510-540 / 1000+ resultsresearch Overexpression of Hoxc13 in differentiating keratinocytes results in downregulation of a novel hair keratin gene cluster and alopecia
Overexpression of Hoxc13 in hair cells causes hair loss and skin issues.
research Interaction between stem cell factor and endothelin-1: effects on melanogenesis in human skin xenografts
SCF and ET-1 together significantly increase skin pigmentation and melanin production.
research Constitutive Stat3 activation alters behavior of hair follicle stem and progenitor cell populations
Increased Stat3 activity reduces hair follicle stem cells and boosts other stem/progenitor cells.
research The detection of apoptosis and bcl2 in isolated secondary mohair follicles (growing and quiescent), cultured in vitro in the presence or absence of biotin
Biotin helps maintain hair follicle growth by affecting cell death and survival signals.
research A gene for monilethrix is closely linked to the type II keratin gene cluster at 12q13
Monilethrix is linked to a gene cluster on chromosome 12.
research Hair Follicle Pluripotent Stem (hfPS) Cells
research Generation of trichogenic adipose-derived stem cells by expression of three factors
Scientists made stem cells that can grow hair by adding three specific factors to them.
research The Noggin null mouse phenotype is strain dependent and haploinsufficiency leads to skeletal defects
Noggin gene inactivation causes skeletal defects in mice, varying by genetic background.
research 890 Development of pigmented reconstructed human epidermis model containing human melanoblasts from keratinocyte culture
The created skin model with melanoblasts improves the study of skin color and offers an alternative to animal testing.
research Clinical Snippets
A bull with a gene mutation was asymptomatic, synthetic retinoids cause hair loss, and new therapeutic targets were identified for skin diseases.
research Exposure to gamma-rays at the telogen phase of the hair cycle inhibits hair follicle regeneration at the anagen phase in mice
Gamma-ray exposure during hair rest phase harms hair growth and color in mice.
research Abstract 3372: Mouse keratinocyte side-population plays an important role during malignant progression to skin squamous cell carcinomas
Mouse skin cancer progression involves a unique group of cells marked by ABCG2 and MTS24.
research In vivo imaging of mammary epithelial cell dynamics in response to lineage-biased Wnt/β-catenin activation
Activating β-catenin in mammary cells leads to changes that cause early-stage abnormal growths similar to skin structures.
research 448 Physiological function of krox20 (Egr2) in epithelial stem cells
Krox20 is important for maintaining stem cells in the skin and affects hair growth and color.
research Live imaging of stem cells: answering old questions and raising new ones
Live imaging has advanced our understanding of stem cell behavior and raised new research questions.
research Hair follicle regeneration in vitro
Hair growth can be induced by transplanting certain cells, but these cells lose their properties during culturing. The best cell interaction happens in a liquid medium under gravity, and using collagen doesn't help. Future research could focus on using growth factors to stimulate these cells.
research A case report of a novel homozygote mutation causing severe Leydig cell hypoplasia: insights in the coexistence of nonsense mutation and polymorphism in the same LHCGR gene locus
A new genetic mutation causes severe Leydig cell hypoplasia, affecting sexual development.
research Stretching the limits: from homeostasis to stem cell plasticity in wound healing and cancer
Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.
research Progenitor‐cell‐enriched micrografts as a novel option for the management of androgenetic alopecia
Micrografts promote hair growth in androgenetic alopecia treatment.
research CPC12 Coinheritance of BRCA2 and CYLD germline pathogenic variants associated with targetable metastatic malignant cylindroma
Coinheritance of BRCA2 and CYLD genes may lead to new treatment options for certain cancers.
research 186 Dissecting the role of the common neurotrophin receptor CD271 in the skin: generation and characterization of a novel mouse model with keratinocyte-specific conditional deletion
Deleting the CD271 gene in mouse skin cells leads to disorganized skin and increased hair growth, suggesting CD271 is important for skin health.
research Population and Individual Stem Cell Dynamics in the Olfactory Epithelium
HBCs in the olfactory epithelium can self-renew or differentiate into other cell types, with specific patterns during regeneration.
