Tiny vesicles from stem cells could be a new treatment for healing wounds.
research Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin in Cutaneous Immune-Mediated Diseases
A protein called lfTSLP is important in causing allergic and other skin diseases and could be a target for treatment.
research Combined Deletion of the Vitamin D Receptor and Calcium-Sensing Receptor Delays Wound Re-epithelialization
Removing vitamin D and calcium receptors in mice skin cells slows down skin wound healing.
research Advanced therapies of skin injuries
New skin substitutes for treating severe burns and chronic wounds are being developed, but a permanent solution for deep wounds is not yet available commercially.
research The focal adhesion protein PINCH-1 associates with EPLIN at integrin adhesion sites
PINCH-1 is crucial for skin cell adhesion and movement, working with EPLIN and ILK.
research Damage of hair follicle stem cells and alteration of keratin expression in external radiation-induced acute alopecia
Radiation damages hair stem cells and changes keratin expression, with Krt5 as a potential marker for radiation effects.
research Urokinase is a Positive Regulator of Epidermal Proliferation In Vivo
Urokinase, a type of protein, helps skin cells multiply faster, especially in newborn mice.
research Partial Purification and Characterization of Two Distinct Types of Caspases from Human Epidermis
Two distinct caspases in human skin help with cell death and skin formation.
research Hairless Modulates Ligand-Dependent Activation of the Vitamin D Receptor-Retinoid X Receptor Heterodimer
Hairless protein can both repress and activate vitamin D receptor functions, affecting gene regulation.
research Smad4-dependent desmoglein-4 expression contributes to hair follicle integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
research Inactivation of autophagy leads to changes in sebaceous gland morphology and function
Autophagy is crucial for normal sebaceous gland function and sebum composition.
research Mind the Gap: Sex Bias in Basic Skin Research
The document concludes that there is a significant lack of reporting on the sex and age of cells in skin research, which could affect clinical trials and treatments.
research Field Cancerization: From Molecular Basis to Selective Field-Directed Management of Actinic Keratosis
Photodynamic therapy is the preferred treatment for skin precancer due to its effectiveness and safety.
research MicroRNA in skin diseases
Certain microRNAs are linked to various skin diseases and could be used to diagnose and treat these conditions.
research Clinical, histopathologic, immunohistochemical, and electron microscopic findings in cutaneous monkeypox: A multicenter retrospective case series in Spain
Monkeypox skin lesions show full-thickness skin death and swollen skin cells, with the virus found in affected cells.
research Activation of β-Catenin Signaling in CD133-Positive Dermal Papilla Cells Drives Postnatal Hair Growth
Activating β-catenin in certain skin cells speeds up hair growth in mice.
research Biochemistry of epidermal stem cells
The review found that different stem cell types in the skin are crucial for repair and could help treat skin diseases and cancer.
research Suppression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling by EGF receptor is required for hair follicle development
Blocking Wnt/β-catenin signaling with EGF receptor is necessary for proper hair growth.
research The Vitamin D Receptor Is Required for Mouse Hair Cycle Progression but not for Maintenance of the Epidermal Stem Cell Compartment
Vitamin D Receptor is needed for hair growth in mice but not for skin stem cell maintenance.
research Localization of varicella-zoster virus nucleic acids and proteins in human skin
The research found that chickenpox virus spreads in skin through blood then to skin cells, while shingles virus moves from nerves to hair follicle areas before infecting skin cells.
research Overexpression of human keratin 16 produces a distinct skin phenotype in transgenic mouse skin
High levels of human keratin 16 in mice cause skin lesions and abnormal skin development.
research Cholesterol homeostasis: Links to hair follicle biology and hair disorders
Cholesterol balance is important for hair health, and problems with it can lead to hair loss conditions.
