990-1000 / 1000+ results research Ancestral Diversity of Skin Reaches Single-Cell Resolution
Ancestry affects skin healing, with non-Hispanic Black patients showing more healing-related fibroblasts than White patients.
research Microenvironmental reprogramming of thymic epithelial cells to skin multipotent stem cells
Scientists turned rat thymus cells into stem cells that can help repair skin and hair.
research The malignant capacity of skin tumours induced by expression of a mutant H-ras transgene depends on the cell type targeted
The risk of skin tumors becoming malignant depends on the specific skin cell type affected.
research Human skin stem cells and the ageing process
Skin aging is due to impaired stem cell mobilization or fewer responsive stem cells.
research Identifying the Target Cells and Mechanisms of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection
Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.
research Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Adipose Tissue in Clinical Applications for Dermatological Indications and Skin Aging
Fat-derived stem cells show promise for skin repair and reducing aging signs but need more research for consistent results.
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 Emerging nonmetabolic functions of skin fat
Skin fat has important roles in hair growth, skin repair, immune defense, and aging, and could be targeted for skin and hair treatments.
research Self-assembling peptide hydrogel scaffolds support stem cell-based hair follicle regeneration
Peptide hydrogel scaffolds help grow new hair follicles using stem cells.
