research Defining the transcriptional signature of esophageal-to-skin lineage conversion
Adult esophageal cells can start to become like skin cells, with a key pathway influencing this change.
research Human basal cell carcinoma: the induction of anagen hair follicle differentiation
Basal cell carcinomas may differentiate similarly to hair follicles and could be influenced by hair cycle-related treatments.
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 Skin-resident immune cells actively coordinate their distribution with epidermal cells during homeostasis
Skin cells control immune cell placement, helping the skin respond better to challenges.
research The Functional Organization of Cutaneous Low-Threshold Mechanosensory Neurons
Different hair follicles in the skin are innervated by unique combinations of mechanosensory neurons, crucial for touch sensation.
research The combination of hair follicle-specific marker LHX2 and co-expressed marker can distinguish between sweat gland placodes and hair placodes in rat
LHX2, with other markers, can identify hair placodes in rats.
research Expression of Uncoupling Proteins in Human Skin and Skin-Derived Cells
research 918 Skin morphogenesis by coupling biochemical-bioelectric signals: Calcium oscillations coordinate dermal cell movement by epidermis-derived SHH signaling during feather bud orientation
Calcium signals and SHH guide the direction of feather growth in chicken skin.
research Krox20 in epithelial and glial stem cells and their niches
Krox20 is important for cell differentiation in the brain and hair follicles.
research Spatiotemporal dynamics of sensory neuron and Merkel-cell remodeling are decoupled during epidermal homeostasis
Merkel cells stabilize nerve endings in the skin, and they change independently of each other.
research Developing stratified epithelia: lessons from the epidermis and thymus
The skin and thymus develop similarly to protect and support immunity.
research Expansion and characterization of epithelial stem cells with potential for cyclical hair regeneration
A specific group of stem cells can help regenerate hair continuously.
research Single-Cell RNA Profiling of Human Skin Reveals Age-Related Loss of Dermal Sheath Cells and Their Contribution to a Juvenile Phenotype
Aging reduces dermal sheath cells, affecting youthful skin appearance.
research Beyond the Epidermal-Melanin-Unit: The Human Scalp Anagen Hair Bulb Is Home to Multiple Melanocyte Subpopulations of Variable Melanogenic Capacity
The human scalp hair bulb contains different types of melanocytes with varying abilities to produce melanin.
research Characterization of the epidermal-dermal junction in hiPSC-derived skin organoids
The study created hair-bearing skin models that lack a key protein for skin layer attachment, limiting their use for certain skin disease research.
research 613 Assessment of the induction and morphogenic potential of human hair matrix cells and dermal papilla fibroblasts ex vivo
Human hair matrix cells and dermal papilla fibroblasts can form early hair follicle structures but don't produce hair shafts yet.
research Effect of CUX1 on the Proliferation of Hu Sheep Dermal Papilla Cells and on the Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway
CUX1 boosts sheep hair cell growth and affects curl patterns.
research Pathogenic CD8+ T cells target K71+ Henle’s layer by forming cytolytic immune synapses in Alopecia Areata
research Epidermal structure created by canine hair follicle keratinocytes enriched with bulge cells in a three‐dimensional skin equivalent model in vitro: implications for regenerative therapy of canine epidermis
Keratinocytes from dog hair follicles can create a functional skin layer in a lab model, useful for dog skin therapy.
research Expression of anti-aging type-XVII collagen (COL17A1/BP180) in hair follicle-associated pluripotent (HAP) stem cells during differentiation
Hair stem cells produce a protein called COL17A1 that plays a key role in their development and is linked to hair thinning and baldness.
research Hair follicles’ transit-amplifying cells govern concurrent dermal adipocyte production through Sonic Hedgehog
Cells in hair follicles help create fat cells in the skin by releasing a protein called Sonic Hedgehog.
research Limbal microenvironment can induce transdifferentiation of hair follicle stem cells into corneal epithelial‐like cells
Hair follicle stem cells can become corneal-like cells with the right environment.
research Label Retaining Cells (LRCs) with Myoepithelial Characteristic from the Proximal Acinar Region Define Stem Cells in the Sweat Gland
Sweat gland stem cells help maintain glands, aid wound healing, and can regenerate skin structures.
research Skin Cell Heterogeneity in Development, Wound Healing, and Cancer
Different types of skin cells play specific roles in development, healing, and cancer.
research SP1 and KROX20 Regulate the Proliferation of Dermal Papilla Cells and Target the CUX1 Gene
