10 / 10 results

research Single-Cell Transcriptomics of Traced Epidermal and Hair Follicle Stem Cells Reveals Rapid Adaptations During Wound Healing

209 citations , October 2018 in “Cell Reports”

This study found that Lgr5 and Lgr6 stem cells both activated wound-healing genes, but only Lgr5 stem cells changed their identity to contribute to new skin formation during wound repair.

Vitamin D Receptor Is Required for Proliferation, Migration, and Differentiation of Epidermal Stem Cells and Progeny During Cutaneous Wound Repair

research Vitamin D Receptor Is Required for Proliferation, Migration, and Differentiation of Epidermal Stem Cells and Progeny During Cutaneous Wound Repair

46 citations , May 2018 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology”

This study found that the vitamin D receptor is essential for the self-renewal, migration, and differentiation of epidermal stem cells during skin wound healing in mice.

research Combined Deletion of the Vitamin D Receptor and Calcium-Sensing Receptor Delays Wound Re-Epithelialization

28 citations , March 2017 in “Endocrinology”

In this study, the researchers found that vitamin D and calcium signaling in keratinocytes are essential for normal skin regeneration after wounding, with deficiencies significantly delaying wound closure and re-epithelialization in mice.

research Pioneer Factors Govern Super-Enhancer Dynamics in Stem Cell Plasticity and Lineage Choice

321 citations , March 2015 in “Nature”

This study found that super-enhancers are essential for hair follicle stem cell identity, lineage commitment, and plasticity in mice, with SOX9 being a key regulator of these chromatin dynamics.

research Lineage Analysis of Epidermal Stem Cells

57 citations , January 2014 in “Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine”

Skin stem cells maintain and repair the outer layer of skin, with some types being essential for healing wounds.

research Reciprocal Role of Vitamin D Receptor on β-Catenin Regulated Keratinocyte Proliferation and Differentiation

49 citations , November 2013 in “The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology”

This study found that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3/VDR inhibits β-catenin's role in keratinocyte proliferation but enhances its role in hair follicle differentiation.

research Regenerating the Skin: A Task for the Heterogeneous Stem Cell Pool and Surrounding Niche

133 citations , September 2013 in “Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology”

Different types of stem cells and their environments are key to skin repair and maintenance.

research Epithelial Stem Cells And Implications For Wound Repair

156 citations , October 2012 in “Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology”

This study found that hair follicle stem cells initially contribute to wound re-epithelialization, but long-lasting epidermal cells are primarily derived from a stem cell population in the isthmus portion of hair follicles.

research Lrig1 Expression Defines a Distinct Multipotent Stem Cell Population in Mammalian Epidermis

503 citations , May 2009 in “Cell stem cell”

This study suggests that Lrig1-positive cells form a previously unknown reservoir of interfollicular epidermal stem cells in adult mouse skin, influencing epidermal proliferation and hair follicle development.

research The Vitamin D Receptor Is a Wnt Effector That Controls Hair Follicle Differentiation and Specifies Tumor Type in Adult Epidermis

127 citations , January 2008 in “PloS one”

This study observed that the vitamin D receptor is crucial for hair follicle formation and altering tumor development in the Wnt signaling pathway, suggesting therapeutic potential for vitamin D analogues in related tumors.
