research Vibrissa Hair Bulge Houses Two Populations of Skin Epithelial Stem Cells Distinct by Their Keratin Profile
There are two types of stem cells in rodent hair follicles, each with different keratin proteins.
research Paracrine TGF-β Signaling Counterbalances BMP-Mediated Repression in Hair Follicle Stem Cell Activation
TGF-β2 helps activate hair follicle stem cells by counteracting BMP signals.
research Disruption of Smad4 in Mouse Epidermis Leads to Depletion of Follicle Stem Cells
Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.
research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability During Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Mice lacking a key DNA methylation enzyme in skin cells have a lower chance of activating stem cells necessary for hair growth, leading to progressive hair loss.
research LB965 Follicular Trochanters: A Potential Mechanism for Stem Cell Depletion in Scarring Alopecia
Hair follicle bumps with stem cells might contribute to permanent hair loss by getting disconnected due to scarring.
research Cell-Type-Specific Chromatin States Differentially Prime Squamous Cell Carcinoma Tumor-Initiating Cells for Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition
Different types of skin cells have unique genetic markers that affect how likely they are to spread cancer.
research Regulation of Melanocyte Stem Cells in the Pigmentation of Skin and Its Appendages: Biological Patterning and Therapeutic Potentials
Understanding how melanocyte stem cells work could lead to new treatments for hair graying and skin pigmentation disorders.
research Melatonin Promotes Hair Regeneration by Modulating the Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway
Melatonin helps hair grow by activating a specific signaling pathway.
research 4-Aminopyridine Induces Nerve Growth Factor to Improve Skin Wound Healing and Tissue Regeneration
4-Aminopyridine improves skin wound healing and tissue regeneration by increasing cell growth and promoting nerve repair.
research Hair Cycle-Specific Expression of Versican in Human Hair Follicles
Versican, a protein, is less present in thinning hair follicles and this decrease might contribute to common hair loss in men.
