research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.

research Scratching the surface of skin development
The document concludes that skin stem cells are important for hair growth and wound healing, and could be used in regenerative medicine.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Self‐organizing hair peg‐like structures from dissociated skin progenitor cells: New insights for human hair follicle organoid engineering and Turing patterning in an asymmetric morphogenetic field
Researchers created early-stage hair-like structures from skin cells, showing how these cells can self-organize, but more is needed for complete hair growth.
research Metabolic and pathologic profiles of human LSS deficiency recapitulated in mice
Mice with LSS deficiency showed hair loss and cataracts, similar to humans, and can help in understanding and treating this condition.
research Deep phenotyping of skin tissue remodeling in patients with systemic sclerosis treated with CD19-CAR T cells
CD19-CAR T cell therapy may help regenerate skin in systemic sclerosis.
research Positive Impact of Fish Oil on Diabetic and Hypercholestrolemic Skin Disorders
Fish oil improves skin health in people with diabetes and high cholesterol.
research DNA Methylation as an Epigenetic Memory Keeper during Skin Development and Regeneration
DNA methylation is essential for skin and hair follicle development, and could be a target for treating skin diseases.
research Tcf3 and Lef1 regulate lineage differentiation of multipotent stem cells in skin
Tcf3 and Lef1 are key in deciding skin stem cell roles.
research Epigenetic control of adult stem cell function
Epigenetic changes control how adult stem cells work and can lead to diseases like cancer if they go wrong.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Theoretical considerations in laser hair removal
Laser hair removal effectiveness depends on targeting hair structures without harming the skin, and improvements require more research and expert collaboration.
research Human skin stem cells and the ageing process
Skin aging is due to impaired stem cell mobilization or fewer responsive stem cells.
research Regenerating the skin: a task for the heterogeneous stem cell pool and surrounding niche
Different types of stem cells and their environments are key to skin repair and maintenance.
research Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Adipose Tissue in Clinical Applications for Dermatological Indications and Skin Aging
Fat-derived stem cells show promise for skin repair and reducing aging signs but need more research for consistent results.
research Markers to Evaluate the Quality and Self-Renewing Potential of Engineered Human Skin Substitutes In Vitro and after Transplantation
Cytokeratin 19 and cytokeratin 15 are key markers for monitoring the quality and self-renewing potential of engineered skin.
research Selenoproteins Are Essential for Proper Keratinocyte Function and Skin Development
Selenoproteins are crucial for healthy skin and hair.
research Activin Controls Skin Morphogenesis and Wound Repair Predominantly via Stromal Cells and in a Concentration-Dependent Manner via Keratinocytes
Activin helps skin growth and healing mainly through stromal cells and affects keratinocytes based on its amount.
research Reversing wrinkled skin and hair loss in mice by restoring mitochondrial function
Restoring mitochondrial function in mice reversed their skin wrinkling and hair loss.
research The Effect of Plasma Rich in Growth Factors on Pattern Hair Loss: A Pilot Study
Treatment with plasma rich in growth factors improved hair density and thickness for hair loss patients.
research Inductive Properties of Hair Follicle Cells
Hair growth can be induced by certain cells found at the base of hair follicles, and these cells may also influence hair development and regeneration.
research Surface Tension Guided Hanging-Drop: Producing Controllable 3D Spheroid of High-Passaged Human Dermal Papilla Cells and Forming Inductive Microtissues for Hair-Follicle Regeneration
Technique creates 3D cell spheroids for hair-follicle regeneration.
research Localisation of members of the notch system and the differentiation of vibrissa hair follicles: Receptors, ligands, and fringe modulators
Notch-related genes play a key role in the development and cycling of hair follicles.
research The control of hair growth: An overview
Hair growth is influenced by interactions between skin layers, growth factors, and hormones, but the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.
research Hair follicle stem cell cultures reveal self‐organizing plasticity of stem cells and their progeny
The study showed that hair follicle stem cells can maintain and organize themselves in a lab setting, keeping their ability to renew and form hair and skin.
research Keratinocytes regulate the function of melanocytes
Keratinocytes control how melanocytes work.
research Organotypic Skin Culture
Organotypic culture systems can grow skin tissues that mimic real skin functions and are useful for skin disease and hair growth research, but they don't fully replicate skin complexity.
research Regulation of melanocyte stem cells in the pigmentation of skin and its appendages: Biological patterning and therapeutic potentials
Understanding how melanocyte stem cells work could lead to new treatments for hair graying and skin pigmentation disorders.
research Skin aging as a mechanical phenomenon: The main weak links
Skin aging is largely due to differences in stiffness and elasticity between skin layers, leading to wrinkles.
