research Signaling Involved in Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Development
The conclusion is that proper signaling is crucial for hair growth and development, and errors can lead to cancer or hair loss.
research Lipoatrophy and Severe Metabolic Disturbance in Mice with Fat-Specific Deletion of PPARγ
Mice lacking the PPARγ gene in their fat cells had almost no fat tissue, severe metabolic problems, and abnormal development of other fat-related tissues.
research Dermal Papilla Cell Number Specifies Hair Size, Shape, and Cycling, and Its Reduction Causes Follicular Decline
More dermal papilla cells in hair follicles lead to larger, healthier hair, while fewer cells cause hair thinning and loss.
research Androgens and Hair Growth
Androgens can both increase and decrease hair growth in different parts of the body.
research Dermal β-Catenin Activity in Response to Epidermal Wnt Ligands Is Required for Fibroblast Proliferation and Hair Follicle Initiation
Skin needs dermal β-catenin activity for hair growth and skin cell multiplication.
research Overexpression of Activin A in the Skin of Transgenic Mice Reveals New Activities in Epidermal Morphogenesis, Dermal Fibrosis, and Wound Repair
Overexpression of activin A in mice skin causes skin thickening, fibrosis, and improved wound healing.
research Lactate Dehydrogenase Activity Drives Hair Follicle Stem Cell Activation
Lactate production is important for activating hair growth stem cells.
research Conditional Disruption of Hedgehog Signaling Pathway Defines Its Critical Role in Hair Development and Regeneration
The hedgehog signaling pathway is crucial for hair growth but not for the initial creation of hair follicles.
research Commensal Microbes and Hair Follicle Morphogenesis Coordinately Drive Treg Migration into Neonatal Skin
Hair follicle development and microbes help regulatory T cells gather in newborn skin.
research Alopecia Areata: A Review of Disease Pathogenesis
Alopecia areata is likely an autoimmune disease with unclear triggers, involving various immune cells and molecules, and currently has no cure.
research Vitamin D Metabolism and Function in the Skin
Skin cells produce and activate vitamin D, which regulates skin functions and supports hair growth.
research Hair Follicle Dermal Stem Cells Regenerate the Dermal Sheath, Repopulate the Dermal Papilla, and Modulate Hair Type
Hair follicle dermal stem cells are key for regenerating parts of the hair follicle and determining hair type.
research Sulforaphane Mobilizes Cellular Defenses That Protect Skin Against Damage by UV Radiation
Sulforaphane from broccoli can help protect skin from sun damage.
research Epigenetic Control of Adult Stem Cell Function
Epigenetic changes control how adult stem cells work and can lead to diseases like cancer if they go wrong.
research Roles of Jumonji and Jumonji Family Genes in Chromatin Regulation and Development
Jumonji genes are important for development and their mutations can cause abnormalities, especially in the heart and brain.
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 In Vivo Transcriptional Governance of Hair Follicle Stem Cells by Canonical Wnt Regulators
Wnt signaling controls whether hair follicle stem cells stay inactive or regenerate hair.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cells: Walking the Maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research What Does the Concept of the Stem Cell Niche Really Mean Today?
Stem cell niches support, regulate, and coordinate stem cell functions.
research ATP-Competitive mTOR Kinase Inhibitors Delay Plant Growth by Triggering Early Differentiation of Meristematic Cells Without Developmental Patterning Change
Certain inhibitors slow down plant growth by causing early cell specialization without changing the cell development pattern.
research Cartilage to Bone Transformation During Fracture Healing Is Coordinated by the Invading Vasculature and Induction of the Core Pluripotency Genes
Blood vessels and specific genes help turn cartilage into bone when bones heal.
research Early Inductive Events in Ectodermal Appendage Morphogenesis
Early development of hair, teeth, and glands involves specific signaling pathways and cellular interactions.
research Pharmacologic Inhibition of JAK-STAT Signaling Promotes Hair Growth
Blocking JAK-STAT signaling can lead to hair growth.
research Safety of Dermatologic Medications in Pregnancy and Lactation
Some skin medications are safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but others can harm the baby and should be avoided.
research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: Current Insights in Pathophysiology, Diagnostics, and Management
Early diagnosis and individualized treatment improve outcomes for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia.
research AXR3 and SHY2 Interact to Regulate Root Hair Development
AXR3 and SHY2 genes control the growth and timing of root hair development in plants.
research The Role of Tight Junctions in Skin Barrier Function and Dermal Absorption
Tight junctions are key for skin protection and controlling what gets absorbed or passes through the skin.
research The Harmonies Played by TGF-β in Stem Cell Biology
TGF-β is crucial for controlling stem cell behavior and changes in its signaling can lead to diseases like cancer.
research Epithelial Stem Cells And Implications For Wound Repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
