research Dermal Wnt/β-Catenin Activation Tunably Controls Hair Follicle Initiation
Activating Wnt in skin cells controls the number of hair follicles by directing cell movement and fate.
research The De Novo DNA Methyltransferase DNMT3A Is Required for Epidermal Homeostasis
DNMT3A is crucial for healthy skin and hair growth.
research Mature Adipocytes Inhibit the Antimicrobial Function of Dermal Adipogenic Stem Cells: An Explanation for Impaired Cutaneous Defense in Obesity
Obesity can weaken the skin's ability to fight infections because fat cells stop and reduce the infection-fighting properties of nearby stem cells.
research Beyond Goosebumps: Interactions Between the Hair Follicle, the Arrector Pili Muscle, and the Sympathetic Nerve During Development and Hair Follicle Regeneration
Arrector pili muscle regulates hair follicle stem cells, DNA methylation needed for hair cycling, and Wnt/B-catenin signaling starts hair growth.
research Responses of Hair Follicle–Associated Structures to Loss of Planar Cell Polarity Signaling
Loss of Fz6 disrupts hair follicle and associated structures' orientation.
research The Eyelash Comes to the Fore: Significance in Aesthetics and Eye Protection
Eyelashes are important for looks and eye protection, and more people are treating sparse eyelashes; more research is needed to understand eyelash biology and improve treatments.
research Skin Cell Heterogeneity in Development, Wound Healing, and Cancer
Different types of skin cells play specific roles in development, healing, and cancer.
research Multi-Tasking Epidermal Stem Cells: Beyond Epidermal Maintenance
Epidermal stem cells have various roles in skin beyond just maintenance, including forming specialized structures and aiding in skin repair and regeneration.
research Reduced Cell Cohesiveness of Outgrowths from Eccrine Sweat Glands Delays Wound Closure in Elderly Skin
Older people's sweat glands are less effective at helping skin wounds heal due to weaker cell connections.
research The Arrector Pili Muscle: The Bridge Between the Follicular Stem Cell Niche and the Interfollicular Epidermis
The study suggests that the arrector pili muscle is important for hair health and its damage might contribute to hair loss.

Skin stem cells interacting with their environment is crucial for maintaining and regenerating skin and hair, and understanding this can help develop new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research Recent Progress in Understanding the Effect of Sympathetic Nerves on Hair Follicle Growth
Stress can cause hair loss by affecting nerve-related hair growth, and noradrenaline might help prevent this.
research Hair Follicle Epidermal Stem Cells Define a Niche for Tactile Sensation
Skin stem cells in hair follicles are important for touch sensation.
research Decision Letter: Hair Follicle Epidermal Stem Cells Define a Niche for Tactile Sensation
Hair follicle stem cells are crucial for touch sensation and proper nerve structure in mice.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma—An 'Elixir' for Treatment of Alopecia: Personal Experience on 117 Patients with Review of Literature
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a simple, cost-effective treatment that promotes hair growth and reduces hair loss, with high patient satisfaction.
research Novel TMEM173 Mutation and the Role of Disease-Modifying Alleles
A new mutation in the STING protein causes a range of symptoms and its severity may be affected by other genetic variations; treatment with a specific inhibitor showed improvement in one patient.
research Characterization of Novel TMEM173 Mutation with Additive IFIH1 Risk Allele
