Lamins are vital for cell survival, organ development, and preventing premature aging.
research Multi-potentiality of a new immortalized epithelial stem cell line derived from human hair follicles
Scientists created a long-lasting stem cell line from human hair that can turn into different skin and hair cell types.
research Function of KLF4 in Stem Cell Biology
KLF4 is important for maintaining stem cells and has potential in cancer treatment and wound healing.
research Macrophages Contribute to the Cyclic Activation of Adult Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Macrophages help activate hair follicle stem cells, affecting hair growth and skin repair.
research The silver locus product (Silv/gp100/Pmel17) as a new tool for the analysis of melanosome transfer in human melanocyte–keratinocyte co‐culture
The new assay can track and measure melanosome transfer between skin cells, confirming filopodia's role in this process.
research Stem cell plasticity enables hair regeneration following Lgr5+ cell loss
Hair can regrow after certain stem cells are lost because other stem cells can take over their role.
research Stimulation of the Follicular Bulge LGR5+ and LGR6+ Stem Cells with the Gut-Derived Human Alpha Defensin 5 Results in Decreased Bacterial Presence, Enhanced Wound Healing, and Hair Growth from Tissues Devoid of Adnexal Structures
Human alpha defensin 5 helps heal wounds, reduce bacteria, and grow hair on burned skin.
research The balance of Bmp6 and Wnt10b regulates the telogen-anagen transition of hair follicles
BMP6 and Wnt10b control whether hair follicles are resting or growing.
research The CD44+ALDH+ Population of Human Keratinocytes Is Enriched for Epidermal Stem Cells with Long-Term Repopulating Ability
Certain human skin cells marked by CD44 and ALDH are rich in stem cells capable of long-term skin renewal.
research Combinatorial expression of cell cycle regulators is more suitable for immortalization than oncogenic methods in dermal papilla cells
Using a combination of specific cell cycle regulators is better for safely keeping hair root cells alive indefinitely compared to cancer-related methods.
research Characterization of Primary Cilia and Intraflagellar Transport 20 in the Epidermis
Ift20 is essential for hair follicle function and skin cell movement.
research Light-Emitting Hair Follicles: Studying Skin Regeneration With In Vivo Imaging
Scientists developed tools to observe hair regeneration in real time and assess skin health, using glowing mice and light-controlled genes.
research Downregulation of nuclear factor-kappaB activation in human keratinocytes by melanogenesis inhibitors
Melanogenesis inhibitors like kojic acid and niacinamide can reduce inflammation and pigment production in skin cells.
research Abstracts
Mice treatments didn't grow hair, a patient treatment may affect immune response, and people with hair loss often feel anxious or depressed.
research A matter of life and death: self‐renewal in stem cells
Stem cell self-renewal is complex and needs more research for full understanding.
research Immunofluorescence Tomography: High-resolution 3-D reconstruction by serial-sectioning of methacrylate embedded tissues and alignment of 2-D immunofluorescence images
Immunofluorescence tomography is a cost-effective method for creating detailed 3-D images of tissues.
research In vivo Quantification of the Effects of Radiation and Presence of Hair Follicle Pores on the Proliferation of Fibroblasts in an Acellular Human Dermis in a Dorsal Skinfold Chamber: Relevance for Tissue Reconstruction following Neoadjuvant Therapy
Hair follicle pores help cell survival and growth, even after radiation.
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 Expression patterns of three estrogen receptor genes during zebrafish (Danio rerio) development: evidence for high expression in neuromasts
The three estrogen receptor genes are highly expressed in zebrafish neuromasts during development.
research Squalene-Containing Nanostructured Lipid Carriers Promote Percutaneous Absorption and Hair Follicle Targeting of Diphencyprone for Treating Alopecia Areata
Squalene-based carriers improve delivery of a treatment to hair follicles for alopecia areata.
research Changing the shape of hair with keratin peptides
Keratin peptides can change hair shape gently without harsh chemicals.

Surface-modified nanoparticles mainly use non-follicular pathways to enhance skin permeation of ibuprofen and could improve treatment for inflammatory skin diseases.
research Transient mitochondrial DNA double strand breaks in mice cause accelerated aging phenotypes in a ROS-dependent but p53/p21-independent manner
Damaging mitochondrial DNA in mice speeds up aging due to increased reactive oxygen species, not through the p53/p21 pathway.
research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.
