research The Hair Follicle as a Dynamic Mini-Organ
Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.
research Mechanical Force Drives the Initial Mesenchymal-Epithelial Interaction During Skin Organoid Development
Mechanical force is important for the first contact between skin cells and hair growth in mini-organs.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
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.
research Stem Cells in the Body
Stem cells regenerate tissues and their behavior varies by environment, suggesting the hematopoietic system model may need revision.
