September 2018 in “Scientific reports” This study demonstrates that keratinocyte cell lines derived from cultured hair follicles can fully differentiate in organotypic skin models, offering a minimally invasive alternative to obtaining keratinocytes for research.
February 2026 in “UiTM Institutional Repositories (Universiti Teknologi MARA)” This study found that cis-urocanic acid can engage in non-enzymatic reactions with reactive sulphur species, forming new metabolites, and suggests sulphide donors may protect against UVB-related toxicity.
This study indicates that CD4 protein may have a functional role in basal cell-like keratinocytes through TCR/CD3-independent signaling, affecting their proliferation, differentiation, and migration.
August 2025 in “BMC Research Notes” In this study, researchers found that the microRNA profiles of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from different adult cell types are largely similar, although each line exhibits some unique gene expression, distinct from both their cells of origin and embryonic stem cells.

January 2012 in “Pigment Cell & Melanoma Research” This study identified key components of melanocyte stem cell niches that maintain stem cells in a dormant state and established a culture system that potentially replicates some aspects of in vivo stem cell activity.
