research Epithelial Stem Cells: Turning over New Leaves
Epithelial stem cells are crucial for tissue renewal and repair, and understanding them could improve treatments for damage and cancer.
research Modulating the stem cell niche for tissue regeneration
Changing the environment around stem cells could help tissue repair, but it's hard to be precise and avoid side effects.
research Identification of the cell lineage at the origin of basal cell carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research Wnt Signaling, Lgr5, and Stem Cells in the Intestine and Skin
Lgr5 is a marker for active, self-renewing stem cells in the intestine and skin, important for tissue maintenance.
research Cutaneous and Mucosal Lichen Planus: A Comprehensive Review of Clinical Subtypes, Risk Factors, Diagnosis, and Prognosis
Lichen Planus is a less common condition affecting skin and mucous membranes, with various types and associated risk factors, challenging to diagnose, significantly impacts life quality, and may have a risk of cancerous changes in oral lesions.
research Skin wound healing in humans and mice: Challenges in translational research
The document concludes that mouse models are helpful but have limitations for skin wound healing research, and suggests using larger animals and genetically modified mice for better human application.
research Apoptosis in human skin development: Morphogenesis, periderm, and stem cells
Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.
research Vitamin D metabolism and function in the skin
Skin cells produce and activate vitamin D, which regulates skin functions and supports hair growth.
research Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) Is Required for Normal Development of Skin and Thymus
The Apc gene is crucial for normal skin and thymus development.
research Epidermal stem cell diversity and quiescence
Epidermal stem cells are diverse and vary in activity, playing key roles in skin maintenance and repair.
research A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determination, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin.
Keratin expression reflects cell organization and differentiation, not causes it.
research A matter of life and death: self‐renewal in stem cells
Stem cell self-renewal is complex and needs more research for full understanding.
research Cachexia and graft-vs.-host-disease-type skin changes in keratin promoter-driven TNF alpha transgenic mice.
TNF alpha in skin cells causes weight loss, hair and fat issues, and skin inflammation in mice.
research 25 Hydroxyvitamin D 1 α-Hydroxylase Is Required for Optimal Epidermal Differentiation and Permeability Barrier Homeostasis
The enzyme 25 Hydroxyvitamin D 1 α-Hydroxylase is essential for healthy skin and recovery after skin damage.
research Modulation of Hair Growth with Small Molecule Agonists of the Hedgehog Signaling Pathway
Applying a special compound can promote hair growth without harmful side effects.
research The histopathologic spectrum of psoriasis
Psoriasis skin changes are complex and might need several biopsies for a clear diagnosis.
research Primary cicatricial alopecia
Treatments for permanent hair loss from scarring aim to stop further loss, not regrow hair, and vary by condition, with partial success common.
research Role of cholesterol sulfate in epidermal structure and function: Lessons from X-linked ichthyosis
Cholesterol sulfate buildup due to a genetic mutation disrupts the skin barrier, leading to the scaling skin seen in X-linked ichthyosis.
research Evaluation and diagnosis of the hair loss patient
To diagnose hair loss, use a systematic approach including history, exams, and tests.
research Keratin K15 as a Biomarker of Epidermal Stem Cells
Keratin 15 is not a reliable sole marker for identifying epidermal stem cells because it's found in various cell types.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Skin Epidermis
The skin protects the body and is constantly renewed by stem cells; disruptions can lead to cancer.
research Epidermal Development in Mammals: Key Regulators, Signals from Beneath, and Stem Cells
Skin development in mammals is controlled by key proteins and signals from underlying cells, involving stem cells for maintenance and repair.
research Induction of dark keratinocytes by 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate and mezerein as an indicator of tumor-promoting efficiency
TPA is about 50 times more effective at promoting tumors than MZ.
research Stem cells in tissues, organoids, and cancers
Stem cells are crucial for tissue growth, cancer treatment, and disease modeling, but challenges remain in clinical use.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability during Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Mice lacking a key DNA methylation enzyme in skin cells have a lower chance of activating stem cells necessary for hair growth, leading to progressive hair loss.
research Ectopic Expression of the nude Gene Induces Hyperproliferation and Defects in Differentiation: Implications for the Self-Renewal of Cutaneous Epithelia
The nude gene causes skin cell overgrowth and improper development, leading to hair and urinary issues.
research Anti-Acne Agents Attenuate FGFR2 Signal Transduction in Acne
Anti-acne medications may work by reducing the activity of a protein involved in acne development.
research Permanent alopecia following chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation
Chemotherapy and bone marrow transplant can cause permanent hair loss.
