60-90 / 1000+ results research Targeted Overexpression of the Angiogenesis Inhibitor Thrombospondin-1 in the Epidermis of Transgenic Mice Prevents Ultraviolet-B-Induced Angiogenesis and Cutaneous Photo-Damage
Overexpressing thrombospondin-1 in mice skin prevents UVB-induced skin damage.
research Expression and Function of Group IIE Phospholipase A2 in Mouse Skin
sPLA2-IIE is crucial for normal hair follicle structure and skin health.
research Regulation of Involucrin Gene Expression
Involucrin gene expression is controlled by specific proteins and signaling pathways.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Dicer- and Bulge Stem Cell-Dependent MicroRNAs During Induced Anagen Hair Follicle Development
MicroRNAs are important for hair growth regulation, with Dicer being crucial and Tarbp2 less significant.
research Developing Stratified Epithelia: Lessons from the Epidermis and Thymus
The skin and thymus develop similarly to protect and support immunity.
research Human Long-Term Deregulated Circadian Rhythm Alters Regenerative Properties of Skin and Hair Precursor Cells
Disrupted sleep patterns can harm skin and hair cell renewal, but melatonin might help.
research Loss of Keratin K2 Expression Causes Aberrant Aggregation of K10, Hyperkeratosis, and Inflammation
Loss of keratin K2 causes skin problems and inflammation.
research α3β1-Integrin Regulates Hair Follicle But Not Interfollicular Morphogenesis in Adult Epidermis
α3β1-integrin is crucial for maintaining normal hair follicle shape and function but not needed for the development of the surrounding skin.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Skin Epidermis
The skin protects the body and is constantly renewed by stem cells; disruptions can lead to cancer.
