Fetal-maternal stem cells in a mother's hair can help with tissue repair and regeneration long after childbirth.
research Alginate and its application to tissue engineering
Alginate is great for tissue engineering because it's safe, easy to use, and helps heal tissues.
research Identification of the cell lineage at the origin of basal cell carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research Hair follicle aging is driven by transepidermal elimination of stem cells via COL17A1 proteolysis
Hair loss and aging are caused by the breakdown of a key protein in hair stem cells.
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 The hairless gene mutated in congenital hair loss disorders encodes a novel nuclear receptor corepressor
