This study found that keratin 6hf, a type II keratin, is expressed in specific regions of mouse and human hair and suggests potential interactions with keratin 17, impacting hair development and associated disorders.

This study characterized a new human keratin, hK6irs1, specifically found in the inner root sheath of hair follicles, which suggests its role in the structural integrity and guidance of growing hair shafts.

This study found that K15 is variably expressed in sheep and mouse hair follicles, with specific patterns suggesting a role in the early stages of keratinocyte differentiation.

This study reports that the autotaxin–LPA–LPA3 signaling pathway at the embryo-epithelial boundary plays a critical role in decidualization by up-regulating HB-EGF and COX-2 in the uterine epithelium.

Keratin patterns in hair follicles help understand hair growth and potential hair and nail disorders.

This study found that women with AIDS had significantly reduced epithelial thickness and more telogen hair follicles on the scalp compared to women without AIDS.

This chapter discusses the skin stem cell niche as a complex ecosystem and highlights the diverse components and interactions that influence stem cell function, but it reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the structure and assembly of the cornified cell envelope in stratified squamous epithelial cells and various disorders leading to barrier defects, but reports no new findings.

This study demonstrated that murine monoclonal antibodies can reveal specific patterns of desmosomal cadherin expression, Dsc1 and Dsc3, in human tissues and cultured cells using immunofluorescence microscopy.

This study demonstrated that hair follicle bulge stem cells can form epidermis in a tissue-engineered skin model, highlighting the significance of K5/K17 filaments in slow-cycling stem cell subsets.

This study revealed that during fetal development, MITF and Mart-1 expressing melanocytes progress from the dermis to the epidermis and hair follicles, with MITF possibly marking follicular stem cells.

This study found that in bovine skin, leptin and its receptor are expressed in the epidermis and hair follicles, suggesting a role in epidermis growth and hair follicle cycling through paracrine and autocrine mechanisms.

The study suggests that CO₂ laser creates hair transplant channels with significantly less lateral thermal damage than Ho:YAG laser in the human scalp.

This study demonstrates the use of microscopy-guided laser ablation to create a highly structured 3D hydrogel-based organotypic skin model with folliculoid structures, potentially useful for studying hair follicle development or bioactive substance screening.

This study found that grafting an autologous cultured epithelial sheet improved both scarring and skin texture in four patients with acne-associated scar contracture three months post-treatment, suggesting the technique might effectively treat difficult acne scars by metabolizing excess collagen.

This study identified that in mice, sweat gland development is directed by mesenchymal signals that suppress SHH-production, while in humans, this occurs through a BMP spike in embryonic development.

This article discusses the effects of ablative carbon dioxide laser treatment for skin rejuvenation, noting it requires only a single treatment but involves more complex postoperative management, without reporting new clinical outcomes.

This abstract discusses the mechanism and effects of ablative carbon dioxide laser treatment for skin tightening, reporting no new clinical results but noting the need for involved postoperative management.

This study reported that a Megsin-Cre transgene enables genetic manipulation primarily in skin, forestomach, and esophagus tissues, offering a new tool for studying development and diseases in these areas.

This study reports the cloning and expression details of two new human type II keratins, K6irs3 and K6irs4, in the hair follicle's inner root sheath, suggesting a distinct functional role related to hair structure.

This study reports that the fatty acid composition in cell membranes of stratified squamous epithelium varies with keratinization patterns, showing a partial essential fatty acid-deficient state in cultured keratinocytes.

This review discusses the various stem cell populations associated with hair follicles and their potential in regenerative medicine, highlighting differences between murine and human hair follicles but reports no new clinical results.

This study demonstrated that an engineered human skin equivalent can generate follicle-like structures resembling fetal skin, highlighting the role of the dermal compartment in directing epithelial cell fate in vitro.

Human hair follicles have a unique cell distribution and differentiation pattern during growth.

The study suggests that nestin-expressing progenitor cells can differentiate into outer root sheath keratinocytes in hair follicles, indicating distinct progenitors for different hair follicle and epidermal components.

This study found that the Foxn1(-/-) nude phenotype significantly influences epithelial progeny in skin, with notable changes in stem cell niches not achievable in other models.

This case report describes how autologous platelet-rich plasma treatment led to complete healing of a chronic wound in a 72-year-old male patient after other standard treatments failed.

In this study, researchers found that YAP and TAZ, when localized in the nucleus of basal layer cells, are crucial for skin regeneration and hair growth, with their loss leading to slower cell proliferation, hair loss, and impaired wound healing in mice.

This study observed that melanogenesis in human hair follicles is linked to anagen phases, with melanocyte activity and enzyme expression being region-specific to the nascent bulb.
