This study found that keratin 15 expressing cells from the hair follicle contribute to the development and long-term persistence of cutaneous papillomas in transgenic mice, with a subset showing the Ha-ras mutation.

In this study, the elimination of NG2+ hair follicle stem cells during the anagen phase was associated with an aggravated sensitization phase of allergic contact dermatitis, suggesting their immunosuppressive role.

This study suggests that cultured hair follicle dermal sheath cup cells exhibit immune privilege properties, partly through the expression of PD-L1, which impacts co-cultured immune cells' behavior.

This study found that the expression of LRIG1 in Merkel cell carcinoma tumors was associated with improved overall and cancer-specific survival.

In this study, researchers analyzed over 5,000 T cells per sample using scRNA+TCR-seq technology and found that dual TCR Tregs are present in high proportions across various mouse tissues, showing unique TCR pairing patterns, V(D)J usage, and mRNA expression compared to single TCR Tregs.

This study found that IL-7 is crucial for the survival of memory regulatory T cells in the skin of mice, whereas IL-2 is essential for their initial generation but not for their maintenance.

Contact immunotherapy can change immune responses in alopecia areata, suggesting new treatment targets.

In this study, rabies virus antigens were detected in the outer root sheath of the follicle-sinus complex in the muzzle skin of rabid dogs, suggesting its usefulness as an alternative diagnostic specimen.

This study suggests that the presence and arrangement of plasmacytoid dendritic cells can help distinguish chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus from other types of scarring alopecia.

This study found that the E6 gene, but not E7, was responsible for HPV8-induced expansion of keratinocyte stem cells in hair follicle junctional zones in mice.

This study found that the ID2 gene was highly expressed in bulge-derived keratinocytes when exposed to contact sensitizers and may serve as a marker to distinguish sensitizers from irritants during in vitro testing.

This study found that in alopecia areata, epidermal γδ T cells and macrophages contribute to the disease alongside CD8 T cells, with the expression of BST2 marking interferon-driven immune activation in both mouse and human skin, which decreases following treatment with the JAK inhibitor tofacitinib.

This study reports that in mice, CD11b+ myeloid cells can convert into epithelial cells, contributing to skin wound repair and hair follicle regeneration.

The researchers reported that iPSCs derived from Sendai virus reprogrammed blood cells can mature into functional keratinocytes for up to 60 days, potentially offering new approaches for DEB treatment.

This study found that systemic administration of NDP-MSH, a melanocortin receptor agonist, provided neuroprotective effects on dopaminergic nigrostriatal neurons in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease, reducing neuroinflammation and suggesting a role for regulatory T cells in these neuroprotective effects.

This study demonstrated that the human thymus contains clonogenic thymic epithelial cells capable of self-renewal and maintaining a thymic phenotype in a specific culture system.

PCFCL may have unrecognized subtypes and needs more research.

This review highlights the role of epidermal tissue-resident memory T (T RM) cells in human skin, showing their involvement in immune surveillance and regulation within the epidermis, and suggesting their importance in understanding skin diseases like HIV infection and vitiligo.

This study used human stem cell-derived skin organoids to model EV-A71 infection, revealing that various skin cell types are susceptible to the virus and identifying a potential drug target and replication inhibitor, suggesting its utility for studying skin infectious diseases and drug screening.

This study reports that the monoclonal antibody BKN-1 specifically stained basal cell epithelioma cells and certain normal skin structures, indicating a similarity in keratin expression between the tumor and follicular epithelium below the isthmus portion.

This study reported that immortalizing human dermal papilla cells using HPV16 E6/E7 oncogenes increased their proliferation and maintained their hair follicle formation capability, potentially facilitating in vitro hair growth and regeneration research.

This study demonstrated immunological cross-reactivity between mycobacterial heat-shock protein 65 and human epidermal cytokeratin 1/2, suggesting that this cross-reactive epitope might play a role in skin diseases.

In this animal study, researchers discovered that CD4 T cells from mice with alopecia areata can induce the disease more efficiently than those from unaffected mice, likely by supporting CD8 T cell activation and hair follicle attack.

Using a combination of specific cell cycle regulators is better for safely keeping hair root cells alive indefinitely compared to cancer-related methods.

Certain NK cell changes in blood may indicate alopecia areata progression.

In this study, researchers evaluated CS12192, a selective JAK3 inhibitor, in an alopecia areata mouse model and found it reversed hair growth inhibition comparably to baricitinib, with better safety and similar immune-modulating mechanisms.

This study found that HPV8-induced actinic keratoses may mechanistically involve Lrig1+ hair follicle keratinocyte stem cells, with the E6 gene promoting downstream STAT3 activity in a mouse model.

In this study, researchers found that CD4 is expressed on murine K5⁺ keratinocytes, and its expression is crucial for maintaining epidermal stem cell balance and wound repair capacity, particularly during aging.

T cells affect skin cell genes in inflammatory diseases, and therapy can normalize these changes.
