In this study, researchers found that syntaxin 9, a novel syntaxin family member, interacts specifically with the epidermal growth factor receptor and may influence its transport and signaling in some epithelial cells.

In 2002, various drugs caused serious side effects, including vitamin B12 deficiency, heart issues, blindness, hypersexuality, allergic reactions, blood clotting problems, pupil dilation, capillary leak syndrome, muscle breakdown, hepatitis, skin reactions, and lupus.

This study found that co-transplanting mouse epidermis and dermis cells induced new hair follicle formation, while isolated or cultured dermis cells contributed to follicle-related structures differently.

This study found that estrogen receptor beta, not alpha, is the main mediator of estrogen action in human skin and hair follicles, suggesting a distinct role in these tissues.

This study found that liposomes coated with cationic polymers, chitosan and Eudragit EPO, showed improved physicochemical stability and enhanced skin diffusion of aciclovir and minoxidil compared to uncoated liposomes.

This article discusses the roles of dermal papilla and sheath cells in hair follicle formation and regeneration but reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing the need for further research on these fibroblasts.

This study found that donor age and culture medium significantly impact the quality of human full-thickness skin models, with implications for their use as animal model alternatives in research.

This forum article in BMC Biology discusses evolving views on the concept of the stem cell niche, highlighting varied mechanisms and the need for better understanding of the niche's roles and functions.

This study found that applying a tocotrienol-rich phytochemical topically induced hair follicle development in adult mice, revealing a new epidermal pathway involving E-cadherin and β-catenin.

This study found that AIRE, a usually nuclear protein, is expressed in the cytoplasm of human epidermal and follicular keratinocytes and associates with the intermediate filament protein cytokeratin 17, potentially impacting ectodermal abnormalities in APECED syndrome.

This review summarizes existing evidence on how YAP and TAZ proteins are activated in epidermal keratinocytes and their role in coordinating with other signaling molecules to control transcription and influence epidermal cell fate, highlighting their importance beyond the Hippo pathway.

In this study, re-activating SOX9 in adult epidermal stem cells led to a fate switch towards hair follicle stem cell identity, with altered chromatin dynamics and oncogenic activation, contributing insights into developmental processes and cancer pathways.

This study found that activation or inhibition of Wnt/β-catenin and Notch signaling pathways in rats can alter wound healing, possibly by affecting epidermal stem cell activity and keratinocyte behavior.

This study found that human epidermal keratinocytes express a functional μ-opiate receptor at both the mRNA and protein levels, potentially playing a role in skin physiology and pathology.
