research Cutaneous adverse effects of targeted therapies
Targeted cancer therapies often cause serious skin problems that need careful management.
research Epithelial stem cells and implications for wound repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
research Overexpression of Smad7 results in severe pathological alterations in multiple epithelial tissues
Too much Smad7 can cause serious changes in skin tissues, including problems with hair growth, thymus shrinkage, and eye development issues.
research Overexpression of Hedgehog Signaling Is Associated with Epidermal Tumor Formation in Vitamin D Receptor–Null Mice
Lack of vitamin D receptor increases skin tumor risk by boosting hedgehog signaling.
research Effects of EGF on the Morphology and Patterns of DNA Synthesis in Isolated Human Hair Follicles
EGF makes hair follicles grow longer but stops hair production.
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 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 Epidermal expression of the truncated prelamin A causing Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome: effects on keratinocytes, hair and skin
Progerin affects cell shape but not hair or skin in mice.
research Hair Growth Induction: Roles of Growth Factors
EGF and FGF help hair growth by affecting cell differentiation and fiber growth.
research Epidermal Growth Factor Promotes Proliferation and Migration of Follicular Outer Root Sheath Cells via Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling
Epidermal Growth Factor helps hair follicle cells grow and move by activating a specific cell signaling pathway.
research Stem cells in embryonic skin development
The origins of many adult skin stem cells are still mostly unknown.
research The Cutaneous Epidermal Growth Factor Network: Can it be Translated Clinically to Stimulate Hair Growth?
Understanding EGFR roles could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research GRHL3 binding and enhancers rearrange as epidermal keratinocytes transition between functional states
GRHL3 is important for controlling gene activity in skin cells during different stages of their development.
research Conditional knock out of N-WASP in keratinocytes causes skin barrier defects and atopic dermatitis-like inflammation
N-WASP is essential for healthy skin and preventing inflammation.
research Harnessing neuroendocrine controls of keratin expression: A new therapeutic strategy for skin diseases?
Using neurohormones to control keratin can lead to new skin disease treatments.
research PTEN Mediates Activation of Core Clock Protein BMAL1 and Accumulation of Epidermal Stem Cells
PTEN helps control the number and health of skin stem cells by working with the protein BMAL1.
research Cutaneous wound healing: canine allogeneic ASC therapy
Using stem cells from fat tissue can significantly improve wound healing in dogs.
research The early changes in mouse skin following topical application of a range of middle distillate oil products
Different oil products cause varying levels of skin irritation in mice, which could potentially lead to tumors.
research Alginate-Based Hydrogel Containing Minoxidil/Hydroxypropyl-β-Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complex for Topical Alopecia Treatment
A new gel containing minoxidil can treat hair loss effectively, potentially reducing side effects and improving treatment.
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 YAP/TAZ Signalling Controls Epidermal Keratinocyte Fate
YAP and TAZ proteins control skin cell growth and repair.
research Conditional Knockout in Mice Reveals the Critical Roles of Ppp2ca in Epidermis Development
PP2Acα is essential for proper hair and skin development.
research The Epithelial Stem Cell Niche in Skin
