This article reviews the role of adult stem cells in tissue homeostasis and wound repair, focusing on their regulation within the murine hair follicle's specialized niche, but it presents no new findings.
This review examines current knowledge on human epithelial hair follicle stem cells, their markers, and outlines challenges in translating findings from murine studies to human research, but does not report new experimental results.
This study found that the absence of Ctip2 in epidermal keratinocytes led to impaired wound healing in mice, affecting cell migration, proliferation, and hair follicle stem cell maintenance.
