CRH in the skin acts like the body's stress response system, affecting cell behavior and immune activity.
research Immunolocalization of telomerases in human hairs identifies proliferating cells in the bulb matrix and outer root sheath
Telomerase-positive cells are mainly in the bulb matrix and outer root sheath of hair follicles.
research Exploring Mechanical Niches Identified by Hair Follicle Compression and How These Transduce Proliferation and Differentiation Cues in Epidermally Derived cells.
Less stiff collagen promotes higher cell growth in hair follicles.
research The Vitamin D Receptor Is Required for Mouse Hair Cycle Progression but not for Maintenance of the Epidermal Stem Cell Compartment
Vitamin D Receptor is needed for hair growth in mice but not for skin stem cell maintenance.
research Defining stem cell dynamics and migration during wound healing in mouse skin epidermis
Stem cells help heal wounds by rapidly dividing and migrating to the wound edge.
research Epidermal β-catenin activation remodels the dermis via paracrine signalling to distinct fibroblast lineages
Epidermal β-catenin activation changes the dermis by signaling different fibroblast types.
research A new path in defining light parameters for hair growth: Discovery and modulation of photoreceptors in human hair follicle
Blue light promotes hair growth by interacting with specific receptors in hair follicles.
research KERATINS AND SKIN DISORDERS
Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.
research MicroRNA-148a Controls Epidermal and Hair Follicle Stem/Progenitor Cells by Modulating the Activities of ROCK1 and ELF5
MicroRNA-148a is crucial for maintaining healthy skin and hair growth by affecting stem cell functions.
research Molecular heterogeneity of quiescent melanocyte stem cells revealed by single‐cell RNA ‐sequencing
Different types of resting melanocyte stem cells have unique characteristics and vary in their potential to become other cells.
research Mobilizing Transit-Amplifying Cell-Derived Ectopic Progenitors Prevents Hair Loss from Chemotherapy or Radiation Therapy
Boosting certain cell signals can prevent hair loss from cancer treatments.
research 63452 Silencing key players of androgenetic alopecia pathogenesis in healthy human hair follicles ex vivo highlights the hair growth inhibitory effect of SFRP1
Reducing SFRP1 can promote hair growth and may help treat hair loss.
research Kinetic topographical heterogeneity in follicular thyroid neoplasms and growth patterns
Different growth patterns in thyroid tumors are influenced by where cell growth and death occur.
research Calreticulin: non‐endoplasmic reticulum functions in physiology and disease
Calreticulin has roles in healing, immune response, and disease beyond its known functions in the endoplasmic reticulum.
research The HPV16 oncogenes cause aberrant stem cell mobilization
HPV16 oncogenes disrupt the normal activity of hair follicle stem cells.
research Stem Cells in Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer
Stem cells play a key role in nonmelanoma skin cancers, with different origins and genetic changes linked to basal and squamous cell carcinomas.
research 502 The stress-responsive secretory protein adrenomedullin 2 potently induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in human hair follicles
Adrenomedullin 2 stops cell growth and causes cell death in human hair follicles.
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 Multi‐tasking epidermal stem cells: Beyond epidermal maintenance
Epidermal stem cells have various roles in skin beyond just maintenance, including forming specialized structures and aiding in skin repair and regeneration.
research Lithium chloride promotes the odontoblast differentiation of hair follicle neural crest cells by activating Wnt/β‐catenin signaling
Lithium chloride helps hair follicle cells become tooth cells by activating a specific signaling pathway.
research A ‘hot’ new twist to hair biology – involvement of vanilloid receptor‐1 signaling in human hair growth control
VR1 signaling can inhibit hair growth by affecting cell processes and increasing hair growth inhibitors.
