research Transcriptional Governance of Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence and Niche Maintenance in Long-Term Tissue Regeneration
FOXC1 is essential for keeping hair follicle stem cells inactive and maintaining their environment for healthy hair growth.
research A Novel Model System to Identify Cellular and Molecular Defects Underlying Rare Genetic Disorders
The study presents a novel in vitro model using NTERT keratinocytes with AEC-related TP63 mutations to investigate Ankyloblepharon-ectodermal defects-cleft lip/palate (AEC), a disorder caused by mutations in the TP63 gene. This model overcomes limitations of iPSC-derived keratinocytes by allowing large-scale production of disease-relevant material. N-AEC keratinocytes exhibit defects similar to those in AEC patient skin, such as downregulation of cell adhesion proteins and pathological features like intra-epidermal cysts. This model is a valuable tool for understanding skin fragility in AEC and other genetic skin disorders, aiding in the development of new therapeutic strategies.
research RSPO1-Mutated Keratinocytes From Palmoplantar Keratoderma Display Impaired Differentiation and Invasiveness: Implications for Squamous Cell Carcinoma Susceptibility in Patients With 46XX Disorder of Sexual Development
RSPO1 mutations in certain patients lead to skin cells that don't develop properly and are more likely to become invasive, increasing the risk of skin cancer.
research Celsr1 And Celsr2 Exhibit Distinct Adhesive Interactions And Contributions To Planar Cell Polarity
Celsr1 is crucial for skin cell alignment, while Celsr2 has little effect on this process.
research Epidermal Polarity Genes in Health and Disease
Disruptions in epidermal polarity genes can lead to skin diseases.
