research The Circadian Molecular Clock Creates Epidermal Stem Cell Heterogeneity
The circadian clock affects skin stem cell behavior, impacting aging and cancer risk.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
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.
research Chronic Inflammatory Diseases Stimulated by Current Lifestyle: How Diet, Stress Levels, and Medication Prevent Our Body from Recovering
Modern lifestyles, including poor diet, stress, and long-term use of certain medications, hinder the body's ability to heal from inflammation, leading to chronic diseases.
research Activation of Cytoprotective Prostaglandin Synthase-1 by Minoxidil as a Possible Explanation for Its Hair Growth-Stimulating Effect
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by activating PGHS-1.
research Ferreting Out Stem Cells From Their Niches
New methods have greatly improved our understanding of stem cell behavior and roles in the body.
research Extracellular Matrix as a Regulator of Epidermal Stem Cell Fate
The extracellular matrix is crucial for controlling skin stem cell behavior and health.
research The Role of Activins and Follistatins in Skin and Hair Follicle Development and Function
Activins and follistatins, part of the TGFβ family, are crucial for hair follicle development and skin health, affecting growth, repair, and the hair cycle.
research Impact of Metformin and Rosiglitazone Treatment on Glucose Transporter 4 mRNA Expression in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
