May 2015 in “Cell Stem Cell” Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
Autophagy helps activate hair stem cells and hair growth by changing their energy use to glycolysis.
17 citations,
September 2016 in “Stem cells translational medicine” Using bioreactors, scientists can grow more skin stem cells that keep their ability to regenerate skin and hair.
September 2019 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” The 3D-SeboSkin model effectively simulates Hidradenitis suppurativa and is useful for future research.
