research Stem Cell Competition for Niche Occupancy: Emerging Themes and Mechanisms
Stem cells compete for space using cell adhesion, and mutations can affect their competitive success, with implications for tissue health and disease.
research MOF-mediated Histone H4 Lysine 16 Acetylation Governs Mitochondrial and Ciliary Functions By Controlling Gene Promoters
MOF controls skin development by regulating genes for mitochondria and cilia.
research Hair follicle morphogenesis and epidermal homeostasis in we/we wal/wal mice with postnatal alopecia
The we/we wal/wal mice have defects in hair growth and skin layer formation, causing hair loss, useful for understanding alopecia.
research The Hair Follicle as a Dynamic Miniorgan
Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.
research Mitochondrial Reactive Oxygen Species Promote Epidermal Differentiation and Hair Follicle Development
Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species are essential for skin and hair development.

Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.
research More than one way to skin . . .
Skin stem cells help repair damage and maintain healthy skin.
research Mice lacking desmocollin 1 show epidermal fragility accompanied by barrier defects and abnormal differentiation
Desmocollin 1 is essential for strong skin and proper skin function.
research Roles of jumonji and jumonji family genes in chromatin regulation and development
Jumonji genes are important for development and their mutations can cause abnormalities, especially in the heart and brain.
research Extraskeletal actions of vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
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 Role of cholesterol sulfate in epidermal structure and function: Lessons from X-linked ichthyosis
Cholesterol sulfate buildup due to a genetic mutation disrupts the skin barrier, leading to the scaling skin seen in X-linked ichthyosis.
research Learning from nudity: lessons from the nude phenotype
The Foxn1 gene mutation causes hairlessness and immune system issues, and understanding it could lead to hair growth disorder treatments.
research Human αβ and γδ T Cells in Skin Immunity and Disease
Certain types of T cells are essential for healthy skin and play a role in skin diseases, but more research is needed to improve treatments.
research Inherited ichthyoses/generalized Mendelian disorders of cornification
Inherited ichthyoses cause widespread skin scaling and thickening due to gene mutations.
research From Telogen to Exogen: Mechanisms Underlying Formation and Subsequent Loss of the Hair Club Fiber
Hair shedding is an active process that could be targeted to treat hair loss.
research Topographical and developmental studies on target sites of 1,25 (OH2) vitamin D3 in skin
Vitamin D3 affects cell differentiation in specific skin areas.
