fibroblast CD90 mesenchymal cells lineage tracing fibrosis single-cell transcriptome analysis

Studysummary The conclusion is that CD90 is not a specific marker for fibroblast subtypes and better methods are needed to identify them.

Research cited in this study

5 / 5 results

research Spatial and Single-Cell Transcriptional Profiling Identifies Functionally Distinct Human Dermal Fibroblast Subpopulations

418 citations , January 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

This study identified at least four distinct fibroblast populations in adult human skin, each with unique functional properties, suggesting potential therapeutic applications for wound healing and fibrosis-related diseases.

research Altered Dermal Fibroblasts in Systemic Sclerosis Display Podoplanin and CD90

47 citations , August 2016 in “American Journal Of Pathology”

This study reports that in systemic sclerosis, CD34+ dermal fibroblasts transition to CD34−, podoplanin+, and CD90+ fibroblasts across the dermis, suggesting a role in unchecked fibrosis.

research Inhibition of β-Catenin Signaling in Dermal Fibroblasts Enhances Hair Follicle Regeneration During Wound Healing

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.

research Distinct Fibroblast Lineages Determine Dermal Architecture in Skin Development and Repair

1235 citations , December 2013 in “Nature”

This study found that skin fibroblasts in mice arise from two distinct lineages which contribute differently to dermal structure and repair, impacting hair follicle formation during wound healing.

research Hair Follicle Dermal Cells Differentiate Into Adipogenic and Osteogenic Lineages

268 citations , December 2003 in “Experimental Dermatology”

This study demonstrated that clonal dermal papilla and dermal sheath cell lines from hair follicles can differentiate into lipid and bone cells, suggesting their potential as a stem cell source for tissue engineering.
