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.
33 citations,

24 citations,
January 2019 in “Biomaterials Science” The shape of fibrous scaffolds can improve how stem cells help heal skin.
3 citations,
April 2022 in “Research Square (Research Square)” PBX1 reduces aging and cell death in stem cells by boosting SIRT1 and lowering PARP1.
September 2023 in “Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology” JAGGED1 could help regenerate tissues for bone loss and heart damage if delivered correctly.
16 citations,
