Epidermal stem cells have potential for personalized regenerative medicine but need careful handling to avoid cancer.
research Molecular principles of hair follicle induction and morphogenesis
Hair follicle development is controlled by interactions between skin tissues and specific molecular signals.
research Keratin disorders: from gene to therapy
New treatments targeting specific genes show promise for treating keratin disorders.
research Loss-of-Function Mutations in HOXC13 Cause Pure Hair and Nail Ectodermal Dysplasia
Mutations in the HOXC13 gene cause hair and nail development issues.
research Hedgehog and Gli Signaling in Embryonic Mammary Gland Development
Hedgehog signaling is crucial for mammary gland development over hair follicles.
research Small molecules and small molecule drugs in regenerative medicine
