research All Roads Go to the Nucleus: Integration of Signaling/Transcription Factor-Mediated and Epigenetic Regulatory Mechanisms in the Control of Skin Development and Regeneration
The nucleus is key in controlling skin growth and repair by coordinating signals, gene regulators, and epigenetic changes.
research High proliferation and delamination during skin epidermal stratification
High proliferation and cell delamination drive early skin development, while later stages may not rely on cell division orientation.
research Epithelial differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) undergoing three-dimensional (3D) cultivation with collagen sponge scaffold (CSS) via an indirect co-culture strategy
Using a collagen sponge scaffold helps stem cells become more like skin cells.
research Expression Profiling Reveals Genes Involved in the Regulation of Wool Follicle Bulb Regression and Regeneration in Sheep
The research identified genes and pathways important for sheep wool growth and shedding.
research Anatomical development of the skin in foetuses of Red Sokoto goats (Capra hircus)
Red Sokoto goat fetuses develop firmer, pigmented skin with hair follicles as they grow.
research Dysregulation of Grainyhead-like 3 expression causes widespread developmental defects
Not having enough or having too much of the protein Grainyhead-like 3 leads to various developmental problems.
research LB1077 Cutaneous responses to systemic iron: A potential role for epidermal turnover in mammalian iron excretion
Skin may help in getting rid of excess iron through the process of skin cell renewal.
research LB1081 Three-dimensional imaging of tight junction-network across multiple layers of human epidermis by array tomography using backscattered electron-mode scanning electron microscopy
The study found that tight junctions reach the top layer of the skin's stratum granulosum, not just the second top layer as previously thought.
research LB1076 Using the frog embryonic epidermis as a model to study desmosome function during development
Frog skin cells need the protein desmoplakin for proper development and cell layer formation.
