research Inducible deletion of epidermal Dicer and Drosha reveals multiple functions for miRNAs in postnatal skin
Drosha and Dicer are essential for hair follicle health and preventing DNA damage in skin cells.
research Hair follicle and interfollicular epidermal stem cells make varying contributions to wound regeneration
Different skin stem cells help heal wounds, with hair follicle cells becoming more important over time.
research Disruption of Smad4 in Mouse Epidermis Leads to Depletion of Follicle Stem Cells
Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.
research Conversion of the Nipple to Hair-Bearing Epithelia by Lowering Bone Morphogenetic Protein Pathway Activity at the Dermal-Epidermal Interface
Blocking a specific protein signal can make hair grow on mouse nipples.
research Severe Physical Complications among Survivors of Stevens–Johnson Syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis
SJS/TEN survivors often have severe, overlooked long-term physical problems that are not properly treated after leaving the hospital.
research Differential expression of stem cell markers in human follicular bulge and interfollicular epidermal compartments
Different markers are found in stem cells of the scalp's hair follicle bulge and the surrounding skin.
research Dermal-epidermal interactions—follicle-derived cell populations in the study of hair-growth mechanisms
Dermal-epidermal interactions are crucial for hair growth and maintenance.
research Dermal‐Epidermal Cross‐Talk: Differential Interactions With Microvascular Endothelial Cells
Human dermal fibroblasts help microvascular endothelial cells grow, but not vice versa.
research Ocular and Mucocutaneous Sequelae among Survivors of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis in Togo
Many survivors of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis in Togo suffer long-term eye and skin problems.
research 1323 The effects of 3-OH of kaempferol on interfollicular epidermal stem cell fate
Kaempferol helps skin stem cells grow and may improve skin thickness due to its 3-OH group.
research Application of second near infrared fluorescence imaging to trace CelTrac1000-labeled hair follicle epidermal neural crest stem cells in repairing rat facial nerve defects
NIR-II imaging effectively tracked stem cells that helped repair facial nerve defects in rats.
research 138 Characterization of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes of a reconstructed human epidermal model from adult hair follicles
The reconstructed skin model from hair follicles functions like human skin in processing chemicals and can be used to test ingredient safety.
research LB788 Development of a novel three-dimensional human epidermal model from plucked hair follicle-derived keratinocytes
Scientists created a new 3D skin model from cells of plucked hairs that works like real skin and is easier to get.
research Wnt7a can up-regulates cell adhesion related protein fibronectin expression and promotes cell proliferation in corneal epithelial cells
Wnt7a helps corneal cells grow and stick together, aiding in repair.
research Dermal β-catenin activity in response to epidermal Wnt ligands is required for fibroblast proliferation and hair follicle initiation
Skin needs dermal β-catenin activity for hair growth and skin cell multiplication.
research Smad7-Induced β-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research Re-investigating the Basement Membrane Zone of Psoriatic Epidermal Lesions: Is Laminin-511 a New Player in Psoriasis Pathogenesis?
Laminin-511 may contribute to psoriasis by affecting skin cell growth and survival.
research THE HUMAN HAIR FOLLICLE AS SENTINEL FOR DRUGS EVALUATION: DEMONSTRATION OF TETRACYCLINE ADHESION TO HAIR FOLLICLE AS PROPOSED MECHANISM IN DYSFUNCTIONAL HAIR LOSS
Tetracycline can stick to hair follicles and potentially cause hair loss.
research The Rho guanosine nucleotide exchange factors Vav2 and Vav3 modulate epidermal stem cell function
Vav2 and Vav3 proteins help control skin stem cell numbers and activity in both healthy and cancerous cells.
research 918 Skin morphogenesis by coupling biochemical-bioelectric signals: Calcium oscillations coordinate dermal cell movement by epidermis-derived SHH signaling during feather bud orientation
Calcium signals and SHH guide the direction of feather growth in chicken skin.
research The arrector pili muscle, the bridge between the follicular stem cell niche and the interfollicular epidermis
The study suggests that the arrector pili muscle is important for hair health and its damage might contribute to hair loss.
research Dysfunction of keratinocyte adhesion
Keratinocyte adhesion problems can cause skin and hair disorders.
