research Cell Death by Cornification
Cornification is how skin cells die to form the protective outer layer of skin, hair, and nails.
research Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Stabilizes Hemidesmosomes in Keratinocytes
Wnt/β-catenin signaling is important for keeping skin cell attachment structures stable.
research Dynamic Regulation of Retinoic Acid-Binding Proteins in Developing, Adult, and Neoplastic Skin Reveals Roles for β-Catenin and Notch Signaling
Retinoic acid-binding proteins in skin are regulated by β-catenin and Notch signalling.
research The Epidermis: Rising to the Surface
The document concludes that recent research has improved understanding of skin diseases and the balance between cell growth and differentiation in the epidermis.
research Wnt4 Increases the Thickness of the Epidermis in Burn Wounds by Activating Canonical Wnt Signalling and Decreasing Cell Junctions Between Epidermal Cells
Wnt4 protein makes the outer skin layer thicker in burn wounds by turning on a specific healing pathway and loosening the connections between skin cells.
research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research Multipotent Nestin-Positive Stem Cells Reside in the Stroma of Human Eccrine and Apocrine Sweat Glands and Can Be Propagated Robustly In Vitro
Human sweat glands have a type of stem cell that can grow well and turn into different cell types.
research Transglutaminase 3: The Involvement in Epithelial Differentiation and Cancer
TGM3 is important for skin and hair structure and may help diagnose cancer.
research The G-Protein Coupled Receptor Kinase 2 (GRK2) Orchestrates Hair Follicle Homeostasis
GRK2 is essential for healthy hair follicle function, and its absence can lead to hair loss and cysts.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cell Progeny Heal Blisters While Pausing Skin Development
When skin blisters, healing the wound is more important than growing hair, and certain stem cells mainly fix the blisters without helping hair growth.
research Hair, Cutaneous Homeostasis, and Stem Cell Functions
Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.

pCLCA2 protein may help maintain skin structure and function.
research Stress-Induced Production of Chemokines by Hair Follicles Regulates the Trafficking of Dendritic Cells in Skin
Hair follicles help attract immune cells to the skin during stress.
research Topobiology of Human Pigmentation: P-Cadherin Selectively Stimulates Hair Follicle Melanogenesis
P-cadherin is crucial for hair follicle pigmentation but not skin pigmentation.
research Two Distinct Signaling Pathways in Hair Cycle Induction: Stat3-Dependent and Independent Pathways
There are two ways to start hair growth: one needs Stat3 and the other does not, but both need PI3K activation.
