research Live imaging of stem cells: answering old questions and raising new ones
Live imaging has advanced our understanding of stem cell behavior and raised new research questions.
research Identification of an Intronic Regulatory Element Necessary for Tissue-Specific Expression of Foxn1 in Thymic Epithelial Cells
A specific DNA region is crucial for Foxn1 gene expression in thymus cells but not in hair follicles.
research Stem cells and the circadian clock
The circadian clock influences the behavior and regeneration of stem cells in the body.
research The Role of Adipocytes in Tissue Regeneration and Stem Cell Niches
Fat cells are important for tissue repair and stem cell support in various body parts.
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 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 Overactivated sonic hedgehog signaling aggravates intrauterine adhesion via inhibiting autophagy in endometrial stromal cells
Overactive sonic hedgehog signaling worsens uterine scarring by reducing cell recycling.
research Induction of osteoblastic differentiation of neural crest-derived stem cells from hair follicles
Hair follicle cells can become bone-like cells, useful for bone repair.
research Lineage potential, plasticity and environmental reprogramming of epithelial stem/progenitor cells
Environmental cues can change the fate and function of epithelial cells, with potential for cell therapy.
research 606 Connecting signaling dynamics with cell fates in live mice
Stem cells control their future role by changing ERK signal timing, affecting tissue regeneration and cancer.
research Coordinated Activation of Wnt in Epithelial and Melanocyte Stem Cells Initiates Pigmented Hair Regeneration
Wnt signaling is crucial for pigmented hair regeneration by controlling stem cell activation and differentiation.
research YAP and TAZ are essential for basal and squamous cell carcinoma initiation
YAP and TAZ proteins are necessary for the development of two types of skin cancer.
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 Stabilization of epithelial β-catenin compromises mammary cell fate acquisition and branching morphogenesis
Too much β-catenin activity can mess up the development of mammary glands and make them more like hair follicles.
research WNT10A mutation causes ectodermal dysplasia by impairing progenitor cell proliferation and KLF4-mediated differentiation
A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.
research Multi-scale spatial mapping of cell populations across anatomical sites in healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma
The research created a detailed map of skin cells, showing that certain cells in basal cell carcinoma may come from hair follicles and could help the cancer grow.
