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.
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 Neurotrophin-4 modulates the mechanotransducer Cav3.2 T-type calcium current in mice down-hair neurons
Neurotrophin-4 increases calcium current in specific mouse neurons through the PI3K pathway.
research Diversity of Adult Stem Cell Niches in the Dermal Compartment of Skin
The skin's dermal layer contains true stem cells with diverse functions and interactions that need more research to fully understand.
research Macrophages as central mediators of sympathetic neuro-immune interplay in autoimmunity
Restoring nerve-macrophage communication may help treat autoimmune diseases.
research A locus on distal chromosome 10 (ahl4) affecting age-related hearing loss in A/J mice
Scientists found a gene in mice that causes early hearing loss.
research Design of a RADA16-based self-assembling peptide nanofiber scaffold for biomedical applications
RADA16 is a promising material for tissue repair and regenerative medicine but needs improvement in strength and cost.
research TSPO activation modulates the effects of high pressure in a rat ex vivo glaucoma model
Activating TSPO helps protect the retina from damage caused by high eye pressure in glaucoma.
research Saliva secretion in engrafted mouse bioengineered salivary glands using taste stimulation
Bioengineered salivary glands in mice can produce saliva when tasting sour or bitter, but have different protein levels and nerve signals compared to natural glands.
research Hair Graying Regulators Beyond Hair Follicle
Hair graying is influenced by factors like nerves, fat cells, and immune cells, not just hair follicles.
research The Role of miR-214-3p in Hair Follicle Neural Crest Stem Cell-derived Exosomes in the Repair of Peripheral Nerve Injury
miR-214-3p helps nerve repair and recovery.
research Hyperactivation of sympathetic nerves drives depletion of melanocyte stem cells
Stress can cause hair to turn gray by depleting stem cells.
research Cell Types Promoting Goosebumps Form a Niche to Regulate Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Muscles and nerves that cause goosebumps also help control hair growth.
research Different Requirements for GFRα2-Signaling in Three Populations of Cutaneous Sensory Neurons
GFRα2 is essential for controlling neuron size but not for target innervation in certain sensory neurons.
research Effect of Decellularized Extracellular Matrix Bioscaffolds Derived from Fibroblasts on Skin Wound Healing and Remodeling
A patch made from human lung fibroblast material helps heal skin wounds effectively, including diabetic ulcers.
research Recent Progress in the Understanding of the Effect of Sympathetic Nerves on Hair Follicle Growth
Stress can cause hair loss by affecting nerve-related hair growth, and noradrenaline might help prevent this.
research Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation Alleviates Monobenzone-Induced Vitiligo in Mice
taVNS reduces vitiligo symptoms in mice.
research Tfap2b specifies an embryonic melanocyte stem cell that retains adult multi-fate potential
The gene Tfap2b is essential for creating a type of stem cell in zebrafish that can become different pigment cells.
research Dihydrotestosterone inhibits hair growth in mice by inhibiting insulin-like growth factor-I production in dermal papillae
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) stops hair growth in mice by lowering a growth factor important for hair.
research Responses of hair follicle–associated structures to loss of planar cell polarity signaling
Loss of Fz6 disrupts hair follicle and associated structures' orientation.
research Cholesterol promotes hair growth through activating sympathetic nerves and enhancing the proliferation of hair follicle stem cells
Cholesterol helps hair grow by activating nerves and boosting hair follicle stem cells.
research Hair Transplantation in Migraine Headache Patients
Some migraine sufferers had no more headaches after getting a hair transplant.
research Mast cell deficient and neurokinin-1 receptor knockout mice are protected from stress-induced hair growth inhibition
Certain mice without specific receptors or mast cells don't lose hair from stress.
research The concept of tissue regeneration: Epistemological and historical enquiry from early ideas on the regeneration of bone to the microscopic observations of the regeneration of peripheral nerves
Understanding tissue regeneration requires new experiments and historical insights to improve nerve healing.
research Sensory Reinnervation of Human Skin by Human Neural Stem Cell‒Derived Peripheral Neurons Ex Vivo
Human skin can be reconnected to nerves using stem cells, which may help with skin health and healing.
