This review discusses the role of epidermal and other adult stem cells in skin repair, focusing on their potential therapeutic applications for non-healing wounds and other skin disorders, but reports no new research results.

This review examines apoptotic and anti-apoptotic mechanisms in skin homeostasis and related diseases but presents no new research findings.

This study identified an unexpected critical role for the FATP4 protein in skin and hair development in mice, linking it to a potential candidate gene for restrictive dermopathy in humans.

This review discusses the complex relationship between stress and various skin conditions, highlighting the role of the skin in the stress response and the brain-skin communication pathways, but reports no new research findings.

This study found that in scarring alopecia, stem cells are differentially localized, suggesting that both inner and outer root sheath stem cells, rather than just follicular bulge stem cells, are involved.

This study found that α3β1-integrin is crucial for maintaining normal hair follicle morphology in mice, as its deficiency leads to severe abnormalities despite not affecting interfollicular epidermal differentiation.

This review discusses changes in keratin structure or gene expression that result in various skin disorders and reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses how inflammation influences hair follicle stem cell activities like wound healing and follicle cycling and suggests a potential link between inflammation, stem cell activation, and programmed cell death.

This study reports that during late embryogenesis and early postnatal development, K79-expressing keratinocytes change and die independently of sebaceous glands to form the hair follicle opening, potentially influencing conditions like ingrown hairs or acne.

This chapter provides an overview of skin physiology, aging effects, and how environmental factors like UV damage impact skin health, without presenting new research findings.

This review discusses how the nuclear lamina integrates biochemical and mechanical signals to influence gene expression and skin homeostasis, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the roles and characteristics of skin stem cells, their niches, and signaling pathways in skin maintenance, aging, and cancer, highlighting their potential in therapeutic applications but presenting no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the significant role of Wnt signaling in skin development, homeostasis, and disease, highlighting recent advances in understanding its diverse functions, but reports no new experimental results.

This review describes recent advances in using nanoparticles for drug delivery to hair follicles, with potential applications in treating skin diseases such as alopecia and acne, but reports no new findings.

In this study, researchers found that TCDD exposure accelerated differentiation and altered gene expression in human epidermal cells, indicating the epidermal barrier as a target of TCDD-activated AHR.

This study found that deleting the miRNA processing enzymes Drosha and Dicer from mouse skin epithelial cells disrupted normal hair follicle development and maintenance, leading to follicular degradation and stem cell loss during the growth phase.

This study found that hair follicles are a significant and efficient pathway for the absorption of topical minoxidil foam in humans, with faster blood detection when follicles are open.

This review discusses the role of keratins in maintaining epidermal structure and function and reports no new results; the authors emphasize the lack of rational therapies for skin disorders linked to keratin mutations.

This study found that nonionic liposomes were the most effective vehicle for delivering reporter genes into the skin of rat pups, compared to other liposome and nonliposome formulations.

This study found that overexpression of the mineralocorticoid receptor in a mouse model led to premature epidermal barrier development, keratinocyte apoptosis, and postnatal alopecia, indicating new roles for MR signaling in skin physiology.

This review examines beta-catenin's role in stem cell renewal, lineage selection, and tumor formation in the epidermis and reports no new experimental findings.

In this study, researchers observed that loose anagen hair syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by abnormal hair follicle structure and premature keratinization, possibly due to signaling and desmosomal component disturbances.

This study found that ablating centrosomes in developing epidermis alters keratinocyte division without majorly affecting differentiation, suggesting early epidermal development is driven by high proliferation and cell delamination.

This review discusses recent advancements in understanding hair follicles, their disorders, and potential therapeutic opportunities, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that the keratins found in reptile and bird skin appendages evolved independently from mammalian hair keratins, highlighting convergent evolution in these species.

This article discusses how the balding scalp's exposure to UV and near-infrared light may accelerate aging, with changes detectable under ultraviolet light; it presents no new clinical findings.

This review explains the mechanical composition and molecular interactions that determine hair's mechanical properties, without providing any new experimental findings.

In this study, mange lesions with alopecia and crusts in masked palm civets in Japan were caused by the mite Notoedres cati.

This study found that defective cross-linking in hair cuticles is observable in a minority of mouse hair mutants, suggesting different proteins are involved in cross-linking across cell types.

This article reviews the identification and characterization of soluble proteins in horny tissues such as calluses and psoriatic scales, but reports no new clinical results.
