research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
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.
research Regulatory T Cells: The Many Faces of Foxp3
Foxp3 is crucial for regulatory T cell function, and targeting these cells may help treat immune disorders.
research Resting No More: Redefining Telogen, the Maintenance Stage of the Hair Growth Cycle
The telogen phase of hair growth is active and important for preparing hair follicles for regeneration, not just a resting stage.
research Epithelial Skin Biology: Stem Cells and Epidermal Homeostasis
The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.
research Biology of the Wool Follicle: An Excursion into a Unique Tissue Interaction System Waiting to Be Rediscovered
The article concludes that the wool follicle is a valuable model for studying tissue interactions and has potential for genetic improvements in wool production.

A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.
research Control of Hair Follicle Cell Fate by Underlying Mesenchyme Through a CSL–Wnt5a–FoxN1 Regulatory Axis
Notch/CSL signaling controls hair follicle differentiation through Wnt5a and FoxN1.
research A Novel Point Mutation in the Ligand-Binding Domain of the Human Glucocorticoid Receptor Causing Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance: The Importance of the C Terminus in Conferring Transactivational Activity
A new mutation in the human glucocorticoid receptor reduces its function and causes resistance to glucocorticoids.
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.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
research Cell Types Promoting Goosebumps Form a Niche to Regulate Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Muscles and nerves that cause goosebumps also help control hair growth.
research Hairless and Wnt Signaling: Allies in Epithelial Stem Cell Differentiation
The HR protein's role as a repressor is essential for controlling hair growth.
research Short-Chain Fatty Acids from Cutibacterium Acnes Activate Both a Canonical and Epigenetic Inflammatory Response in Human Sebocytes
Short-chain fatty acids from *Cutibacterium acnes* cause skin inflammation, contributing to acne.
research Semen Parameters Among Transgender Women With a History of Hormonal Treatment
Hormonal treatment in transgender women reduces semen quality, but stopping treatment may improve it.
research From Neural Crest Cells to Melanocytes: Cellular Plasticity During Development and Beyond
Melanocyte development from neural crest cells is complex and influenced by many factors, and better understanding could help treat skin disorders.
