540-570 / 1000+ resultsresearch Life before and beyond blistering: The role of collagen XVII in epidermal physiology
Collagen XVII is vital for skin structure, hair stem cell support, and skin cell regulation.
research Drugs targeting epithelial–mesenchymal transition molecules for treatment of lichen planopilaris
Drugs targeting EMT molecules show promise for treating lichen planopilaris.
research Progress in studies of epidermal stem cells and their application in skin tissue engineering
Epidermal stem cells show promise for skin repair and regeneration.
research Early-stage bilayer tissue-engineered skin substitute formed by adult skin progenitor cells produces an improved skin structure in vivo
Adult skin cell-based early-stage skin substitutes improve wound healing and hair growth in mice.
research Microporous Dermal-Mimetic Electrospun Scaffolds Pre-Seeded with Fibroblasts Promote Tissue Regeneration in Full-Thickness Skin Wounds
Pre-seeding scaffolds with fibroblasts improves skin wound healing.
research Epidermal Deletion of Rac1 Causes Stem Cell Depletion, Irrespective of whether Deletion Occurs during Embryogenesis or Adulthood
Deleting Rac1 in the skin depletes stem cells and damages hair follicles.
research Bone marrow-derived vasculogenesis leads to scarless regeneration in deep wounds with periosteal defects
Using gelatin sponges for deep skin wounds helps bone marrow cells repair tissue without scarring.
research Highlights of Gene and Cell Therapy for Epidermolysis Bullosa and Ichthyosis
Gene and cell therapies are being developed to treat rare skin conditions like epidermolysis bullosa and ichthyosis.
research Decision letter: Interplay of opposing fate choices stalls oncogenic growth in murine skin epithelium
Skin cells can naturally limit the growth of cancerous changes by balancing cell renewal and differentiation.
research Expression of truncated latent TGF-β-binding protein modulates TGF-β signaling
Truncated LTBP-1 disrupts TGF-β signaling, affecting hair growth.
research States and Fates of Skin Fibroblasts Revealed through Chromatin Accessibility
Newborn skin cells can change into wound-healing cells more easily than adult ones, which might explain why baby skin heals without scars. Understanding this could help treat chronic wounds and prevent scarring.
research Monilethrix
A 12-year-old girl was diagnosed with monilethrix, a genetic condition causing fragile, beaded hair that breaks easily, with no effective treatment available.
research Micro-mechanical approaches to characterize tip growth: Insights into Root Hair Elasto-Viscoplastic Properties
Root hair stiffness is mainly influenced by tip compression and turgor pressure.
research Deficient Plakophilin-1 Expression Due to a Mutation in PKP1 Causes Ectodermal Dysplasia-Skin Fragility Syndrome in Chesapeake Bay Retriever Dogs
A PKP1 gene mutation causes skin fragility and hair loss in Chesapeake Bay retriever puppies.
research Homozygous ALOXE3 Nonsense Variant Identified in a Patient with Non-Bullous Congenital Ichthyosiform Erythroderma Complicated by Superimposed Bullous Majocchi’s Granuloma: The Consequences of Skin Barrier Dysfunction
A specific gene variant causes severe skin issues and increases infection risk, requiring careful medical monitoring.
research Role of boundary conditions in an experimental model of epithelial wound healing
Mast cells and VEGF contribute to post-surgery adhesions, and blocking VEGF can reduce these adhesions; also, certain factors affect wound healing and fetal skin heals differently with age.
research Selective Modulation of Hedgehog/GLI Target Gene Expression by Epidermal Growth Factor Signaling in Human Keratinocytes
EGF signaling affects gene expression in skin cells, influencing hair growth and potentially cancer.
research Ichthyosis, Follicular Atrophoderma, and Hypotrichosis Caused by Mutations in ST14 Is Associated with Impaired Profilaggrin Processing
Mutations in the ST14 gene cause skin and hair issues by disrupting important protein processing.
research Immunofluorescent localization of collagen types I, III and IV, fibronectin, laminin, and basement membrane proteoglycan in developing mouse skin
research Divergent molecular signatures of regeneration and fibrosis during wound repair
Disrupting YAP signaling in skin cells leads to scar-free healing directed by specific cell signals.
research More than One Gene Involved in Monilethrix: Intracellular but also Extracellular Players
Monilethrix involves multiple genes affecting hair structure, including DSG4 mutations.
research A rare pediatric case of loose anagen hair syndrome
Loose anagen hair syndrome in children may improve with age, but treatment results vary.
research RSPO1-mutated keratinocytes from palmoplantar keratoderma display impaired differentiation, alteration of cell–cell adhesion, EMT-like phenotype and invasiveness properties: implications for squamous cell carcinoma susceptibility in patients with 46XX disorder of sexual development
RSPO1 mutations in certain patients lead to skin cells that don't develop properly and are more likely to become invasive, increasing the risk of skin cancer.
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 The Effect of EGR1 on the Proliferation of Dermal Papilla Cells
Increasing EGR1 levels makes hair root cells grow faster.
research Compartmentalized Epidermal Activation of β-Catenin Differentially Affects Lineage Reprogramming and Underlies Tumor Heterogeneity
Activating β-catenin in different skin stem cells causes various types of hair growth and skin tumors.
research Elastoinertial effects govern dynamic response of soft hair beds
Hair beds in fluid show nonlinear response due to viscosity, inertia, and elasticity.
research Mammalian Fetal Organ Regeneration
Fetal wounds heal without scarring because of different biological factors, which could help improve adult wound healing.
research Keratins and skin disease
Keratin mutations cause skin diseases and could lead to new treatments.
