Hair follicle stem cells can become corneal-like cells, potentially helping restore vision.

Scientists created keratinocyte cell lines from human hair that can differentiate similarly to normal skin cells, offering a new way to study skin biology and diseases.

Keratin 15 helps maintain tissue integrity and is reduced in activated keratinocytes.

Adult skin cell-based early-stage skin substitutes improve wound healing and hair growth in mice.

Regenerative treatments for vitiligo show promise but need more research for long-term safety and effectiveness.

Hair follicle-derived sheets can effectively treat vitiligo by repigmenting skin.

Involucrin is crucial for skin cell maturation and protection.

Basal cell carcinoma shows keratin patterns similar to undifferentiated hair follicle cells.

The method increases stem-like cells for better skin regeneration.

A new ethical skin model using stem cells offers a reliable alternative for dermatological research.

The study created hair-bearing skin models that lack a key protein for skin layer attachment, limiting their use for certain skin disease research.

Skin cells and certain hair follicle areas produce hemoglobin, which may help protect against oxidative stress like UV damage.

New materials that better mimic natural skin structure could improve healing, especially for chronic wounds.

Skin organoids can mimic human skin responses to injury and inflammation, making them useful for studying skin diseases and testing treatments.

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.

The protein Par3 is crucial for healthy skin, affecting the skin barrier, cell differentiation, and stem cell maintenance.

Stem cells help heal wounds by rapidly dividing and migrating to the wound edge.

Embryonic and adult stem cells are valuable for improving skin grafts and cell therapy.

The extracellular matrix is crucial for controlling skin stem cell behavior and health.

Stem cell treatments may improve burn wound healing.

Cell division orientation varies by body site and is linked to epidermal thickness and cell density.

LGR5 helps maintain corneal cell characteristics and prevents unwanted changes by controlling specific cell signaling pathways.

TGF-β is crucial for controlling stem cell behavior and changes in its signaling can lead to diseases like cancer.

New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.

WNT10A helps esophageal cancer cells spread and keep renewing themselves.

Mechanical forces are crucial for shaping cells and forming tissues during development.

Autologous cell-based therapies, especially SVF, effectively and safely improve atrophic acne scars.

Stem cells are more dynamic and adaptable than previously believed.

Keratinocyte stem cells are crucial for skin renewal and have potential in wound healing and tissue regeneration.

The niche environment controls stem cell behavior and plasticity, which is important for tissue health and repair.
