research A New 3D Skin Model Containing Autologous Immune Cells Reconstructed by Tissue Engineering
Researchers developed a 3D skin model with its own immune and blood vessel cells to better understand skin health and disease.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Markers to Evaluate the Quality and Self-Renewing Potential of Engineered Human Skin Substitutes In Vitro and After Transplantation
Cytokeratin 19 and cytokeratin 15 are key markers for monitoring the quality and self-renewing potential of engineered skin.
research Expression and Function of Group IIE Phospholipase A2 in Mouse Skin
sPLA2-IIE is crucial for normal hair follicle structure and skin health.
research Targeting the Stem Cell Niche: Role of Collagen XVII in Skin Aging and Wound Repair
Collagen XVII is important for skin aging and wound healing.
research Hair Transplantation in Mice: Challenges and Solutions
Researchers successfully transplanted hair follicles in mice, which survived well and helped in wound healing.
research Epidermal Stem Cell Lineages: Roles in Skin Integrity, Stress Response, and Disease
Epidermal stem cells are crucial for skin health and problems with them can cause issues like poor wound healing, cancer, and aging.
research Dermal Niche Signaling and Epidermal Stem Cells
Skin health and repair depend on the signals between skin stem cells and their surrounding cells.
research Role of Stem Cells in Skin Maintenance, Regeneration, and Repair: Focus on Epidermis and Pilosebaceous Units
The document concluded that stem cells are crucial for skin repair, regeneration, and may help in developing advanced skin substitutes.
research Building and Maintaining the Skin
Three types of stem cells help maintain and repair skin, responding to health and environmental changes.
research Adult Epidermal Notch Activity Induces Dermal Accumulation of T Cells and Neural Crest Derivatives Through Upregulation of Jagged 1
Activating Notch in adult skin causes T cells and neural crest cells to gather, leading to skin issues.
research Loss of Epidermal Evi/Wls Results in a Phenotype Resembling Psoriasiform Dermatitis
Lack of Evi in skin causes psoriasis-like symptoms in mice.
research Dysregulation of Grainyhead-Like 3 Expression Causes Widespread Developmental Defects
Not having enough or having too much of the protein Grainyhead-like 3 leads to various developmental problems.
research Epidermal Stem Cells in the Skin
Epidermal stem cells help renew skin and regenerate hair follicles.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Stem Cells in Skin Regeneration, Wound Healing, and Their Clinical Applications
Stem cells are crucial for skin repair and new treatments for chronic wounds.
research Epithelial Skin Biology: Stem Cells and Epidermal Homeostasis
The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.
research Epidermal Expression of Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products (RAGE) Is Related to Inflammation and Apoptosis in Human Skin
Skin RAGE levels are linked to inflammation and cell death.
research MiRNA in Regulation of Skin and Hair Follicle Development
miRNAs are key in skin and hair growth and maintenance.
research A Two-Phase Model of Skin Epidermal Stratification: Lessons from Centrosomes
Removing centrosomes from skin cells leads to thinner skin and stops hair growth, but does not greatly affect skin cell differentiation.
research Bone Morphogenetic Proteins and Their Antagonists in Skin and Hair Follicle Biology
Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) help control skin health, hair growth, and color, and could potentially be used to treat skin and hair disorders.
research Keratinocytes Regulate the Function of Melanocytes
Keratinocytes control how melanocytes work.
research Distinct Developmental Functions of Prostasin (CAP1/PRSS8) Zymogen and Activated Prostasin
Prostasin has two roles in skin: one for normal skin development without needing activation, and another for proper hair growth that requires activation.
research A Novel Actor in Skin Biology: The Mineralocorticoid Receptor
Blocking the mineralocorticoid receptor can help treat skin thinning caused by steroids.
research The Localization of Cytokeratin 19 and Vimentin in Sprague Dawley Albino Rat Skin Tissue
CK19 and Vimentin are proteins found in rat skin that help with skin renewal and maintaining cell structure.
research The Endocrine Function Of The Skin: An Analytical Narrative
The skin acts like an endocrine organ, producing hormones that affect various body functions and skin health, and understanding this can lead to new treatments.
research Skin Structure
Human skin has multiple layers and functions, with key roles in protection, temperature control, and appearance.
