In this study of patients with Androgenic Alopecia, micro-grafts containing HD-AFSCs resulted in significantly improved hair density and follicle count over 11 months compared to a saline solution, suggesting a potential alternative therapy for hair regrowth.

This article reviews recent advancements in understanding and treating androgenetic alopecia, focusing on new genetic insights, stem cell roles, and diagnostic tools, without reporting new clinical results.

In this study, researchers identified that upon tissue injury in a mouse model, epidermal cells at the wound edge convert to an embryonic-like state with SOX11 and SOX4 playing a central role in modulating epidermal development and cell migration genes.

This review classifies mutant mice with hair abnormalities into six categories, providing an annotated table that serves as a reference for understanding the molecular controls of hair growth.

This study found that epidermal Wnt production is crucial for forming the skin's spinous layer through a BMP-FGF signaling cascade, although Wnt from basal cells is not needed for their differentiation.

The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.

This review highlights various methods of stem cell communication that reflect the unique organization and function of different tissues and reports no new results.

This study found that deleting the miRNA processing enzymes Drosha and Dicer from mouse skin epithelial cells disrupted normal hair follicle development and maintenance, leading to follicular degradation and stem cell loss during the growth phase.

This review outlines a diagnostic framework for clinicians to distinguish different types of inherited ichthyoses and suggests further testing and treatment strategies, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, increased corticosterone from chronic stress prolonged hair follicle stem cell quiescence in mice, inhibiting regeneration, but restoring Gas6 expression overcame this inhibition.

This review discusses recent advances and ongoing clinical trials in novel therapeutics for alopecia areata, despite the lack of current FDA-approved treatments for severe cases, and reports no new results.

This article reviews the role of stem cells in tissue development, tumor formation, and organoid generation, and highlights the potential of epigenetic regulation in advancing regenerative medicine and cancer treatment, without presenting new experimental results.

This study found that aging mice experience slower and more fragmented hair cycle waves, but transplanting aged skin to a young host can partially restore hair cycling, implicating extracellular factors.

In this study, specific genetic polymorphisms in the KRT71 gene were associated with hairless and curly phenotypes in Sphynx and Devon Rex cats.

This review discusses recent advances in hair follicle biology, regeneration, and tissue engineering, highlighting emerging therapeutic opportunities, and reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the role of keratins in maintaining epidermal structure and function and reports no new results; the authors emphasize the lack of rational therapies for skin disorders linked to keratin mutations.

This study found that beta-caryophyllene enhanced re-epithelialization in cutaneous wounds of female mice, suggesting its potential for improving wound healing through multiple pathways.

This study found that quiescence in hair follicle stem cells acts as a tumor suppression mechanism for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, with Pten activity necessary to maintain this state.

This review discusses the role of mechanical forces in skin homeostasis and disease development, including their impact on conditions like keloids, androgenetic alopecia, and acral melanoma, and reports no clinical results; the authors propose modifying these forces as a potential therapeutic strategy.

This study found that overexpression of Hoxc13 in GC13 mouse models affects hair follicle differentiation by interacting with medulla-specific genes, particularly Foxq1, suggesting a regulatory pathway for medulla differentiation.

This study found that prolactin is a key regulator of keratin expression in human hair follicles, enhancing specific keratin types and influencing epithelial stem cell-associated keratins.

This study identified distinct human and bacterial protein profiles in sebaceous follicular casts, with acne samples showing proteins linked to inflammation and normal samples showing proteins involved in stress protection.

This study established a new in vitro culture system that supports the growth and dynamic self-organization of hair follicle stem cells and their progeny, promoting a stable population equilibrium.

This study found distinct gene expression profiles in alopecia areata-affected skin, suggesting T-cell mediated immune responses and unique gene profiles between different stages of the disease.

This study found that AR/VDR-targeted agonist hormone therapy can inhibit cell viability in HR2-av triple-negative breast cancer cell lines through multiple mechanisms and may enhance the effects of chemotherapy.

Skin stem cells maintain and repair the outer layer of skin, with some types being essential for healing wounds.

This article reviews methods to enhance epithelial–mesenchymal interactions for hair follicle bioengineering but does not present new experimental results; it emphasizes optimizing combinations for successful regeneration.

This review highlights the challenges in treating alopecia areata, noting that current therapies often lead to relapse and have uncertain long-term effectiveness; it also points to potential future treatments such as JAK-STAT inhibitors and PRP.

This study found that H-Ras activation in aged mouse skin leads to increased dysplasia and progression to in situ squamous cell carcinoma, highlighting an age-linked connection between immune changes, senescence, and cancer risk.

In this review, the researchers detailed how the p63 transcription factor influences epithelial stem cell activities such as self-renewal, differentiation, and proliferation, highlighting the role of TAp63 and ΔNp63 isoforms in both normal tissue development and cancer pathogenesis.
