research Developing Stratified Epithelia: Lessons from the Epidermis and Thymus
The skin and thymus develop similarly to protect and support immunity.
research Rapid Mechanosensitive Migration and Dispersal of Newly Divided Mesenchymal Cells Aid Their Recruitment into Dermal Condensates
Newly divided skin cells quickly move to join skin structures due to tissue tension and specific signals.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research A Transient Dermal Niche and Dual Epidermal Programs Underlie Sweat Gland Development
Sweat gland development involves two unique skin cell programs and a temporary skin environment.
research Newly Born Mesenchymal Cells Disperse Through Rapid Mechanosensitive Migration
Newly born mesenchymal cells quickly spread out in response to tissue tension during early development.
research Connecting Signaling Dynamics With Cell Fates In Live Mice
Stem cells control their future role by changing ERK signal timing, affecting tissue regeneration and cancer.
research Cutaneous Overexpression of Cyclooxygenase-2 Models Androgenetic Alopecia in Adult Mice
Cyclooxygenase-2 overexpression in mice skin causes hair loss like human androgenetic alopecia.
