research The Paradox of p53: What, How, and Why?
The p53 protein has complex, sometimes contradictory functions, including tumor suppression and promoting cell survival.
research Erasing the methyl mark: histone demethylases at the center of cellular differentiation and disease
Histone demethylases can change gene expression and may be linked to diseases like cancer.
research Tracing the cellular origin of cancer
Understanding where cancer cells come from helps create better prevention and treatment methods.
research The Harmonies Played by TGF-β in Stem Cell Biology
TGF-β is crucial for controlling stem cell behavior and changes in its signaling can lead to diseases like cancer.
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 Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research Adipocytes in Skin Health and Disease
Fat cells are important for healthy skin, hair growth, and healing, and changes in these cells can affect skin conditions and aging.
research Tcf3 promotes cell migration and wound repair through regulation of lipocalin 2
Tcf3 helps cells move and heal wounds by controlling lipocalin 2.
research To grow or not to grow: Hair morphogenesis and human genetic hair disorders
Genetic mutations can cause hair growth disorders by affecting key genes and signaling pathways.
research A genomic approach to susceptibility and pathogenesis leads to identifying potential novel therapeutic targets in androgenetic alopecia
Genomic approach finds new possible treatments for hair loss.
research Ligand‐independent Regulation of the hairless Promoter by Vitamin D Receptor†
Vitamin D receptor can control the hairless gene linked to hair loss even without vitamin D.
research Tp63-expressing adult epithelial stem cells cross lineages boundaries revealing latent hairy skin competence
Adult stem cells with Tp63 can form hair and skin cells when placed in new skin, showing they have hidden abilities for skin repair.
research Human Fetal Scalp Dermal Papilla Enriched Genes and the Role of R-Spondin-1 in the Restoration of Hair Neogenesis in Adult Mouse Cells
Certain genes are more active in baby scalp cells and can help grow hair when added to adult mouse skin cells.
research In Silico Analysis of the Age-Dependent Evolution of the Transcriptome of Mouse Skin Stem Cells
The research found that the gene activity in mouse skin stem cells changes significantly as they age.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
Genes related to keratin, skin cell differentiation, and immune functions are key in hedgehog skin and spine development.
research Current Genetics in Hair Diseases
Genetic mutations cause various hair diseases, and whole genome sequencing may reveal more about these conditions.
research SPT6 maintains epidermal homeostasis by inhibiting an NF-κB-positive feedback loop to prevent excessive inflammation
SPT6 prevents excessive skin inflammation by blocking a feedback loop.
research Cell death as an architect of adult skin stem cell niches
Cell death shapes skin stem cell environments, affecting inflammation, repair, and cancer.
research Molecular heterogeneity of quiescent melanocyte stem cells revealed by single-cell RNA-sequencing
Different types of inactive melanocyte stem cells exist with unique characteristics and potential to develop into other cells.
research The Rho GTPase exchange factor Vav2 promotes extensive age-dependent rewiring of the hair follicle stem cell transcriptome
Vav2 changes how hair follicle stem cells' genes work as they age, which might improve regeneration but also raise cancer risk.
research Wnt target gene Ascl4 is dispensable for skin appendage development
The gene Ascl4 is not necessary for the development of hair, teeth, or mammary glands.
research 1334 Beyond goosebumps: Interactions between the hair follicle, the arrector pili muscle, and the sympathetic nerve during development and hair follicle regeneration
