Skin stem cells interacting with their environment is crucial for maintaining and regenerating skin and hair, and understanding this can help develop new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research c-Myc activation in transgenic mouse epidermis results in mobilization of stem cells and differentiation of their progeny
c-Myc activation in mouse skin increases sebaceous gland growth and affects hair follicle development.
research Paracrine TGF-β Signaling Counterbalances BMP-Mediated Repression in Hair Follicle Stem Cell Activation
TGF-β2 helps activate hair follicle stem cells by counteracting BMP signals.
research Wnt/β-catenin signalling: function, biological mechanisms, and therapeutic opportunities
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway is important for body functions and diseases, and targeting it may treat conditions like cancer, but with safety challenges.
research Mitochondrial Reactive Oxygen Species Promote Epidermal Differentiation and Hair Follicle Development
Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species are essential for skin and hair development.
research Vaccines, adjuvants and autoimmunity
Vaccines are generally safe, but rare autoimmune reactions can occur, often influenced by genetics.
research Epithelial-Mesenchymal Micro-niches Govern Stem Cell Lineage Choices
Different small areas within hair follicles send specific signals that control what type of cells stem cells become.
research Genomewide Scan for Linkage Reveals Evidence of Several Susceptibility Loci for Alopecia Areata
Certain genes on chromosomes 6, 10, 16, and 18 may increase the risk of alopecia areata.
research A Concise Review on Tissue Engineered Artificial Skin Grafts for Chronic Wound Treatment: Can We Reconstruct Functional Skin Tissue In Vitro?
Creating fully functional artificial skin for chronic wounds is still very challenging.
research Adverse effects of 5α-reductase inhibitors: What do we know, don’t know, and need to know?
5α-reductase inhibitors may cause persistent sexual dysfunction and depression, needing more research on long-term effects.
research A slow-cycling LGR5 tumour population mediates basal cell carcinoma relapse after therapy
A small group of slow-growing cells causes basal cell carcinoma to return after treatment.

Controlling inflammation can help heal diabetic foot ulcers.
research Quantifying long-term stress in brown bears with the hair cortisol concentration: a biomarker that may be confounded by rapid changes in response to capture and handling
Hair cortisol levels in brown bears can be affected by both long-term and short-term stress.
research Recent advances in Forensic DNA Phenotyping of appearance, ancestry and age
Forensic DNA Phenotyping can now better predict appearance, ancestry, and age from DNA, but more research is needed for precise police use.
research Temporal Layering of Signaling Effectors Drives Chromatin Remodeling during Hair Follicle Stem Cell Lineage Progression
Different signals work together to change gene activity and guide hair follicle stem cells to become specific cell types.
research Development of Heritable Melanoma in Transgenic Mice
The transgene likely activated an oncogene or interrupted a tumor suppressor gene, causing melanoma in mice.
research Multifunctional Self-Assembled Peptide Hydrogels for Biomedical Applications
Peptide hydrogels are promising for drug delivery and tissue repair in medicine.
research Maintenance of high proliferation and multipotent potential of human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells by growth factors
