The conclusion is that certain cell interactions and signals are crucial for hair growth and regeneration.
research The Circadian Molecular Clock Creates Epidermal Stem Cell Heterogeneity
The circadian clock affects skin stem cell behavior, impacting aging and cancer risk.
research TRPA1 Modulates Mechanotransduction in Cutaneous Sensory Neurons
TRPA1 is crucial for mechanical sensitivity in skin sensory neurons.
research Anti-TNF Antibody-Induced Psoriasiform Skin Lesions in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease Are Characterised by Interferon-γ-Expressing Th1 Cells and IL-17A/IL-22-Expressing Th17 Cells and Respond to Anti-IL-12/IL-23 Antibody Treatment
Anti-IL-12/IL-23 antibody therapy effectively treats psoriasiform skin lesions in IBD patients.
research WNT Signaling in the Control of Hair Growth and Structure
The research shows that a gene called Wnt3 affects hair growth and structure, causing short hair and balding when overactive.
research Apoptosis in Human Skin Development: Morphogenesis, Periderm, and Stem Cells
Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.
research Wnt1/β-Catenin Injury Response Activates the Epicardium and Cardiac Fibroblasts to Promote Cardiac Repair
Wnt1/βcatenin signaling is crucial for heart repair after injury.
research Hair Follicle Aging Is Driven by Transepidermal Elimination of Stem Cells via COL17A1 Proteolysis
Hair loss and aging are caused by the breakdown of a key protein in hair stem cells.
research Timing of Expression of the Core Clock Gene Bmal1 Influences Its Effects on Aging and Survival
The timing of when the gene Bmal1 is active affects aging and survival, with its absence during development, not adulthood, leading to premature aging.
research Fgf9 From Dermal γδ T Cells Induces Hair Follicle Neogenesis After Wounding
