RSPO1 mutations in certain patients lead to skin cells that don't develop properly and are more likely to become invasive, increasing the risk of skin cancer.
research MicroRNA-149-Mediated MAPK1/ERK2 Suppression Attenuates Hair Follicle Stem Cell Differentiation
Increasing miR-149 reduces hair follicle stem cell growth and hair development by affecting certain cell growth pathways.
research 1412 “Telescope model” for coordinated organ morphogenesis and stem cell formation
Developing hair follicles form from ring-shaped patterns, with future stem cells originating from the outer ring, not the upper layers, as previously thought.
research 1369 Blue light stimulatory effect on hair growth mediated by opsin and cryptochrome photoreceptors
Blue light can help hair grow by affecting certain receptors in hair follicles.
research Lichen planopilaris associated with hair extensions in a patient with alopecia areata: A case report
Hair extensions can worsen scalp conditions and should be avoided in those with alopecia.
research Proline-rich protein-like PRPL1 controls elongation of root hairs in Arabidopsis thaliana
A gene in Arabidopsis thaliana, AtPRPL1, affects root hair length but not cell wall composition.
research Tissue Engineering of the Reproductive System
Cell transplantation faces challenges in genitourinary reconstruction, but alternative tissue sources and microencapsulation show promise.
research Effect of decellularisation methods on methacryloyl-substituted placental ECM hydrogels
PlacMA hydrogels from human placenta are versatile and useful for cell culture and tissue engineering.
research 3D Spheroid Human Dermal Papilla Cell as an Effective Model for the Screening of Hair Growth Promoting Compounds: Examples of Minoxidil and 3,4,5-Tri-O-Caffeoylquinic Acid (TCQA)
3D cell cultures are better for testing hair growth treatments than 2D cultures.
research Apoptosis in human skin development: Morphogenesis, periderm, and stem cells
Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.
research An Extended Epidermal Response Heals Cutaneous Wounds in the Absence of a Hair Follicle Stem Cell Contribution
Skin can heal wounds without hair follicle stem cells, but it takes a bit longer.
research The Senescence–Stemness Alliance – A Cancer-Hijacked Regeneration Principle
Cancer can hijack the body's cell repair system to promote tumor growth, and targeting this process may improve cancer treatments.
research Emerging nonmetabolic functions of skin fat
Skin fat has important roles in hair growth, skin repair, immune defense, and aging, and could be targeted for skin and hair treatments.
research Cell surface receptor kinase FERONIA linked to nutrient sensor TORC signaling controls root hair growth at low temperature linked to low nitrate in Arabidopsis thaliana
FER and TOR signaling help root hair growth in low temperature and low nitrate conditions.
research Mechanical Stretch Upregulates SDF-1α in Skin Tissue and Induces Migration of Circulating Bone Marrow-Derived Stem Cells into the Expanded Skin
Stretching skin increases a certain protein that attracts stem cells, helping skin regeneration.
research TGF‐β2 is specifically expressed in human dermal papilla cells and modulates hair folliculogenesis
TGF-β2 plays a key role in human hair growth and development.
research Reprogramming of Human Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells into Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Human hair follicle cells can be successfully transformed into different types of cells, but not more efficiently than other adult cells.
research The Vitamin D Receptor Is Required for Mouse Hair Cycle Progression but not for Maintenance of the Epidermal Stem Cell Compartment
Vitamin D Receptor is needed for hair growth in mice but not for skin stem cell maintenance.
research Basal cell carcinomas acquire secondary mutations to overcome dormancy and progress from microscopic to macroscopic disease
Basal cell carcinomas need extra mutations to grow from small to large tumors.
research Ethyl acetate fraction of Eclipta alba: a potential phytopharmaceutical targeting adipocyte differentiation
Eclipta alba extract may help treat obesity by blocking fat cell formation and lowering blood lipid levels.
research The patch assay reconstitutes mature hair follicles by culture-expanded human cells
The patch assay can create mature hair follicles from human cells and may help in hair loss treatments.
research Clonal analysis of stem cells in differentiation and disease
New techniques have enhanced our understanding of how stem cells function and the role of mutations in aging tissues, which may influence future cancer therapies.
research Conditioned media obtained from human outer root sheath follicular keratinocyte culture activates signalling pathways that contribute to maintenance of hair-inducing capacity and increases trichogenicity of cultured dermal cells
The substance from human hair root cells can help maintain hair growth and make skin cells more capable of growing hair.
