research 50285 Oxytocin receptor is present in keratinocytes near touch and pain sensory neurons
Oxytocin receptors are found in skin cells near touch and pain neurons.
research The Arrector Pili Muscle and the Follicular Unit of the Scalp: A Microscopic Anatomy Study
The study found that hair follicles are above muscle connections in the scalp, which may help protect stem cell areas.
research Biochemical and Ultrastructural Processing of [125I]Epidermal Growth Factor in Rat Epidermis and Hair Follicles: Accumulation of Nuclear Label
research Human epidermal neural crest stem cells as a source of Schwann cells
Human Schwann cells can be quickly made from hair follicle stem cells for nerve repair.
research Keratin expression in the normal nail unit: markers of regional differentiation
Different parts of the nail express different keratins, showing unique patterns of differentiation.
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 A Novel Epithelial Keratin, hK6irs1, is Expressed Differentially in All Layers of the Inner Root Sheath, Including Specialized Huxley Cells (Flügelzellen) of the Human Hair Follicle
A new keratin, hK6irs1, is found in all layers of the hair follicle's inner root sheath.
research Multipotent nestin-positive, keratin-negative hair-follicle bulge stem cells can form neurons
Hair-follicle stem cells can become neurons.
research Responses of type II spiral ganglion neurites to stripes of laminin and fibronectin
Type II spiral ganglion neurites avoid high concentrations of laminin and fibronectin.
research Epidermal Nevi
Epidermal nevi are skin cell clusters linked to various syndromes.
research Photoablation at single cell resolution and its application in the Drosophila epidermis and peripheral nervous system
The method allows precise cell removal without harming nearby tissues.
research 564 Subpopulations of dermal fibroblasts produce distinct extracellular matrices
Different types of skin cells create unique support structures that can affect skin cell growth and could help in skin repair.
research Human Dermal Fibroblasts Demonstrate Positive Immunostaining for Neuron- and Glia- Specific Proteins
Fibroblasts can be mistaken for neural cells, so functional validation is needed.
research Histochemical studies on cutaneous stem cells in human fetal skin
Basal layer skin cells help form the epidermis and hair follicles.
research High spatial resolution study of human skin using synchrotron infrared microscopy: application to the penetration of external agents
External agents penetrate skin more easily in areas with fewer lipids, especially through hair follicles.
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 Location of keratin-associated proteins in developing fiber cuticle cells using immunoelectron microscopy
Keratin-associated proteins are part of the developing hair fiber cuticle.
research Construction of Tissue-Engineered Nerve Conduits Seeded with Neurons Derived from Hair-Follicle Neural Crest Stem Cells
Neurons from hair follicles can help repair damaged nerves.
research Specific Inhibition of Hair Follicle Formation by Epidermal Growth Factor in an Organ Culture of Developing Mouse Skin
research 560 Isolation of an “early” transit amplifying keratinocyte population in interfollicular human epidermis: a role for CD271 receptor
Scientists found a new type of skin cell that could help with skin repair and these cells work better with a certain protein.
research Rat Hair Follicle Dermal Papillae Have an Extracellular Matrix Containing Basement Membrane Components
research Hair matrix germinative epidermal cells confer follicle-inducing capabilities on dermal sheath and high passage papilla cells
Hair growth can be stimulated by combining certain skin cells, which can rejuvenate old cells and cause them to specialize in hair follicle creation.
research Distribution of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors in Rat Tissues During Embryonic Skin Development, Hair Formation, and the Adult Hair Growth Cycle
research Keratin 16 Expression Defines a Subset of Epithelial Cells During Skin Morphogenesis and the Hair Cycle
research Histochemistry of the human hair follicle with consideration of anagen phases I to VI
Human hair follicles have a unique cell distribution and differentiation pattern during growth.
research 174 Dermis-hair follicle communication: Extracellular microvesicles signaling for hair regeneration
Tiny particles from skin cells can help activate hair growth.
research A subpopulation of itch‐sensing neurons marked by Ret and somatostatin expression
Scientists found a specific group of itch-sensing nerve cells in mice important for feeling itch but not for sensing heat or touch.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research Adaptations in the structure and innervation of follicle‐sinus complexes to an aquatic environment as seen in the Florida manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris)
Manatee whiskers are specially adapted for touch in water.
