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 Large Scale Gene Expression Profiles of Regenerating Inner Ear Sensory Epithelia
Birds can regenerate inner ear cells using specific gene pathways, unlike mammals.
research Comparative transcriptomic analysis of dermal wound healing reveals de novo skeletal muscle regeneration in Acomys cahirinus
The African spiny mouse can fully regenerate its muscle without scarring, unlike the common house mouse.
research Defining the identity of mouse embryonic dermal fibroblasts
Researchers identified specific genes that are important for mouse skin cell development and healing.
research Molecular Basis for Hair Loss in Mice Carrying a Novel Nonsense Mutation (Hrrh-R) in the Hairless Gene (Hr)
A new mutation in the hairless gene causes hair loss and skin wrinkling in mice.
research Multi-scale spatial mapping of cell populations across anatomical sites in healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma
The research created a detailed map of skin cells, showing that certain cells in basal cell carcinoma may come from hair follicles and could help the cancer grow.
research Author Response: Touch receptor end-organ innervation and function require sensory neuron expression of the transcription factor Meis2
The transcription factor Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and proper nerve development in touch receptors.
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 874 Chromatin architectural protein CTCF controls epidermal barrier formation, hair follicle fate maintenance and suppresses inflammatory responses in the skin epithelium
The protein CTCF is essential for skin development, maintaining hair follicles, and preventing inflammation.
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 Circadian clock-mediated control of stem cell division and differentiation: beyond night and day
The circadian clock is crucial for tissue renewal and regeneration, affecting stem cell functions and having implications for health and disease.
research Apoptosis May Explain the Pharmacological Mode of Action and Adverse Effects of Isotretinoin, Including Teratogenicity
Isotretinoin's effects and side effects, like birth defects and depression, might be due to it causing cell death in various cells.
research Notch Signaling Regulates Late-Stage Epidermal Differentiation and Maintains Postnatal Hair Cycle Homeostasis
Notch signaling is essential for healthy skin and hair follicle maintenance.
research MicroRNAs in the skin: role in development, homoeostasis and regeneration
MicroRNAs are important for skin health and could be targets for new skin disorder treatments.
research CXXC5: A novel regulator and coordinator of TGF-β, BMP and Wnt signaling
CXXC5 is a protein that controls cell growth and healing processes, and changes in its activity can lead to diseases like cancer and hair loss.
research Stem Cell-Based Hair Cell Regeneration and Therapy in the Inner Ear
Stem cell therapy could help regenerate inner ear hair cells to treat hearing loss.
research Study of seed hair growth in Populus tomentosa, an important character of female floral bud development
Poplar seed hairs grow from the placenta at the ovary base, with endoreduplication playing a key role in their development, and share similar cellulose synthesis processes with cotton fibers.
research Jasmonic acid regulates plant development and orchestrates stress response during tough times
Jasmonic acid helps plants grow, defend against threats, and survive stressful conditions like drought and salt.
