240-270 / 1000+ results research Formation of surface membranes in developing mammalian hair fibres
Mature hair surfaces are formed by keratinized cells with developed layers, not just modified plasma membranes.
research Dermal-epidermal interactions—follicle-derived cell populations in the study of hair-growth mechanisms
Dermal-epidermal interactions are crucial for hair growth and maintenance.
research Heterotypic cell contacts and basal lamina morphology during hair follicle development in the mouse: a light, scanning, and electron microscopic study at the site of tissue interaction
Heterotypic cell contacts likely help hair matrix cells differentiate during mouse hair follicle development.
research 09-P006 Epithelial–mesenchymal interactions promote hair follicle neogenesis and a new stem cell niche in adult corneal epithelium
Adult hair follicle cells can create new hair follicles from corneal cells with the right support.
research Reviewer #4 (Public Review): Spatiotemporal dynamics of sensory neuron and Merkel-cell remodeling are decoupled during epidermal homeostasis
Sensory neuron remodeling and Merkel-cell changes in the skin happen independently.
research Organotypic Cocultures as Models to Study Cell-Cell and Cell-Matrix Interactions of Human Hair Follicle Cells
Human dermal fibroblasts and hair papilla cells help outer root sheath cells grow and develop properly.
research Immunohistochemical expressions of mGluR5, P2Y2 receptor, PLC-?1, and IP3R-I and -II in Merkel cells in rat sinus hair follicles
research Comparative immunohistochemical analysis suggests a conserved role of EPS8L1 in epidermal and hair follicle barriers of mammals
research Reviewer #1 (Public Review): Spatiotemporal dynamics of sensory neuron and Merkel-cell remodeling are decoupled during epidermal homeostasis
Sensory neuron and Merkel-cell changes in the skin happen independently during normal skin maintenance.
research Inductive Properties of Hair Follicle Cells
Hair growth can be induced by certain cells found at the base of hair follicles, and these cells may also influence hair development and regeneration.
research Progenitor cells expressing nestin, a neural crest stem cell marker, differentiate into outer root sheath keratinocytes
Nestin-expressing progenitor cells become outer root sheath keratinocytes.
research Electron Microscope Studies of the Human Epidermis The Clear Cell of Masson (Dendritic Cell or Melanocyte)
A unique skin cell similar to hair bulb melanocytes was identified, with better preservation using permanganate fixation.
research Ex Vivo Organ Culture of Human Hair Follicles: A Model Epithelial–Neuroectodermal–Mesenchymal Interaction System
Hair follicle culture helps study cell interactions and effects of substances on tissue growth.
research Cultured Keratinocyte Sheets Enhanced Spontaneous Re-Epithelialization in a Dermal Explant Model of Partial-Thickness Wound Healing
research Dendritic cell migrations involving the pilosebaceous unit in the development of murine skin
Dendritic cells help regulate skin development and hair growth in mice.
research Two- and Three-Dimensional Culture of Keratinocyte Stem and Precursor Cells Derived from Primary Murine Epidermal Cultures
research KCNQ4 K+ channels tune mechanoreceptors for normal touch sensation in mouse and man
research Induction of Hair Follicle Regeneration in Rat Ear by Dermal Papilla Cell Microcapsules
Microencapsulated cells can regenerate hair follicles in rat ears.
research eLife assessment: Touch receptor end-organ innervation and function require sensory neuron expression of the transcription factor Meis2
Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and proper nerve connection to touch receptors in certain skin areas of mice.
research Homeostatic maintenance of the murine corneal epithelium in pathophysiological contexts
Corneal health relies on cell migration and cooperation with the lacrimal gland, not Bmi1+ cells, and Eda gene mutations can cause dry eye disease.
research Spatiotemporal dynamics of sensory neuron and Merkel-cell remodeling are decoupled during epidermal homeostasis
Merkel cells stabilize nerve endings in the skin, and they change independently of each other.
research Self-assembly of dermal papilla cells into inductive spheroidal microtissues on poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) membranes for hair follicle regeneration
EVAL membranes help create cell structures that can regrow hair follicles.
research Differentiation of the basal cell epithelioma-like changes overlying dermatofibroma.
Basal cell epithelioma-like changes are most similar to normal basal cells.
research Single-cell transcriptomics defines keratinocyte differentiation in avian scutate scales
The research identified two types of keratinocytes in chicken scales: one for hard scales and another for soft skin, with similarities to human skin differentiation.
research Hair matrix germinative epidermal cells confer follicle-inducing capabilities on dermal sheath and high passage papilla cells
Hair growth can be stimulated by combining certain skin cells, which can rejuvenate old cells and cause them to specialize in hair follicle creation.
research Transformation of amnion epithelium into skin and hair follicles
Mouse amnion can turn into skin and hair follicles with help from certain cells and factors.
research Growth and differentiation of human keratinocytes cultured on eye lens capsules
Eye lens capsules are the best for growing human skin cells.
