research Epidermal Development in Mammals: Key Regulators, Signals from Beneath, and Stem Cells
Skin development in mammals is controlled by key proteins and signals from underlying cells, involving stem cells for maintenance and repair.
research Extracellular Matrix as a Regulator of Epidermal Stem Cell Fate
The extracellular matrix is crucial for controlling skin stem cell behavior and health.
research Skin Keratins
Keratins are important for skin cell health and their problems can cause diseases.
research JMJD3 and NF-κB-dependent activation of Notch1 gene is required for keratinocyte migration during skin wound healing
JMJD3 and NF-κB activate Notch1, which is essential for skin cell movement and wound healing.
research Targeted Disruption of Stat3 Reveals a Major Role for Follicular Stem Cells in Skin Tumor Initiation
Disrupting Stat3 in hair follicle stem cells greatly reduces skin tumor formation.
research α3β1-integrin regulates hair follicle but not interfollicular morphogenesis in adult epidermis
α3β1-integrin is crucial for maintaining normal hair follicle shape and function but not needed for the development of the surrounding skin.
research Stem cells in embryonic skin development
The origins of many adult skin stem cells are still mostly unknown.
research Eph/ephrin signaling in epidermal differentiation and disease
Eph/ephrin signaling is important for skin cell behavior and could be targeted to treat skin diseases.
research Regulation of melanocyte stem cells in the pigmentation of skin and its appendages: Biological patterning and therapeutic potentials
Understanding how melanocyte stem cells work could lead to new treatments for hair graying and skin pigmentation disorders.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research The distributions of type IV collagen .ALPHA. chains in basement membranes of human epidermis and skin appendages
Type IV collagen chains vary in different parts of human skin, with specific patterns linked to melanocytes.
research Endogenous human skin equivalent promotes in vitro morphogenesis of follicle-like structures
Endo-HSE helps grow hair-like structures from human skin cells in the lab.
research Mapping the molecular and structural specialization of the skin basement membrane for inter-tissue interactions
The skin's basement membrane has specialized structures and molecules for different tissue interactions, important for hair growth and attachment.
research Skin disease in pregnancy
Pregnancy can change skin disease severity, with some conditions improving and others worsening, and treatment should balance benefits and fetal safety.
research Dermatoses of pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause specific skin conditions that need correct diagnosis and treatment to protect both mother and baby.
research Thyroxine (T4) may promote re-epithelialisation and angiogenesis in wounded human skin ex vivo
Thyroxine (T4) may help heal skin wounds by promoting new skin and blood vessel growth.
research Biochemistry of epidermal stem cells
The review found that different stem cell types in the skin are crucial for repair and could help treat skin diseases and cancer.
research Safe Selection of Genetically Manipulated Human Primary Keratinocytes with Very High Growth Potential Using CD24
Researchers found a safe and effective way to pick genetically modified skin cells with high growth potential using CD24.
research The Genetics of Human Skin Disease
Genetic research has advanced our understanding of skin diseases, but complex conditions require an integrative approach for deeper insight.
research Thyroid diseases and skin autoimmunity
Thyroid diseases may contribute to autoimmune skin diseases, and more research is needed on their relationship.
research Skin disease in pregnancy
Some skin conditions are common during pregnancy and can be safely treated without affecting the pregnancy outcome.
research Multifunctional Merkel cells: Their roles in electromagnetic reception, finger-print formation, Reiki, epigenetic inheritance and hair form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research Proposing a Simpler Classification of Telogen Effluvium
Alfredo Rebora suggested a new, easier way to classify hair loss in Telogen Effluvium, adding a type possibly related to autoimmune diseases.
research Secondary cicatricial and other permanent alopecias
The document says that treating the root cause of hair follicle damage is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss, and treatment options vary.
research Regeneration of Hair Follicles Is Modulated by Flightless I (Flii) in a Rodent Vibrissa Model
Flightless I protein affects hair growth, with low levels delaying it and high levels increasing hair length in rodents.
research Increased Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) in the Sera of Patients with Extensive Alopecia Areata
Patients with severe alopecia areata have higher levels of MIF, which decrease after successful treatment.
research Flightless I exacerbation of inflammatory responses contributes to increased colonic damage in a mouse model of dextran sulphate sodium-induced ulcerative colitis
High levels of the protein Flightless I worsen ulcerative colitis symptoms in mice.
research Re-investigating the Basement Membrane Zone of Psoriatic Epidermal Lesions: Is Laminin-511 a New Player in Psoriasis Pathogenesis?
Laminin-511 may contribute to psoriasis by affecting skin cell growth and survival.
research Cytoskeletal Regulation of Dermal Regeneration
Targeting the actin cytoskeleton could improve skin healing and reduce scarring.
