research Calcineurin/Nfatc1 signaling links skin stem cell quiescence to hormonal signaling during pregnancy and lactation
Hormones during pregnancy and lactation keep skin stem cells inactive, preventing hair growth.
research Hair Follicle Regeneration in Skin Grafts: Current Concepts and Future Perspectives
Hair follicle regeneration in skin grafts may be possible using stem cells and tissue engineering.
research The Role of Extracellular Vesicles in Cutaneous Remodeling and Hair Follicle Dynamics
Tiny particles called extracellular vesicles could help with skin healing and hair growth, but more research is needed.
research Platelet-derived growth factor signaling modulates adult hair follicle dermal stem cell maintenance and self-renewal
PDGF signaling is crucial for maintaining and renewing hair follicle stem cells, which could help treat hair loss.
research Eccrine sweat glands associate with the human hair follicle within a defined compartment of dermal white adipose tissue
Sweat glands and hair follicles are structurally connected within a specific layer of skin fat.
research Label Retaining Cells (LRCs) with Myoepithelial Characteristic from the Proximal Acinar Region Define Stem Cells in the Sweat Gland
Sweat gland stem cells help maintain glands, aid wound healing, and can regenerate skin structures.
research Transplantation of bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal and epidermal stem cells contribute to wound healing with different regenerative features
Bone-marrow and epidermal stem cells help heal wounds differently, with bone-marrow cells aiding in blood vessel formation and epidermal cells in hair growth.
research Studying SARS-CoV-2 infectivity and therapeutic responses with complex organoids
Organoids can help study COVID-19 and develop treatments, but face challenges like instability and limited renewal.
research The bright side of fibroblasts: molecular signature and regenerative cues in major organs
Fibroblasts, cells usually linked to tissue repair, also help regenerate various organs and their ability decreases with age. Turning adult fibroblasts back to a younger state could be a new treatment approach.
research The balance of Bmp6 and Wnt10b regulates the telogen-anagen transition of hair follicles
BMP6 and Wnt10b control whether hair follicles are resting or growing.
research Skin and hair: models for exploring organ regeneration
Skin and hair can help us understand organ regeneration, especially how certain stem cells might be used to form new organs.
research Oxygen, Metabolism, and Regeneration: Lessons from Mice
Mice with enhanced regeneration abilities may help develop new regenerative medicine therapies.
research Cellular senescence in tissue repair: every cloud has a silver lining
Cell aging can be both good and bad for tissue repair.
research Transformation of amnion epithelium into skin and hair follicles
Mouse amnion can turn into skin and hair follicles with help from certain cells and factors.
research FOXN1 Deficiency: from the Discovery to Novel Therapeutic Approaches
New treatments for immune disorders caused by FOXN1 deficiency are promising.
research Priming mobilization of hair follicle stem cells triggers permanent loss of regeneration after alkylating chemotherapy
Chemotherapy causes permanent hair follicle damage by triggering stem cell loss.
research FOXN1 deficient nude severe combined immunodeficiency
FOXN1 gene mutations cause a rare, severe immune disease treatable with cell or tissue transplants.
research The Hair Follicle: An Underutilized Source of Cells and Materials for Regenerative Medicine
Hair follicles are valuable for regenerative medicine and wound healing.
