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.

54 citations,
August 2019 in “Bioscience trends” Stem cells help repair tissue mainly by releasing beneficial substances, not by replacing damaged cells.
14 citations,
July 2016 in “Anatomical Science International” The study suggests that the arrector pili muscle is important for hair health and its damage might contribute to hair loss.
8 citations,

1 citations,
January 2008 in “Springer eBooks” Hair follicle stem cells can turn into many cell types and may help repair nerve damage and have other medical uses.
June 2024 in “Dermatopathology” A rare type of skin cancer on the scalp can be mistaken for hair loss, causing delayed diagnosis and severe damage.
October 2023 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” A protein called EGFR protects hair follicle stem cells, and when it's disrupted, hair follicles can be damaged, but blocking certain pathways can restore hair growth.
