April 2024 in “Molecules/Molecules online/Molecules annual” The composite sponge helps heal diabetic wounds by reducing inflammation and promoting new blood vessel growth.
July 2023 in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology” Ethosomes could improve how well skin treatments work, but more research is needed on their safety and stability.
351 citations,
February 2010 in “Nature Cell Biology” Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
129 citations,
May 2015 in “Cell Stem Cell” 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.
