research Stabilization of Epithelial Beta-Catenin Compromises Mammary Cell Fate Acquisition and Branching Morphogenesis
Too much β-catenin activity can mess up the development of mammary glands and make them more like hair follicles.
research Convergent Genesis of an Adult Neural Crest-Like Dermal Stem Cell from Distinct Developmental Origins
Skin-derived precursors in hair follicles come from different origins but function similarly.
research Dihydrotestosterone Induces Proliferation, Migration, and Invasion of Human Glioblastoma Cell Lines
Dihydrotestosterone increases growth and spread of human brain cancer cells, and blocking its formation might help treat this cancer.
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 IL-9 Mediated Human Primary Keratinocytes Invasion Is Dependent on MLC Controlled Contractility and Independent of MMP Activity
IL-9 increases skin cell movement but decreases their ability to invade, and this effect is controlled by cell contractility, not by MMPs.
research Eph/Ephrin Signaling in Epidermal Differentiation and Disease
Eph/ephrin signaling is important for skin cell behavior and could be targeted to treat skin diseases.
research Lentiviral Arrays for Live-Cell Dynamic Monitoring of Gene and Pathway Activity During Stem Cell Differentiation
The lentiviral array can monitor and predict gene activity during stem cell differentiation.
research Human iPS Cell-Derived Cell Aggregates Exhibited Dermal Papilla Cell Properties in In Vitro Three-Dimensional Assemblage Mimicking Hair Follicle Structures
Scientists made structures that look like human hair follicles using stem cells, which could help grow hair without using actual human tissue.
research Androgen Action and 3D Culture Conditions Influence Dermal Papilla Cells' Inductive Properties: The Role of Wnt Agonists/Antagonists Balance
DHT reduces a cell's ability to promote hair growth, while 3D culture without DHT improves it.
research Keratin Function and Regulation in Tissue Homeostasis and Pathogenesis
Keratin is crucial for keeping skin cells healthy and its changes can lead to diseases and affect cell behavior.
research Hierarchically Assembled Nanofiber Scaffolds With Dual Growth Factor Gradients Promote Skin Wound Healing Through Rapid Cell Recruitment
The new scaffold with two growth factors speeds up skin healing and reduces scarring.
research Neuregulin3 Alters Cell Fate in the Epidermis and Mammary Gland
Neuregulin3 affects cell development in the skin and mammary glands.
research Molecular and Spatial Design of Early Skin Development
The research reveals how early embryonic mouse skin develops from simple to complex structures, identifying various cell types and their roles in this process.
research The Malignant Capacity of Skin Tumors Induced by Expression of a Mutant H-Ras Transgene Depends on the Cell Type Targeted
The study investigated the effects of expressing a mutant H-ras oncogene in different epidermal cell types in mice, revealing that targeting hair follicle cells led to the development of benign skin tumors that often progressed to malignant squamous and spindle carcinomas. This contrasted with previous findings where expression in interfollicular cells did not lead to spontaneous malignancy. The study involved 464 animals, with 30% developing skin tumors, highlighting the significant influence of the targeted cell type on the malignant potential of tumors, with hair follicle cells being a primary source of tumors at high risk of malignant conversion.
research Re-Investigating the Basement Membrane Zone of Psoriatic Epidermal Lesions: Is Laminin-511 a New Player in Psoriasis Pathogenesis?
Laminin-511 may contribute to psoriasis by affecting skin cell growth and survival.
research Cell Polarization Defects in Early Heart Development
Defects in certain proteins cause major heart abnormalities during early development.
research Neural Potential of a Stem Cell Population in the Hair Follicle
The study investigated the neural potential of stem cells in the bulge region of hair follicles using nestin-GFP mice. These cells demonstrated multipotency, capable of differentiating into various cell types, including neuronal, astrocytic, and oligodendrocytic cells, both in vitro and in vivo. Transcriptional profiling revealed a unique gene expression signature, indicating a distinct population of multipotent stem cells with broad differentiation potential. The research showed that these cells could form "hairspheres" and differentiate into neurons, astrocytes, smooth muscle-like cells, and keratinocytes under specific conditions. In vivo experiments confirmed their neural potential by successful differentiation into neuronal cells upon transplantation into chick embryos. The findings highlighted the plasticity of adult tissue-specific stem cells, challenging previous notions about their limited differentiation capabilities and suggesting their potential to contribute to both ectodermal and mesodermal lineages.
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.
research Regulation of Stem Cell Fate by HSPGs: Implication in Hair Follicle Cycling
HSPGs help control stem cell behavior, affecting hair growth and offering a target for hair loss treatments.
