June 2021 in “EMBO reports” This study found that in skin blister healing, hair follicle development is compromised as stem cells repair wounds at the expense of morphogenesis gene expression.
26 citations
,
December 2019 in “Stem Cell Reports” This study found that transient hypomethylation of histone H3 K4/9/27me3 is crucial for the proper dynamics of adult skin epithelial stem cells and effective tissue repair in mice.
87 citations
,
September 2019 in “Nature Communications” In this study, researchers identified that upon tissue injury in a mouse model, epidermal cells at the wound edge convert to an embryonic-like state with SOX11 and SOX4 playing a central role in modulating epidermal development and cell migration genes.
211 citations
,
November 2018 in “Nature Cell Biology” This article discusses the coordinated roles of different epidermal stem cells and other cell types in the skin's wound healing process and reports no new experimental results.
211 citations
,
May 2018 in “Trends in cell biology” This review explores recent insights into the diverse cell populations involved in skin development, homeostasis, wound healing, and cancer progression but reports no new results.
63 citations
,
March 2018 in “Experimental Dermatology” This review explores the physiological roles of collagen XVII in the epidermis, its involvement in stem cell maintenance, and its connections with signaling pathways, but it reports no new results.
124 citations
,
July 2017 in “eLife” This study found that COL17 deficiency in neonatal mice causes abnormal skin cell proliferation due to disrupted Wnt signaling, while replenishing or overexpressing COL17 can reverse this effect in both neonatal and aged skin.
143 citations
,
May 2017 in “Nature cell biology” This study found that the transcription factor Gata6 regulates the sebaceous duct lineage identity and plays a crucial role in epidermal wound healing by enabling dedifferentiation and broader lineage capabilities in post-mitotic cells.
363 citations
,
March 2017 in “Nature Communications” This study found that, in mouse tail epidermis, stem cells rapidly activate and regenerate new progenitors to repair wounds, with mechanisms affecting their proliferation, differentiation, and migration.
242 citations
,
February 2016 in “Science” This research found that Foxc1 transcription factor and COL17A1 are critical in regulating quiescence and hair thinning in hair follicle stem cells, with aging-related DNA damage leading to hair loss.
87 citations
,
January 2016 in “Development” This study suggests that the postnatal loss of hair follicle formation in wounds may be due to elevated Wnt/β-catenin activation in the dermis, affecting fibroblast function in mice.
129 citations
,
May 2015 in “Cell Stem Cell” This review discusses recent findings on the plasticity and regulation of epithelial stem cells and reports no new experimental results.
237 citations
,
June 2013 in “Nature Medicine” This study found that fibroblast growth factor 9, initially secreted by γδ T cells, plays a key role in modulating hair follicle regeneration in mice after skin wounds.
283 citations
,
February 2011 in “Cell stem cell” COL17A1 is crucial for preventing hair graying and loss by supporting hair and pigment stem cells.
21 citations
,
November 2009 in “Dermatologic Clinics” This review discusses hair abnormalities in various epidermolysis bullosa subtypes and reports no new clinical findings.
829 citations
,
May 2007 in “Nature” Hair follicles can regrow in wounded adult mouse skin using a process like embryo development.
1279 citations
