Research
330-360 / 1000+ results research The role of cell–cell and cell–matrix junctional complexes in sebaceous gland homeostasis and differentiation
Cell junctions are crucial for healthy skin by supporting sebaceous gland function and sebum production.
research Manipulation of stem cell proliferation and lineage commitment:visualisation of label-retaining cells in wholemounts of mouse epidermis
Stem cell behavior varies with stimuli, and lineage changes can happen without affecting stem cell division.
research Syndecan-1 Is Required to Maintain Intradermal Fat and Prevent Cold Stress
Syndecan-1 is essential for maintaining skin fat and preventing cold stress.
research Acidic and basic hair/nail ("hard") keratins: their colocalization in upper cortical and cuticle cells of the human hair follicle and their relationship to "soft" keratins.
Hair and nail cells share similar proteins, indicating a common differentiation pathway.
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 Control of Epithelial–Mesenchymal Interactions During Hair Follicle Cycling
Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions control hair growth cycles through specific molecular signals.
research Identification of Stem Cell Populations in Sweat Glands and Ducts Reveals Roles in Homeostasis and Wound Repair
The study found that sweat glands contain different types of stem cells that help with healing and maintaining healthy skin.
research Polymeric nanoparticles‐based topical delivery systems for the treatment of dermatological diseases
Polymeric nanoparticles show promise for treating skin diseases.
research Types I and II Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.
research Penetration of drugs through skin, a complex rate-controlling membrane
The skin is a complex barrier for drug penetration, but understanding its structure and interactions can improve drug delivery methods.
research Epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in cutaneous wound healing: Where we are and where we are heading
The document concludes that a better understanding of cell changes during wound healing could improve treatments for chronic wounds and other conditions.
research The Cytology and Cytochemistry of the Wool Follicle
Wool follicles are complex, involving interactions between different cell types and structures.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research The role of nuclear hormone receptors in cutaneous wound repair
Nuclear hormone receptors play a significant role in skin wound healing and could lead to better treatment methods.
research Anti-Acne Agents Attenuate FGFR2 Signal Transduction in Acne
Anti-acne medications may work by reducing the activity of a protein involved in acne development.
research Dermatosurgical techniques for repigmentation of vitiligo
Surgical methods like suction blister grafting and split-thickness skin grafting are highly successful for vitiligo repigmentation, but choosing the right patients is crucial for success.
research Skin Keratins
Keratins are important for skin cell health and their problems can cause diseases.
