December 2022 in “Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology” Exosomes show promise for improving wound healing, reducing aging signs, preventing hair loss, and lightening skin but require more research and better production methods.
150 citations,
December 2012 in “EMBO Reports” Stem cell self-renewal is complex and needs more research for full understanding.
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.
4 citations,
September 2010 in “Journal of Medical Case Reports” A man developed autoimmune issues after a transplant, improved with treatment, but died from leukemia relapse.
8 citations,
July 2022 in “BMC neuroscience” Transplanted hair follicle stem cells improved brain function and reduced damage after a stroke in rats.
63 citations,
April 2010 in “Development” Compartmentalized organization might be crucial for stem cells to effectively respond to growth or injury.
6 citations,
January 2017 in “Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology” Runx genes are important for stem cell regulation and their roles in aging and disease need more research.
1 citations,
February 2015 in “Clinical and Experimental Dermatology” A man got six skin cancers within a year after a cell transplant for leukemia but was cancer-free 32 months later; skin checks are important post-transplant.
