July 2022 in “European Journal of Dermatology” April 2026 in “Nature Communications” This study demonstrates that aged differentiated corneal epithelial cells can revert to a stemness-like state through dedifferentiation, driven by niche-derived cytokines. This reversion allows these cells to maintain tissue homeostasis and effectively repair tissue injuries throughout life. The research highlights that while this plasticity is possible within the epithelial lineage, it does not extend across different lineages, as evidenced by the inability of transplanted conjunctival cells to regenerate the corneal stem cell pool. The findings suggest a conserved pathway for epithelial regeneration that could be therapeutically exploited.
