Research
360-390 / 1000+ resultsresearch Establishment of Tsc2-deficient rat embryonic stem cells
Tsc2-deficient stem cells can help understand and treat TSC-related tumors.
research Combinatorial expression of cell cycle regulators is more suitable for immortalization than oncogenic methods in dermal papilla cells
Using a combination of specific cell cycle regulators is better for safely keeping hair root cells alive indefinitely compared to cancer-related methods.
research Human TSC2-null fibroblast-like cells induce hair follicle neogenesis and hamartoma morphogenesis
Cells from a skin condition can create new hair follicles and similar growths in mice, and a specific treatment can reduce these effects.
research Brief Report: Requirement of TACE/ADAM17 for Hair Follicle Bulge Niche Establishment
TACE/ADAM17 is essential for maintaining healthy hair and hair follicle stem cells.
research Targeting telomeric RNA quadruplexes with natural metabolites to prevent cancer
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 Primary TSC2-/meth Cells Induce Follicular Neogenesis in an Innovative TSC Mouse Model
TSC2-/meth cells can cause skin lesions, hair growth, and lung issues, and may be treated with chromatin remodeling agents.
research Human Derived Immortalized Dermal Papilla Cells With a Constant Expression of Testosterone Receptor
Researchers created immortal human skin cells with constant testosterone receptor activity to study hair loss and test treatments.
research 1431 Skin aging and hair follicle stem cell dysfunction caused by T cells with defective mitochondrial metabolism
Defective T cell metabolism can cause early skin aging and poor hair follicle stem cell function.
research 376 Tsc2 disruption in mesenchymal progenitors regulates hair follicles and TGF beta signaling
Disrupting the Tsc2 gene in certain cells leads to thicker skin, larger hair, and changes in hair growth signaling, which can be partly reversed with specific treatment.
research A Mouse Model for the Basal Transcription/DNA Repair Syndrome Trichothiodystrophy
Researchers created a mouse with the same mutation as humans with trichothiodystrophy, showing similar symptoms and confirming the condition is due to defects in DNA repair and gene activity.
research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability during Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Aging reduces stem cell activation, leading to hair loss in mice lacking a specific enzyme.
research The TFIID subunit TAF4 regulates keratinocyte proliferation and has cell-autonomous and non-cell-autonomous tumour suppressor activity in mouse epidermis
TAF4 is important for skin cell growth and helps prevent skin cancer in mice.
research Loss of TET2 Tips the Scales Toward Tumorigenesis
Loss of TET2 increases the risk of skin and oral cancer.
research Data from Mobilizing Transit-Amplifying Cell-Derived Ectopic Progenitors Prevents Hair Loss from Chemotherapy or Radiation Therapy
Activating certain hair follicle cells could prevent hair loss from cancer treatments.
research Trichothiodystrophy: Current Concepts
TTD patients don't have a higher skin cancer risk because their main issue is with transcription, not DNA repair.
research Inducible, reversible hair loss in transgenic mice.
Scientists made a mouse that can be made to lose hair and then grow it back.
research Abstract 5022: Keratin15 (Krt15) + are radio resistant and tumor-initiating cells in the mouse small intestine
Krt15+ cells in mice can resist radiation, regenerate tissue, and start tumors, suggesting new cancer treatment targets.
research Telocytes are a critical source of Wnts essential for hair follicle regeneration
Telocytes, cells with long extensions, are vital for hair growth because they produce Wnt signals, which are necessary for hair follicle regeneration.
research iRhom2 Mutation Leads to Aberrant Hair Follicle Differentiation in Mice
A mutation in the iRhom2 gene causes hairless mice due to abnormal hair follicle development.
research Molecular and Functional Characterization of Clonogenic Human Thymic Epithelial Cells
Human thymus has stem cells that can self-renew and maintain their identity.
research Genetic studies on the functional relevance of the protein prenyltransferases in skin keratinocytes
FTase and GGTase-I are essential for skin keratinocyte health.
research Generation of the Krt24-CreERT2 Mouse Line Targeting Outer Bulge Hair Follicle Cells
The study created a mouse model to better understand hair follicle stem cells' role in hair growth and repair.
research Insertional mutation of the hairless locus on mouse Chromosome 14
A gene mutation in mice causes permanent hair loss and skin issues.
research Abstract 5357: Targeting mTORC1 suppresses proliferation of keratinocyte stem cells and inhibits skin tumor promotion in mice
Blocking mTORC1 reduces skin tumor growth in mice.
research Impaired Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling with Abnormal Epidermal Differentiation in nackt Mice, a Cathepsin L-Deficient Mutation
