June 2023 in “Cell Reports” This study investigated dermal fibroblasts in mouse skin using single-cell RNA sequencing and identified signaling pathways that influence adipogenesis, finding that IL-1-NF-κB promotes, while WNT-β-catenin inhibits, the adipogenic potential of these cells, with implications for wound healing and scar formation.

September 2019 in “Journal of Clinical Investigation” This study found that mature dermal adipocytes have high plasticity, undergoing dedifferentiation and redifferentiation, which plays a significant role in hair cycling and wound healing.
September 2019 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study suggests that human skin contains distinct fibroblast subsets with unique expression profiles and functions, which can be isolated to investigate their role in skin pathogenesis.
November 2025 in “Scientia Pharmaceutica” This review highlights that injectable biostimulatory agents like poly-L-lactic acid, polycaprolactone, and calcium hydroxyapatite are effective in regenerative aesthetics by enhancing collagen production, stimulating adipogenesis, and improving dermal quality, although further research is needed to standardize protocols and confirm long-term safety and efficacy.
January 2019 in “Advances in stem cells and their niches” This review outlines the various fibroblast subsets in the skin dermis, their origins, and their influence on epidermal stem cell behavior, highlighting the role of the local dermal niche in stem cell plasticity.
