research Organ regeneration based on developmental biology: past and future
Scientists have made progress in growing mini-organs and regenerating parts of the skin, with plans to treat hair loss in a future trial.
research A Review of Herbal Medications for the Treatment of Alopecia
Herbal medications might be safer and more effective for hair loss than synthetic treatments.
research Control by a hair’s breadth: the role of microRNAs in the skin
MicroRNAs play a crucial role in skin and hair health, affecting everything from growth to aging, and could potentially be used in treating skin diseases.
research Human keratinocytes derived from the bulge region of hair follicles are refractory to differentiation
Hair follicle cells resist turning into skin cells.
research More than one way to skin . . .
Skin stem cells help repair damage and maintain healthy skin.
research MicroRNA-214 controls skin and hair follicle development by modulating the activity of the Wnt pathway
MicroRNA-214 is important for skin and hair growth because it affects the Wnt pathway.
research Wnt/β‐catenin pathway in tissue injury: roles in pathology and therapeutic opportunities for regeneration
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway helps tissue regeneration but can also cause fibrosis, and drugs that inhibit this pathway may aid in healing skin and heart tissues.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Skin Epidermis
The skin protects the body and is constantly renewed by stem cells; disruptions can lead to cancer.
research Choreographing Immunity in the Skin Epithelial Barrier
The document concludes that the skin's immune system is complex, involving interactions with hair follicles, nerves, and microbes, and can protect or cause disease, offering targets for new treatments.
research Epidermal abnormalities and increased malignancy of skin tumors in human epidermal keratin 8‐expressing transgenic mice
Mice with human skin protein K8 had more skin problems and cancer.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research MicroRNAs in the skin: role in development, homoeostasis and regeneration
MicroRNAs are important for skin health and could be targets for new skin disorder treatments.
research Morphogenesis and maintenance of the 3D thymic medulla and prevention of nude skin phenotype require FoxN1 in pre- and post-natal K14 epithelium
FoxN1 gene is essential for proper thymus structure and preventing hair loss.
research Epimorphin expression during human foetal hair follicle development
Epimorphin, a protein, plays a key role in the development of hair follicles in human fetuses, but it doesn't help in maintaining the stem cell population of the follicular skin layer.
research Recreation of a hair follicle regenerative microenvironment: Successes and pitfalls
Hair growth environment recreated with challenges; stem cells make successful skin organoids.
research Integration of Biochemical and Mechanical Signals at the Nuclear Periphery: Impacts on Skin Development and Disease
The conclusion is that the nuclear lamina and LINC complex in skin cells respond to mechanical signals, affecting gene expression and cell differentiation, which is important for skin health and can impact skin diseases.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
research Principles and mechanisms of regeneration in the mouse model for wound‐induced hair follicle neogenesis
Mice can grow new hair follicles after skin wounds through a process not involving existing hair stem cells, but requiring more research to understand fully.
research Dicer- and BSC-dependent miRNAs during murine anagen development
Dicer is crucial for hair growth in mice.
research Indian Hedgehog Controls Proliferation and Differentiation in Skin Tumorigenesis and Protects against Malignant Progression
Indian Hedgehog helps control skin cell growth and protects against aggressive skin cancer.
research Wound Induced Hair Neogenesis – A Novel Paradigm for Studying Regeneration and Aging
Wounds can regenerate hair in young mice, but this ability declines with age, offering insights for improving tissue regeneration in the elderly.
research Skin Epidermis and Adnexa Regrowth Induced by Treatment With Artificial Dermal Template After Full-Thickness Skin Wound
Artificial dermal template treatment can stimulate complete skin and hair follicle regrowth.
research The Dynamics of the Skin’s Immune System
The skin has a complex immune system that is essential for protection and healing, requiring more research for better wound treatment.
research Signaling Involved in Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Development
