March 2006 in “The FASEB Journal” This study found that incorporating laminin or hair follicles into reconstructed skin grafts on mice improved nerve regeneration and sensory function, suggesting potential for enhancing tactile recovery in burn patients.
This study found that collagen VI is crucial for peripheral nerve function and regeneration, and its absence promotes abnormal hair regrowth after skin wounding in mice, revealing potential therapeutic targets for nerve injuries and hair loss.
April 2024 in “International journal of molecular sciences” This review examined and discussed the role of dermis-derived factors in the regulation of melanogenesis, noting their significance in both normal and abnormal mammalian skin conditions, suggesting an underexplored area of study compared to dermal and epidermal influences.
