research Stimulation by exosomes from hypoxia-preconditioned hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells facilitates mitophagy by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway to alleviate ulcerative colitis
Exosomes from special stem cells help treat ulcerative colitis by reducing inflammation and stress.
research Improvement in physicochemical parameters of DPPC liposomes and increase in skin permeation of aciclovir and minoxidil by the addition of cationic polymers
Cationic polymers improved liposome stability and increased skin absorption of aciclovir and minoxidil.
research TCF/Lef1-Mediated Control of Lipid Metabolism Regulates Skin Barrier Function
TCF/Lef1 is essential for skin barrier function by regulating lipid metabolism.
research Intestinal Intraepithelial Lymphocytes: Sentinels of the Mucosal Barrier
Intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes are crucial for gut immunity and maintaining the mucosal barrier.
research Tea Polyphenol–Zinc Nanocomplexes Alleviate Diquat-Induced Liver and Small Intestine Oxidative Stress in C57BL/6 Mice
Tea polyphenol–zinc helps protect the liver and intestines from oxidative stress.
research Epithelial Stem Cells: Turning over New Leaves
Epithelial stem cells are crucial for tissue renewal and repair, and understanding them could improve treatments for damage and cancer.
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‐to‐mesenchymal transition in cutaneous wound healing: Where we are and where we are heading
The document concludes that a better understanding of cell changes during wound healing could improve treatments for chronic wounds and other conditions.
research Tooth, hair and claw: Comparing epithelial stem cell niches of ectodermal appendages
The conclusion is that teeth, hair, and claws have similar stem cell niches, which are important for growth and repair, and more research is needed on their regulation and potential markers.
research ILK modulates epithelial polarity and matrix formation in hair follicles
ILK is essential for proper hair follicle development and structure.
research Scaffolds for epithelial and hair follicle regeneration
Electrospun matrices help regenerate skin and hair follicles using PCL and collagen scaffolds.
research Choreographing Immunity in the Skin Epithelial Barrier
The document concludes that the skin's immune system is complex, involving interactions with hair follicles, nerves, and microbes, and can protect or cause disease, offering targets for new treatments.
research Molecular Dissection of Mesenchymal–Epithelial Interactions in the Hair Follicle
Understanding gene expression in hair follicles can reveal insights into hair growth and disorders.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
research Hair, Cutaneous Homeostasis and Stem Cell Functions
Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research Stabilization of epithelial β-catenin compromises mammary cell fate acquisition and branching morphogenesis
Too much β-catenin activity can mess up the development of mammary glands and make them more like hair follicles.
research Mesenchymal–epithelial interactions during hair follicle morphogenesis and cycling
The conclusion is that certain cell interactions and signals are crucial for hair growth and regeneration.
research The Dermal Papilla: An Instructive Niche for Epithelial Stem and Progenitor Cells in Development and Regeneration of the Hair Follicle
The dermal papilla is crucial for hair growth and health, and understanding it could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research The Immune Functions of Keratinocytes in Skin Wound Healing
Keratinocytes help heal skin wounds by interacting with immune cells and producing substances that kill pathogens.
research Emerging nonmetabolic functions of skin fat
Skin fat has important roles in hair growth, skin repair, immune defense, and aging, and could be targeted for skin and hair treatments.
research Revisiting the significance of keratin expression in complex epithelia
Keratin genes change gradually during skin cell development and should be used carefully as biomarkers.
research Revisiting the significance of keratin expression in complex epithelia
