,
January 2016 in “Development” In this study, researchers found that YAP and TAZ, when localized in the nucleus of basal layer cells, are crucial for skin regeneration and hair growth, with their loss leading to slower cell proliferation, hair loss, and impaired wound healing in mice.
118 citations
,
January 2016 in “Current Topics in Developmental Biology” This essay discusses the establishment, maintenance, and role of skin stem cells in tissue homeostasis, wound repair, and their relation to skin cancer, without reporting new experimental findings.
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.
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.
