24 citations,
April 2012 in “Developmental Biology” Dermal papillae cells, important for hair growth, come from multiple cell lines and can be formed by skin cells, regardless of their origin or hair cycle phase. These cells rarely divide, but their ability to shape tissue may contribute to their efficiency in inducing hair growth.

January 2018 in “The American journal of dermatopathology/American journal of dermatopathology” A man with a skin nodule was diagnosed with a rare skin condition called cutaneous focal mucinosis, which can be confused with other skin cancers.
December 2023 in “Animals” The study mapped yak skin cells to understand hair growth better.
October 2021 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” DPP4, a molecule in skin, helps heal large wounds and regrow hair follicles when its levels are reduced.
January 2019 in “Advances in stem cells and their niches” Skin health and repair depend on the signals between skin stem cells and their surrounding cells.
May 2018 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” Skin heals with scars because only one type of fibroblast is used, not a mix.
April 2017 in “Plastic and reconstructive surgery. Global open” Baby and adult skin cells are different, with baby cells having more active pathways that could help grow new hair follicles.
April 2017 in “Plastic and reconstructive surgery. Global open” Fetal scalp cells have more regenerative genes than adult cells, and decellularized muscle matrix is better for muscle repair than commercial alternatives.
January 2012 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Small molecule DMF improves psoriasis and multiple sclerosis, adult skin cells can be made to grow new hair, certain skin cells initiate hair growth, IL-17C controls gut health and can cause skin inflammation, and skin cells produce IL-17 that can lead to psoriasis.
211 citations,
November 2018 in “Nature Cell Biology” Stem cells help heal skin wounds by moving and changing roles, working with other cells, and needing more research on their activation and behavior.
129 citations,
May 2015 in “Cell Stem Cell” Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
36 citations,
