August 2024 in “Receptors” Vitamin D receptor is crucial for skin wound healing.
August 2023 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” The research found that specific stem cells maintain skin gland openings and that disrupting their activity can cause blockages or early cancer signs, indicating a need for targeted treatments.
July 2022 in “Skin research and technology” Skin CT can help diagnose rosacea by identifying specific skin features, but should be used with clinical signs to avoid misdiagnosis.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Immune cells might contribute to hair loss caused by a specific mutation.
April 2017 in “Journal of dermatological science” Removing PLCg1 from skin cells caused thicker oil glands and less hair in mice.
April 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Lymphoid-specific helicase (Lsh) is crucial for skin growth, change, and healing after injury.
Controlling Tslp can improve health in AEC syndrome patients.
mEphA1 receptor tyrosine kinase is important for skin and hair development and may play a role in certain diseases.
December 2016 in “Paleontological Journal” Hair growth can be induced by transplanting certain cells, but these cells lose their properties during culturing. The best cell interaction happens in a liquid medium under gravity, and using collagen doesn't help. Future research could focus on using growth factors to stimulate these cells.
