research The hair cycle
The document concludes that the hair cycle is a complex process involving growth, regression, and rest phases, regulated by various molecular signals.
research More than one way to skin . . .
Skin stem cells help repair damage and maintain healthy skin.
research Development of a Chitosan Nanofibrillar Scaffold for Skin Repair and Regeneration
Chitosan nanofiber scaffolds improve skin healing and are promising for wound treatment.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Epithelial Skin Biology
The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.
research The hair cycle
The document concludes that the hair cycle is a complex process involving growth, regression, and rest phases, regulated by various molecular signals.
research Building Epithelial Tissues from Skin Stem Cells
Skin stem cells help maintain skin health, grow hair, and heal wounds.
research Stem Cells behind the Barrier
Stem cell differentiation is crucial for skin barrier maintenance and its disruption can lead to skin diseases.
research Dermabrasion
Dermabrasion improves skin appearance by removing the top layer to promote healing.
research A model system for long-term serum-free suspension organ culture of human fetal tissues: experiments on digits and skin from multiple body regions
Scientists developed a method to grow human fetal skin and digits in a lab for 3-4 weeks, which could help study skin features and understand genetic interactions in tissue formation.
research Regulation of Semaphorin3A in the process of cutaneous wound healing
Sema3A can both slow and speed up wound healing, depending on its form and combination with EGF.
research Stem cell and extracellular matrix-related molecules increase following melatonin treatment in the skin of postmenopausal rats
Melatonin treatment helps improve skin health in postmenopausal rats.
research Skin biology
Current therapies cannot fully regenerate adult skin without scars; more research is needed for scar-free healing.
research Human Pilosebaceous Culture
Hair follicle cells can help heal wounds and study skin diseases.
research The effect of experimental hypothyroidism on the skin of adult male albino rats and the therapeutic role of topical triiodothyronine
Hypothyroidism harms rat skin, but topical triiodothyronine may help improve it.
research Resident Stem Cell in Skin
Skin stem cells can help improve skin repair and regeneration.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The document concludes that the skin is a complex organ providing protection, sensation, and healing, with challenges in treating conditions like itchiness.
research Skin Biology: Understanding Biological Targets for Improving Appearance
The document concludes that a deeper understanding of skin aging and photodamage is needed to create better skin treatments.
research The combination of Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) and Nigella sativa Oil (NSO) in wound healing: A histochemical study of diabetic wounds
Combining Virgin Coconut Oil and Nigella Sativa Oil speeds up healing in diabetic wounds.
research Cell death as an architect of adult skin stem cell niches
Cell death shapes skin stem cell environments, affecting inflammation, repair, and cancer.
research Development of novel wound dressing based on elastin-like recombinamers for skin regeneration
Elastin-like recombinamers show promise for better wound healing and skin regeneration.
research Cornification
Cornification is the process where living skin cells die to create a protective barrier, and problems with it can cause skin diseases.
research N-terminal functional domain of Gasdermin A3 regulates mitochondrial homeostasis via mitochondrial targeting
Mutations in Gasdermin A3 cause skin inflammation and hair loss by disrupting mitochondria.
research Use of extracellular matrix hydrogel from human placenta to restore hair-inductive potential of dermal papilla cells
Human placenta hydrogel helps restore cells needed for hair growth.
research Pre-Clinical Cell-Based Therapy for Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency
Cell-based therapies show promise for treating Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency but need more research.
research Calcium regulation of stem cells
Calcium is important for stem cell function and maintenance, especially in blood and skin cells.
research In-Silico Modelling of Transdermal Delivery of Macromolecule Drugs Assisted by a Skin Stretching Hypobaric Device
The simulation showed that hypobaric pressure improves drug delivery through the skin, but stretching alone doesn't fully explain the increase.
research Multifunctional Merkel cells: Their roles in electromagnetic reception, finger-print formation, Reiki, epigenetic inheritance and hair form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research Formation of the cornified envelope
