research Colon Cancer Stem Cells: Promise of Targeted Therapy
Targeting colon cancer stem cells might lead to better treatment results.
research EZH1 and EZH2 cogovern histone H3K27 trimethylation and are essential for hair follicle homeostasis and wound repair
EZH1 and EZH2 are crucial for healthy hair growth and skin repair.
research Aging and Immortality: Quasi-Programmed Senescence and Its Pharmacologic Inhibition
The conclusion is that using drugs to block the TOR pathway might slow aging and prevent age-related diseases.
research More than one way to skin . . .
Skin stem cells help repair damage and maintain healthy skin.
research Epigenetic control of adult stem cell function
Epigenetic changes control how adult stem cells work and can lead to diseases like cancer if they go wrong.
research Cyclooxygenases in the skin: pharmacological and toxicological implications
Blocking COX, especially COX-2, in the skin can reduce inflammation and pain and may help prevent skin cancer.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Molecular biology of hair morphogenesis: Development and cycling
Understanding hair growth involves complex interactions between molecules and could help treat hair disorders.
research Human skin stem cells and the ageing process
Skin aging is due to impaired stem cell mobilization or fewer responsive stem cells.
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 TRP Channels in Skin Biology and Pathophysiology
TRP channels in the skin are important for sensation and health, and targeting them could help treat skin disorders.
research Extraskeletal actions of vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research Careless talk costs lives: fibroblast growth factor receptor signalling and the consequences of pathway malfunction
Fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling controls cell development and repair, and its malfunction can cause disorders and cancer, but it also offers potential for targeted therapies.
research Genetic basis of skin appendage development
Hair, teeth, and mammary glands develop similarly at first but use different genes later.
research Biology and Genetics of Hair
The document concludes that understanding the genes and pathways involved in hair growth is crucial for developing treatments for hair diseases.
research Chapter 6 Fetal Skin Wound Healing
Fetal skin heals without scarring due to unique cells and processes not present in adult skin healing.
research BMP-FGF Signaling Axis Mediates Wnt-Induced Epidermal Stratification in Developing Mammalian Skin
Wnt signaling is essential for forming the skin's spinous layer through a BMP-FGF pathway.
research Diversification and Specialization of Touch Receptors in Skin
Skin has specialized touch receptors that can tell different sensations apart.
research Wnt signaling in skin organogenesis
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.
research Skin aging: are adipocytes the next target?
Targeting dermal adipocytes may help combat skin aging.
research From neural crest cells to melanocytes: cellular plasticity during development and beyond
Melanocyte development from neural crest cells is complex and influenced by many factors, and better understanding could help treat skin disorders.
research Lamins in development, tissue maintenance and stress
Lamins are vital for cell survival, organ development, and preventing premature aging.
research Dynamic Signals for Hair Follicle Development and Regeneration
Certain signals and genes play a key role in hair growth and regeneration, and understanding these could lead to new treatments for skin regeneration.
research New insights into the functions of Cox-2 in skin and esophageal malignancies
Cox-2 significantly contributes to the development and progression of skin and esophageal cancers.
research Differential Expression of miR-93 and miR-21 in Granulosa Cells and Follicular Fluid of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Associating with Different Phenotypes
The study found that certain microRNAs are higher in the cells and lower in the fluid of women with a specific type of polycystic ovary syndrome, and one microRNA could potentially help diagnose the condition.
research Improving translational research in sex-specific effects of comorbidities and risk factors in ischaemic heart disease and cardioprotection: position paper and recommendations of the ESC Working Group on Cellular Biology of the Heart
The document concludes that future heart disease research should account for sex-specific differences to improve diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes.
