Smad1 and Smad5 are essential for hair follicle development and stem cell sleepiness.
research The TFIID subunit TAF4 regulates keratinocyte proliferation and has cell-autonomous and non-cell-autonomous tumour suppressor activity in mouse epidermis
TAF4 is important for skin cell growth and helps prevent skin cancer in mice.
research Androgen antagonists in androgen target tissues
Antiandrogens have important biological effects, but more research is needed to understand them fully and compare their effectiveness and side effects to other treatments.
research Apoptotic cells represent a dynamic stem cell niche governing proliferation and tissue regeneration
Dying cells can help with faster healing and new hair growth by releasing a growth-promoting molecule.
research A use-and-transformation model for evaluating public R&D: Illustrations from polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) research
The document suggests a new model for evaluating public research that better captures the full value of knowledge creation and use, using PCOS research as an example.
research Stem Cells behind the Barrier
Stem cell differentiation is crucial for skin barrier maintenance and its disruption can lead to skin diseases.
research Bone vs. fat: Embryonic origin of progenitors determines response to androgen in adipocytes and osteoblasts
Androgens affect bone and fat cell development differently based on the cells' embryonic origin.
