270-300 / 1000+ resultsresearch Epithelial elements in superficial angiomyxomas: mimicry of adnexal development, and mesenchymal‐to‐epithelial transition
Epithelial elements in superficial angiomyxomas are non-neoplastic growths mimicking embryogenesis.
research CRISPR–Cas9: A History of Its Discovery and Ethical Considerations of Its Use in Genome Editing
CRISPR-Cas9 allows precise DNA editing but raises ethical concerns about modifying human embryos.
research Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Human Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Human hair follicle cells can be turned into stem cells similar to embryonic stem cells.
research Through the lens of hair follicle neogenesis, a new focus on mechanisms of skin regeneration after wounding
Hair can regrow in large wounds through a process similar to how hair forms in embryos, and understanding this could lead to new treatments for hair loss or scarring.
research Co-opting Developmental Signaling Pathways to Promote Wound Healing
Using developmental signaling pathways could improve adult wound healing by mimicking scarless embryonic healing.
research Functional analysis of thymosin beta-4 using over-expressing transgenic mice
Melanoma cells lose their ability to form tumors when placed in a zebrafish embryo environment.
research The potential of nestin-expressing hair follicle stem cells in regenerative medicine
Hair follicle stem cells could help repair nerves and avoid ethical issues linked to embryonic stem cells.
research Multi-scale modeling for cell fate specification during regeneration and development
Signaling factors and gene-driven cell adhesion are crucial for wound healing and embryo development.
research Human Stem Cell Transplantation: An Overview Of The Islamic Perspective's Ethical Issues In Malaysia
Islamic perspectives in Malaysia raise ethical concerns about using stem cells, especially from embryos, for beauty and medical treatments.
research THE EXPRESSION CHARACTERISTICS AND THEIR BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF EPIDERMAL GROWTH FACTOR AND BASIC FIBROBLAST GROWTH FACTOR IN RAT SKINS AT DIFFERENT DEVELOPMENT STAGES
EGF aids skin development and healing, while bFGF absence in embryos may allow scar-free healing.
research Sperm aneuploidy in infertile male patients: a systematic review of the literature
Infertile men are more likely to produce sperm with abnormal chromosome numbers, which can affect pregnancy success and embryo health.
research Effects of dobutamine on cyclic AMP accumulation induced by the stimulation of dopamine receptors in rabbit retina in vitro
Dobutamine does not mimic dopamine at therapeutic doses but may at very high concentrations; microfilaments, not microtubules, are important for wound healing in Xenopus embryos.
research Adult Stem Cells as an Alternative Source of Multipotential (Pluripotential) Cells in Regenerative Medicine
Adult stem cells can become many different cell types, offering wide possibilities for repairing damaged tissues.
research The skin and hair of the southern elephant seal, (Mirounga Leonina (L.) II. pre-natal and early post-natal development and moulting
Southern elephant seals develop hair follicles and skin layers before birth, with moulting starting a week after birth and finishing in three weeks.
research LASER-ASSISTED HAIR REMOVAL
Laser hair removal is an advanced and effective method for removing unwanted hair.
research Systematic analyses of murine masculinization processes based on genital sex differentiation parameters
DHT is crucial for urethral formation, and its disruption can affect masculinization and lead to hypospadias.
research Rapid mechanosensitive migration and dispersal of newly divided mesenchymal cells aid their recruitment into dermal condensates
Newly divided skin cells quickly move to join skin structures due to tissue tension and specific signals.
