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 Polymeric nanoparticles‐based topical delivery systems for the treatment of dermatological diseases
Polymeric nanoparticles show promise for treating skin diseases.
research APCDD1 is a novel Wnt inhibitor mutated in hereditary hypotrichosis simplex
A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.
research An Integrated Transcriptome Atlas of Embryonic Hair Follicle Progenitors, Their Niche, and the Developing Skin
The study identified unique genes in hair follicle cells and their environment, suggesting these genes help organize cells for hair growth.
research Hair Follicle Development in Mouse Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Skin Organoids
Scientists grew hair follicles from mouse stem cells in a lab setting.
research Cyclooxygenases in the skin: pharmacological and toxicological implications
Blocking COX, especially COX-2, in the skin can reduce inflammation and pain and may help prevent skin cancer.
research Hairy tale of signaling in hair follicle development and cycling
Hair growth and development are controlled by specific signaling pathways.
research Plasticity and Cytokinetic Dynamics of the Hair Follicle Mesenchyme: Implications for Hair Growth Control
Hair growth is influenced by dynamic changes in hair follicle cells, which could help treat hair loss.
research Sic Transit Gloria: Farewell to the Epidermal Transit Amplifying Cell?
New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.
research WNT Signaling in Disease
The WNT signaling pathway is important in many diseases and targeting it could offer new treatments.
research CD34 Expression by Hair Follicle Stem Cells Is Required for Skin Tumor Development in Mice
CD34 is crucial for skin tumor development in mice.
research Potential of Nanoparticles as Permeation Enhancers and Targeted Delivery Options for Skin: Advantages and Disadvantages
Nanoparticles can improve skin drug delivery but have challenges like toxicity and stability that need more research.
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 dsRNA Released by Tissue Damage Activates TLR3 to Drive Skin Regeneration
Damage to skin releases dsRNA, which activates TLR3 and helps in skin and hair follicle regeneration.
research Regulatory T Cells: the Many Faces of Foxp3
Foxp3 is crucial for regulatory T cell function, and targeting these cells may help treat immune disorders.
research Selenoproteins Are Essential for Proper Keratinocyte Function and Skin Development
Selenoproteins are crucial for healthy skin and hair.
research The Human Hair Follicle: A Reservoir of CD40+ B7-Deficient Langerhans Cells that Repopulate Epidermis After UVB Exposure
Hair follicles help skin immune recovery after UVB exposure.
research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research WNT10A mutation causes ectodermal dysplasia by impairing progenitor cell proliferation and KLF4-mediated differentiation
A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.
research Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Thyroid Axis Hormones Stimulate Mitochondrial Function and Biogenesis in Human Hair Follicles
HPT axis hormones boost mitochondrial function and growth in hair follicles, potentially aiding hair health.
research Human Female Hair Follicles Are a Direct, Nonclassical Target for Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone
Thyroid-stimulating hormone affects hair follicles but doesn't change hair growth or color.
research Corneodesmosin gene ablation induces lethal skin-barrier disruption and hair-follicle degeneration related to desmosome dysfunction
Deleting the CDSN gene causes severe skin and hair problems, leading to death.
