Research
510-540 / 1000+ resultsresearch Expression of retinoic acid receptors and dermal-epidermal interactions during mouse skin morphogenesis
Retinoic acid can change skin development, like turning scales into feathers or forming glands.
research Molecular and spatial design of early skin development
The research reveals how early embryonic mouse skin develops from simple to complex structures, identifying various cell types and their roles in this process.
research [Development of interfollicular epidermis on the surface of collagen framework of the dermis in experimental animals].
Keratinocytes grew and migrated into hair follicle areas but disappeared after 15-20 days.
research 1418 Characterization of ectomesenchyme as an origin of epidermal stem cells
Ectomesenchyme is a key source of skin stem cells.
research Rat Hair Follicle Dermal Papillae Have an Extracellular Matrix Containing Basement Membrane Components
research Epidermal Differentiation Enhances CRABP II Expression in Human Skin
research Mechanical stiffness across skin layers in human: a pilot study
The epidermis is the stiffest skin layer.
research Formation of the cornified envelope
The cornified envelope is crucial for skin's barrier function and involves key proteins and genetic factors.
research LB1081 Three-dimensional imaging of tight junction-network across multiple layers of human epidermis by array tomography using backscattered electron-mode scanning electron microscopy
The study found that tight junctions reach the top layer of the skin's stratum granulosum, not just the second top layer as previously thought.
research [Difference between the hair follicle cell and epidermal keratinocyte in vitro].
Hair follicle cells and skin cells differ in keratinization and other features.
research Cornification in reptilian epidermis occurs through the deposition of keratin‐associated beta‐proteins (beta‐keratins) onto a scaffold of intermediate filament keratins
Reptile skin hardens by layering beta-proteins on keratin.
research Immunolocalization of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors in Normal Developing Human Skin
research Integumentary System
The skin protects the body, helps heal wounds, stores energy, and supports health.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Molecular and spatial landmarks of early mouse skin development
The research maps the complex development of early mouse skin, identifying diverse cell types and their roles in forming skin layers and structures.
research The ultrastructure of the interfollicular epidermis of the hairless (hr/hr) mouse
research Epidermal Barrier
Healthy skin prevents water loss and protects against threats.
research Regeneration of Epidermal and Dental Tissues, Lens and Cornea
Most vertebrates can regenerate skin, nails, and corneas, but only some can regenerate teeth and lenses.
research Apoptosis in human skin development: Morphogenesis, periderm, and stem cells
Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.
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 A histochemical examination of the epidermis of the southern elephant seal (Mirounga leonina L.) during the telogen stage of hair growth
The southern elephant seal's skin layer helps waterproof the skin by being tightly connected to hair shafts.
research Differentiation of the basal cell epithelioma-like changes overlying dermatofibroma.
Basal cell epithelioma-like changes are most similar to normal basal cells.
research Characterization of the epidermal-dermal junction in hiPSC-derived skin organoids
The study created hair-bearing skin models that lack a key protein for skin layer attachment, limiting their use for certain skin disease research.
research Epidermal Development in Mammals: Key Regulators, Signals from Beneath, and Stem Cells
Skin development in mammals is controlled by key proteins and signals from underlying cells, involving stem cells for maintenance and repair.
research Distribution of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors in Rat Tissues During Embryonic Skin Development, Hair Formation, and the Adult Hair Growth Cycle
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 Keratin 16 Expression Defines a Subset of Epithelial Cells During Skin Morphogenesis and the Hair Cycle
research 564 Subpopulations of dermal fibroblasts produce distinct extracellular matrices
Different types of skin cells create unique support structures that can affect skin cell growth and could help in skin repair.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
