Skin aging is due to impaired stem cell mobilization or fewer responsive stem cells.
research The Vitamin D Receptor Is Required for Mouse Hair Cycle Progression but Not for Maintenance of the Epidermal Stem Cell Compartment
Vitamin D Receptor is needed for hair growth in mice but not for skin stem cell maintenance.
research Knockout of Integrin Beta1 in Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Accelerates Skin-Wound Healing by Promoting Cell Migration in Extracellular Matrix
Turning off a specific gene in stem cells speeds up skin healing by helping cells move better.
research MicroRNA-149-Mediated MAPK1/ERK2 Suppression Attenuates Hair Follicle Stem Cell Differentiation
Increasing miR-149 reduces hair follicle stem cell growth and hair development by affecting certain cell growth pathways.
research A Two-Phase Model of Skin Epidermal Stratification: Lessons from Centrosomes
Removing centrosomes from skin cells leads to thinner skin and stops hair growth, but does not greatly affect skin cell differentiation.

Prevelex, a polyampholyte, can create a cell-repellent coating on microdevices, which can be useful in biomedical applications like hair follicle regeneration.
research The Anti-Apoptotic Bcl-2 Protein Regulates Hair Follicle Stem Cell Function
The Bcl-2 protein is important for keeping hair follicle stem cells working and preventing hair loss.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cell Progeny Heal Blisters While Pausing Skin Development
When skin blisters, healing the wound is more important than growing hair, and certain stem cells mainly fix the blisters without helping hair growth.
research DNMT1-Mediated Methylation Inhibits MicroRNA-214-3p and Promotes Hair Follicle Stem Cell Differentiation Into Adipogenic Lineages
DNMT1 helps turn hair follicle stem cells into fat cells by blocking a specific microRNA.
