research Aberrant Wnt Signaling Induces Comedo-Like Changes in the Murine Upper Hair Follicle
Overactive Wnt signaling in mouse skin stem cells causes acne-like cysts and shrinking oil glands, which some treatments can partially fix.
research Morphological Characteristics and Notes of the Skin in Preclinical Toxicity Assessment
Skin structure complexity and variability are crucial for assessing skin toxicity in safety tests.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cell Progeny Heal Blisters While Pausing Skin Development
Skin healing from blisters can delay hair growth as stem cells focus on repairing skin over developing hair.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Tracing the Cellular Origin of Cancer
Understanding where cancer cells come from helps create better prevention and treatment methods.
research Direct Cellular Reprogramming Enables Development of Viral T Antigen-Driven Merkel Cell Carcinoma in Mice
Scientists made a mouse model of a serious skin cancer by changing skin cells with a virus and a specific gene, which is similar to the disease in humans.

The PP2A-B55α protein is essential for brain and skin development in embryos.
research Revisiting the Significance of Keratin Expression in Complex Epithelia
Keratin genes change gradually during skin cell development and should be used carefully as biomarkers.
research Mechanisms Regulating Skin Immunity and Inflammation
The document concludes that understanding how the skin's immune system and inflammation work is complex and requires more research to improve treatments for skin diseases.
research Induction of Dark Keratinocytes by 12-O-Tetradecanoyl-Phorbol-13-Acetate and Mezerein as an Indicator of Tumor-Promoting Efficiency
TPA is about 50 times more effective at promoting tumors than MZ.
research The Circadian Molecular Clock Creates Epidermal Stem Cell Heterogeneity
The circadian clock affects skin stem cell behavior, impacting aging and cancer risk.
research A Family Business: Stem Cell Progeny Join the Niche to Regulate Homeostasis
Stem cell offspring help control their parent stem cells, affecting tissue health, healing, and cancer.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Sebaceous Gland
The document concludes that understanding the sebaceous gland's development and function is key to addressing related skin diseases and aging effects.
research Inhibition of β-Catenin Signaling in Dermal Fibroblasts Enhances Hair Follicle Regeneration During Wound Healing
Blocking β-catenin in skin cells improves hair growth during wound healing.
research Dynamic Signals for Hair Follicle Development and Regeneration
Certain signals and genes play a key role in hair growth and regeneration, and understanding these could lead to new treatments for skin regeneration.
