Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.
research Foxp3 Post-Translational Modifications and Treg Suppressive Activity
Changes to the Foxp3 protein affect how well regulatory T cells can control the immune system, which could help treat immune diseases and cancer.
research From Basal Cell Carcinoma Morphogenesis to Alopecia Induced by Hedgehog Inhibitors: Connecting the Dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
research Quantitative Single-Cell Approaches to Stem Cell Research
New single-cell analysis techniques are improving our understanding of stem cells and could help in treating diseases.
research Jagged-1+ Skin Tregs Modulate the Innate Immune Response to Wound Healing
Jagged-1 in skin Tregs is crucial for timely wound healing by recruiting specific immune cells.
