Wnt signaling controls whether hair follicle stem cells stay inactive or regenerate hair.

A substance called DKK-1 increases in balding areas and causes hair cells to die when exposed to DHT.

Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.

Stem cell niches support, regulate, and coordinate stem cell functions.

Memory T cells in the skin balance staying put and moving into the blood, clustering around hair follicles, and increasing in number after infection.

Using CDK inhibitors on rats showed a reduction in chemotherapy-caused hair loss, but later experiments could not repeat these results.

Aging causes skin stem cells to work less effectively.

Male hormones affect COVID-19 severity and certain drugs targeting these hormones could help reduce the risk.

Periodontal ligament stem cells show promise for regrowing tissues but require more research for safe, effective use.

TGF-β signaling is crucial for stem cell maintenance, differentiation, and has implications for cancer treatment.

Macrophages help heal nerves by aiding the maturation of Schwann cells and are important for nerve repair.

The conclusion is that Treg-targeted therapies have potential, but more knowledge of Treg biology is needed for effective treatments, including for cancer.

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.

Damage to skin releases dsRNA, which activates TLR3 and helps in skin and hair follicle regeneration.

Foxp3 is crucial for regulatory T cell function, and targeting these cells may help treat immune disorders.

Fat cells in the skin help start healing and form important repair cells after injury.

Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair regrowth, while treatments for alopecia areata have varying success and continuous treatment is necessary.

Macrophages help regrow hair by activating stem cells using AKT/β-catenin and TNF.

The research identified various cell types in mouse and human teeth, which could help in developing dental regenerative treatments.

Scientists turned rat thymus cells into stem cells that can help repair skin and hair.

Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.

Ruby laser pulses best destroy hair follicles during the growth phase and effectiveness varies with laser intensity; melanin is key for targeting, and timing treatments can improve results.

Too much Smad7 can cause serious changes in skin tissues, including problems with hair growth, thymus shrinkage, and eye development issues.

Skin's Regulatory T cells are crucial for maintaining skin health and could be targeted to treat immune-related skin diseases and cancer.

Correct skin biopsy techniques are crucial to avoid misdiagnosis of skin diseases.

Skin-derived precursors in hair follicles come from different origins but function similarly.

Formyl-peptide receptor agonists could be new anti-inflammatory drugs.

Thymus transplantation successfully restored immune function in infants with FOXN1 deficiency.

Pure carbon nanotubes are safe for mice, but impure ones cause immune issues and hair loss.

Scientists turned mouse stem cells into skin cells that can grow into skin layers and structures.
