research Dermal β-Catenin Activity in Response to Epidermal Wnt Ligands Is Required for Fibroblast Proliferation and Hair Follicle Initiation
Skin needs dermal β-catenin activity for hair growth and skin cell multiplication.
research Bioengineering Skin Using Mechanisms of Regeneration and Repair
Artificial skin development has challenges, but new materials and understanding cell behavior could improve tissue repair. Also, certain growth factors and hydrogel technology show promise for advanced skin replacement therapies.
research In Vivo Transcriptional Governance of Hair Follicle Stem Cells by Canonical Wnt Regulators
Wnt signaling controls whether hair follicle stem cells stay inactive or regenerate hair.
research Differential Expression of Fibromodulin, a Transforming Growth Factor-Beta Modulator, in Fetal Skin Development and Scarless Repair
Fibromodulin might help reduce scarring if increased in adult wounds like in fetal skin that heals without scars.
research Scarless Wound Healing: Finding the Right Cells and Signals
The right cells and signals can potentially lead to scarless wound healing, with a mix of natural and external wound healing controllers possibly being the best way to achieve this.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Stem Cells
TGF-β signaling is crucial for stem cell maintenance, differentiation, and has implications for cancer treatment.
research Thymosin Beta 4 Increases Hair Growth by Activation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Thymosin β4 promotes hair growth by activating stem cells in hair follicles.
research FOXO1, TGF-β Regulation and Wound Healing
FOXO1 is important for wound healing, but its dysfunction in diabetes can slow the healing process.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
research Skin Aging
After menopause, women lose a lot of skin collagen, but estrogen replacement might improve skin health.
research The Role of Smads in Skin Development
Smad-4 and Smad-7 are key in hair follicle development, with other Smads being less important.
research Modulation of Glucocorticoid Action and the Treatment of Type-2 Diabetes
Targeting glucocorticoid action might help treat type-2 diabetes, but human trials are needed.
research LL-37 Stimulates the Functions of Adipose-Derived Stromal/Stem Cells via Early Growth Response 1 and the MAPK Pathway
LL-37 helps stem cells grow and move, aiding tissue regeneration and hair growth.
research TGF-β2 Is Specifically Expressed in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and Modulates Hair Folliculogenesis
TGF-β2 plays a key role in human hair growth and development.
research Hydrogen Peroxide Disrupts Scarless Fetal Wound Repair
Hydrogen peroxide can cause scars by changing healing processes and increasing certain protein levels.
research The Role of Extracellular Vesicles in Cutaneous Remodeling and Hair Follicle Dynamics
Tiny particles called extracellular vesicles could help with skin healing and hair growth, but more research is needed.
research Procyanidin B-3, Isolated from Barley and Identified as a Hair-Growth Stimulant, Has the Potential to Counteract Inhibitory Regulation by TGF-β1
Barley extract, specifically procyanidin B-3, can promote hair growth and counteract growth inhibition.
research Wound Healing in Development: Mechanisms and Regulation
Wounds heal without scarring in early development but later result in scars, and studying Wnt signaling could help control scarring.
research PBX Homeobox 1 Enhances Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Stem Cell Proliferation and Reprogramming Through Activation of the AKT/Glycogen Synthase Kinase Signaling Pathway and Suppression of Apoptosis
PBX1 helps hair stem cells grow and change by turning on certain cell signals and preventing cell death, which may be useful for hair regrowth treatments.
research A Role for the TGF-β/BMP Co-Receptor Endoglin in the Molecular Oscillator That Regulates the Hair Follicle Cycle
Endoglin is crucial for proper hair growth cycles and stem cell activation in mice.
research Nuclear Factor I-C Regulates TGF-β-dependent Hair Follicle Cycling
Nuclear Factor I-C is important for controlling hair growth by affecting the TGF-β1 pathway.
research Pharmacological Activation of Estrogen Receptors-α and -β Differentially Modulates Keratinocyte Differentiation with Functional Impact on Wound Healing
