research The G-Protein Couple Receptor Kinase 2 (GRK2) Orchestrates Hair Follicle Homeostasis
GRK2 is essential for healthy hair follicle function, and its absence can lead to hair loss and cysts.
research The Epithelial Stem Cell Niche in Skin
Skin's epithelial stem cells are crucial for repair and maintenance, and understanding them could improve treatments for skin problems.
research Three-dimensional reconstructions of mechanosensory end organs suggest a unifying mechanism underlying dynamic, light touch
Dynamic, light touch is sensed through a common mechanism involving Piezo2 channels in sensory axons.
research Wnt-dependent de novo hair follicle regeneration in adult mouse skin after wounding
Hair follicles can regrow in wounded adult mouse skin using a process like embryo development.
research Deciphering the function of canonical Wnt signals in development and disease: conditional loss- and gain-of-function mutations of β-catenin in mice
Wnt signaling is vital for cell growth, development, and cancer research.
research Dedifferentiation of committed epithelial cells into stem cells in vivo
Certain mature cells in mouse lungs can turn back into stem cells to aid in tissue repair.
research Nerve-Derived Sonic Hedgehog Defines a Niche for Hair Follicle Stem Cells Capable of Becoming Epidermal Stem Cells
Nerve signals are crucial for hair follicle stem cells to become skin stem cells and help in wound healing.
research Defining stem cell dynamics and migration during wound healing in mouse skin epidermis
Stem cells help heal wounds by rapidly dividing and migrating to the wound edge.
research Mesenchymal–epithelial interactions during hair follicle morphogenesis and cycling
The conclusion is that certain cell interactions and signals are crucial for hair growth and regeneration.
research Hair follicle aging is driven by transepidermal elimination of stem cells via COL17A1 proteolysis
Hair loss and aging are caused by the breakdown of a key protein in hair stem cells.
research Stem cell dynamics, migration and plasticity during wound healing
Stem cells help heal skin wounds by moving and changing roles, working with other cells, and needing more research on their activation and behavior.
research Ethnicity, obesity and the prevalence of impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes in PCOS: a systematic review and meta-regression
Women with PCOS are more likely to have impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes, especially if they are Asian or obese.
research Cell-Type-Specific Chromatin States Differentially Prime Squamous Cell Carcinoma Tumor-Initiating Cells for Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition
Different types of skin cells have unique genetic markers that affect how likely they are to spread cancer.
research Sic Transit Gloria: Farewell to the Epidermal Transit Amplifying Cell?
New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.
research A matter of life and death: self‐renewal in stem cells
Stem cell self-renewal is complex and needs more research for full understanding.
research Stem cell dynamics in the hair follicle niche
Stem cells in the hair follicle are regulated by their surrounding environment, which is important for hair growth.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Epithelial Skin Biology
The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.
research Skin Adipocyte Stem Cell Self-Renewal Is Regulated by a PDGFA/AKT-Signaling Axis
PDGFA/AKT signaling is important for the growth and maintenance of certain skin fat cells.
research Physiologic functions of PP2A: Lessons from genetically modified mice
Mice studies show that Protein Phosphatase 2A is crucial for cell growth, development, and disease prevention.
research Inhibition of β-catenin signalling in dermal fibroblasts enhances hair follicle regeneration during wound healing
Blocking β-catenin in skin cells improves hair growth during wound healing.
research Cell Types Promoting Goosebumps Form a Niche to Regulate Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Muscles and nerves that cause goosebumps also help control hair growth.
research YAP and TAZ are essential for basal and squamous cell carcinoma initiation
YAP and TAZ proteins are necessary for the development of two types of skin cancer.
research Local heroes or villains: tissue-resident memory T cells in human health and disease
Tissue-resident memory T cells can protect against infections and cancer but may also contribute to autoimmune diseases.
research Proinflammatory cytokines regulate epidermal stem cells in wound epithelialization
Certain immune system proteins are important for skin healing but can cause problems if there are too many of them.
research Intravital imaging of hair follicle regeneration in the mouse
Two-photon microscopy helps observe hair follicle stem cell behaviors in mice.
research New insights into the functions of Cox-2 in skin and esophageal malignancies
Cox-2 significantly contributes to the development and progression of skin and esophageal cancers.
