Research cited in this study
9 / 9 resultsresearch Defining stem cell dynamics and migration during wound healing in mouse skin epidermis
research Epithelial Skin Biology: Stem Cells and Epidermal Homeostasis
The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.
research Wound Healing and Skin Regeneration
Hair growth phase and certain genes can speed up wound healing, while an inflammatory mediator can slow down new hair growth after a wound. Understanding these factors can improve tissue regeneration during wound healing.
research Emerging Interactions Between Skin Stem Cells and Their Niches
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 Skin Shedding and Tissue Regeneration in African Spiny Mice (Acomys)
African spiny mice can regenerate skin, hair, and cartilage, but not muscle, and their unique abilities could be useful for regenerative medicine.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Skin Epidermis
The skin protects the body and is constantly renewed by stem cells; disruptions can lead to cancer.
research Wnt-Dependent De Novo Hair Follicle Regeneration in Adult Mouse Skin After Wounding
Hair follicles can regrow in wounded adult mouse skin using a process like embryo development.
research Stem Cells in the Hair Follicle Bulge Contribute to Wound Repair but Not to Homeostasis of the Epidermis
research Transient Activation of Beta-Catenin Signaling in Adult Mouse Epidermis Induces New Hair Follicles, Continuous Activation Maintains Tumors
Temporary activation of β-catenin can create new hair follicles, but ongoing activation is needed to keep hair follicle tumors.
