research Emerging interactions between skin stem cells and their niches
Skin stem cells interacting with their environment is crucial for maintaining and regenerating skin and hair, and understanding this can help develop new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research Ectopic Expression of the nude Gene Induces Hyperproliferation and Defects in Differentiation: Implications for the Self-Renewal of Cutaneous Epithelia
The nude gene causes skin cell overgrowth and improper development, leading to hair and urinary issues.
research The Vitamin D Receptor as Tumor Suppressor in Skin
Vitamin D and its receptor may help prevent skin cancer.
research Genetically-manipulated adult stem cells as therapeutic agents and gene delivery vehicle for wound repair and regeneration
Genetically-altered adult stem cells can help in wound healing and are becoming crucial in regenerative medicine and drug design.
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 HPV8 Field Cancerization in a Transgenic Mouse Model Is due to Lrig1+ Keratinocyte Stem Cell Expansion
HPV8 causes skin cancer by expanding specific skin stem cells.
research Inherited disorders of the skin in human and mouse: from development to differentiation.
Research on skin disorders in humans and mice has improved understanding of hair and skin development.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The skin has multiple layers and cells, serves as a protective barrier, helps regulate temperature, enables sensation, affects appearance, and is involved in vitamin D synthesis.
research Skin biology
Current therapies cannot fully regenerate adult skin without scars; more research is needed for scar-free healing.
research Lineage potential, plasticity and environmental reprogramming of epithelial stem/progenitor cells
Environmental cues can change the fate and function of epithelial cells, with potential for cell therapy.
research Erythroid Differentiation Regulator 1 as a Novel Biomarker for Hair Loss Disorders
Erdr1 could be a new marker for diagnosing hair loss.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Transgenic mice provide new insights into the role of TGF-alpha during epidermal development and differentiation.
TGF-alpha affects skin thickness, hair growth, and may contribute to psoriasis and papilloma formation.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Apoptosis in human skin development: Morphogenesis, periderm, and stem cells
Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.
research Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) Is Required for Normal Development of Skin and Thymus
The Apc gene is crucial for normal skin and thymus development.
research The Effect of Autologous Activated Platelet Rich Plasma (AA-PRP) Injection on Pattern Hair Loss: Clinical and Histomorphometric Evaluation
AA-PRP injections effectively increase hair count and thickness for male pattern hair loss.
research Deregulated expression of E2F1 induces hyperplasia and cooperates with ras in skin tumor development
Overexpression of E2F1 can lead to skin tumors and disrupt hair growth.
research Epidermal Wnt/β-catenin signaling regulates adipocyte differentiation via secretion of adipogenic factors
Epidermal Wnt/β-catenin signaling controls fat cell formation and hair growth.
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 Reprogramming adult dermis to a neonatal state through epidermal activation of β-catenin
Activating a protein called β-catenin in adult skin can make it behave like young skin, potentially helping with skin aging and hair loss.
research Human Peptidylarginine Deiminase Type III: Molecular Cloning and Nucleotide Sequence of the cDNA, Properties of the Recombinant Enzyme, and Immunohistochemical Localization in Human Skin
PAD3 plays a key role in hair and skin protein structure and may be linked to skin diseases.
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 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 Differentiation of Mouse Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells into a Multipotent Keratinocyte Lineage
Scientists turned mouse stem cells into skin cells that can grow into skin layers and structures.
research Patterns of desmocollin synthesis in human epithelia: immunolocalization of desmocollins 1 and 3 in special epithelia and in cultured cells.
Desmocollin 1 and 3 have distinct patterns in human tissues, with Dsc1 in specific skin and hair layers and Dsc3 in various epithelial layers.
research Increased expression of keratin 16 causes anomalies in cytoarchitecture and keratinization in transgenic mouse skin.
Too much keratin 16 in mice skin causes abnormal skin thickening and structure.
