840-870 / 1000+ resultsresearch Patterns of expression of trichocytic and epithelial cytokeratins in mammalian tissues. I. Human and bovine hair follicles
Human and bovine hair follicles have distinct cytokeratins specific to hair-forming cells.
research 1335 Maintenance of epidermal progenitor function through the mRNA degradation and translation pathways
The protein DDX6 helps keep skin cells renewing properly by controlling the production of certain other proteins and breaking down those that cause cells to mature too quickly.
research Location and fine structure of melanocytes in human fetal scalp hair follicles.
Melanocytes in the outer root sheath are likely stem cells that grow fast but stay immature.
research In Vitro Differences Between Keratinocyte Stem Cells and Transit-Amplifying Cells of the Human Hair Follicle
Hair follicle stem cells have greater longevity and adhesion, while transit-amplifying cells are more mobile.
research HaCaT keratinocytes express functional receptors for thyroid-stimulating hormone
Human skin cells can respond to thyroid-stimulating hormone, affecting hair and skin health.
research LB1076 Using the frog embryonic epidermis as a model to study desmosome function during development
Frog skin cells need the protein desmoplakin for proper development and cell layer formation.
research In vitro interactions between sensory nerves, epidermis, hair follicles and capillaries in a tissue‐engineered reconstructed skin
The model effectively studies how sensory nerves interact with skin components, aiding research on wound healing and hair growth.
research Single-cell transcriptomics defines keratinocyte differentiation in avian scutate scales
The research identified two types of keratinocytes in chicken scales: one for hard scales and another for soft skin, with similarities to human skin differentiation.
research Regenerating the skin: a task for the heterogeneous stem cell pool and surrounding niche
Different types of stem cells and their environments are key to skin repair and maintenance.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research O04 HPV8 E6 leads to Lrig1+ keratinocyte stem cell expansion
HPV8 E6 gene causes growth of certain skin stem cells.

research Normal histology of the skin
The skin has two main layers, the epidermis and dermis, which work together and are essential for diagnosing skin conditions.
research Localization of Merkel cells at hairless and hairy human skin sites using keratin 18
Merkel cells are more densely found in hairless skin areas like palms and soles.
research Keratin 75 Is a Component of the LINC Complex and Has an Essential Role in Mediating the SOX2 Rapid Healing Response during Wound Repair
Keratin 75 is important for fast wound healing and works with SOX2 and the LINC complex to help skin cells move and repair damage.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Delayed Wound Healing in Keratin 6a Knockout Mice
Keratin 6a is important for quick wound healing from hair follicles.
