research Rapid Genetic Analysis of Epithelial-Mesenchymal Signaling During Hair Regeneration
The method quickly analyzes hair growth genes and shows that blocking Smo in skin cells stops hair growth.
research 812 Multi-view light sheet florescence microscopy (LSFM) for imaging cellular self-assembly in spheroids of human hair follicle dermal papilla cells and keratinocytes
The technique effectively shows how human skin and hair cells form into ball-like structures.
research Exposure to non-ionizing electromagnetic fields emitted from mobile phones induced DNA damage in human ear canal hair follicle cells
Mobile phone radiation may cause DNA damage in human ear hair follicle cells.
research The disintegrin/metalloproteinase Adam10 is essential for epidermal integrity and Notch-mediated signaling
Adam10 enzyme is crucial for healthy skin and proper Notch signaling.
research Epidermal Stem Cells Are Defined by Global Histone Modifications that Are Altered by Myc-Induced Differentiation
Myc changes chromatin in stem cells, causing them to leave their niche.
research Human skin stem cells and the ageing process
Skin aging is due to impaired stem cell mobilization or fewer responsive stem cells.
research Cell-Type-Specific Chromatin States Differentially Prime Squamous Cell Carcinoma Tumor-Initiating Cells for Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition
Different types of skin cells have unique genetic markers that affect how likely they are to spread cancer.
research Prolactin Signaling Influences the Timing Mechanism of the Hair Follicle: Analysis of Hair Growth Cycles in Prolactin Receptor Knockout Mice*
Prolactin affects when mice shed and grow hair.
research Ectopic Expression of the nude Gene Induces Hyperproliferation and Defects in Differentiation: Implications for the Self-Renewal of Cutaneous Epithelia
The nude gene causes skin cell overgrowth and improper development, leading to hair and urinary issues.
research Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone (TRH) Promotes Wound Re-Epithelialisation in Frog and Human Skin
Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone helps heal wounds in frog and human skin.
research Eph/ephrin signaling in epidermal differentiation and disease
Eph/ephrin signaling is important for skin cell behavior and could be targeted to treat skin diseases.
research Alopecia in Epidermolysis Bullosa
The document suggests that certain protein deficiencies and scalp blistering in Epidermolysis Bullosa may cause hair loss.
research Transgenic Flash Mice for In Vivo Quantitative Monitoring of Canonical Wnt Signaling to Track Hair Follicle Cycle Dynamics
Researchers developed a mouse model that tracks hair growth using bioluminescence, improving accuracy in studying hair cycles.
research Prolactin Signaling Influences the Timing Mechanism of the Hair Follicle: Analysis of Hair Growth Cycles in Prolactin Receptor Knockout Mice
Prolactin affects when mice shed and grow hair.
research Targeting the stem cell niche: role of collagen XVII in skin aging and wound repair
Collagen XVII is important for skin aging and wound healing.
research Biology of melanocytes in mammals
Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.
research Hair follicle regeneration in vitro
Hair growth can be induced by transplanting certain cells, but these cells lose their properties during culturing. The best cell interaction happens in a liquid medium under gravity, and using collagen doesn't help. Future research could focus on using growth factors to stimulate these cells.
research More than one way to skin . . .
Skin stem cells help repair damage and maintain healthy skin.
research Skin Cell Heterogeneity in Development, Wound Healing, and Cancer
Different types of skin cells play specific roles in development, healing, and cancer.
research Epidermal homeostasis: a balancing act of stem cells in the skin
Skin stem cells are crucial for maintaining and repairing the skin and hair, using a complex mix of signals to do so.
research Targeted Expression of Human Vitamin D Receptor in the Skin Promotes the Initiation of the Postnatal Hair Follicle Cycle and Rescues the Alopecia in Vitamin D Receptor Null Mice
Vitamin D receptor is crucial for starting hair growth after birth.
research BLIMP1 Is Required for Postnatal Epidermal Homeostasis but Does Not Define a Sebaceous Gland Progenitor under Steady-State Conditions
BLIMP1 is essential for skin maintenance but not for defining sebaceous gland progenitors.
research Fine structure and immunocytochemistry of monotreme hairs, with emphasis on the inner root sheath and trichohyalin‐based cornification during hair evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) Is Required for Normal Development of Skin and Thymus
The Apc gene is crucial for normal skin and thymus development.
research A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determination, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin.
Keratin expression reflects cell organization and differentiation, not causes it.
research Epithelial Skin Biology
The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.
