Dermal papilla cells can help regrow hair and are promising for hair loss treatments.
research Transdifferentiation of corneal epithelium: evidence for a linkage between the segregation of epidermal stem cells and the induction of hair follicles during embryogenesis.
Corneal cells can transform into hair-producing skin cells when exposed to certain signals.
research Topobiology of Human Pigmentation: P-Cadherin Selectively Stimulates Hair Follicle Melanogenesis
P-cadherin is crucial for hair follicle pigmentation but not skin pigmentation.
research The cell-surface marker MTS24 identifies a novel population of follicular keratinocytes with characteristics of progenitor cells
MTS24 marks a new type of skin cell that helps hair growth and repair.
research 0882 Patterning and regional specification of hairy skin
Secreted inhibitors of Wnt and IGF signaling control hair and tooth development, creating species-specific patterns.
research A Niche Above: A Novel Modality of Stem Cell Regulation in Mammalian Skin Epidermis
Skin cell behavior is influenced by the tightness of nearby cells, affecting their growth and development.
research 918 Skin morphogenesis by coupling biochemical-bioelectric signals: Calcium oscillations coordinate dermal cell movement by epidermis-derived SHH signaling during feather bud orientation

research The multipotency of adult vibrissa follicle stem cells
Adult vibrissa follicle stem cells can regenerate hair follicles, glands, and skin.
research The structure of hair and follicles of mice carrying the naked (N) gene
Mice with the naked gene have missing or abnormal hair cells.
research Multi-potentiality of a new immortalized epithelial stem cell line derived from human hair follicles
Scientists created a long-lasting stem cell line from human hair that can turn into different skin and hair cell types.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Lrig1 expression defines a distinct multipotent stem cell population in mammalian epidermis.
Lrig1 marks a unique group of stem cells in mouse skin that can become different skin cell types.
research Cross-linked features of mouse pelage hair resistant to detergent extraction
Some mutant mice have hair with abnormal cross-linking, mainly in the cuticle, not affecting other hair parts.
research Pattern of expression of c-Myc, Max and Bin1 in human anagen hair follicles
c-Myc, Max, and Bin1 help hair follicle cells mature and die.
research Epithelial stem cells and implications for wound repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
research CtBP1 Overexpression in Keratinocytes Perturbs Skin Homeostasis
Overexpressing CtBP1 in skin cells causes skin and hair problems.
research Tight junctions form a barrier in porcine hair follicles
Tight junctions create a barrier in pig hair follicles that controls what can enter the skin.
research Cytokeratin 15 expression in trichoepitheliomas and a subset of basal cell carcinomas suggests they originate from hair follicle stem cells
Trichoepitheliomas and some basal cell carcinomas likely come from hair follicle stem cells.
research Telocytes are a critical source of Wnts essential for hair follicle regeneration
Telocytes, cells with long extensions, are vital for hair growth because they produce Wnt signals, which are necessary for hair follicle regeneration.
research Dermal Papilla Cells Improve the Wound Healing Process and Generate Hair Bud-Like Structures in Grafted Skin Substitutes Using Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Dermal papilla cells help wounds heal better and can potentially grow new hair.
