September 2004 in “Experimental Dermatology” This study developed a tissue-engineered model of innervated skin, allowing for examination of how epidermis and capillaries affect nerve growth and offering a tool for further research on skin-related processes.
August 2024 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that in mice, including middle-aged and aged specimens, creating a wound without dermal defects and using adhesive materials to separate the epidermis from the dermis induced new hair follicle formation, suggesting potential applications for treating hair loss.
January 2020 in “eScholarship (California Digital Library)” This study used multi-scale hybrid models to explore how signaling factors affect skin wound healing and embryo development, suggesting that different levels of fibrin clot density influence scar formation.

January 1997 in “Cell and Tissue Research” This study found that a serum-free DMEM-F12 medium with 45% oxygen best supports in vitro development and differentiation of human fetal skin, closely mimicking the in vivo state.
This study suggests that exogenous retinoic acid can alter the morphogenesis pathway of developing skin appendages when applied during the placodal stage, leading to changes like feather formation in atypical regions of chick embryos.
