990-1000 / 1000+ resultsresearch Regulation of adult stem cell quiescence and its functions in the maintenance of tissue integrity
Quiescent adult stem cells are crucial for tissue repair and maintenance.
research Role of insulin, insulin‐like growth factor‐1, hyperglycaemic food and milk consumption in the pathogenesis of acne vulgaris
Eating high-glycemic foods and drinking milk may worsen acne by increasing insulin and IGF-1 levels.
research Sebum Free Fatty Acids Enhance the Innate Immune Defense of Human Sebocytes by Upregulating β-Defensin-2 Expression
Free fatty acids in sebum boost skin's defense against acne by increasing antimicrobial peptides.
research Evidence that Myc activation depletes the epidermal stem cell compartment by modulating adhesive interactions with the local microenvironment
Myc activation reduces skin stem cells by affecting cell adhesion.
research Tracking adult stem cells
A combined approach is needed to fully understand adult stem cells, with genetic lineage-tracing being crucial.
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 Independent genomewide screens identify the tumor suppressor VTRNA2-1 as a human epiallele responsive to periconceptional environment
The environment around the time of conception can change the VTRNA2-1 gene in a way that lasts for years and may affect disease risk.
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 Type XVII collagen coordinates proliferation in the interfollicular epidermis
Type XVII collagen helps control skin cell growth and could be a target for anti-aging treatments.
