January 2013 Glucosylceramides are essential for healthy skin and proper wound healing.
August 2021 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” The study by Rahim et al. (2021) investigated the role of polyamines in epidermal differentiation, focusing on the polyamine regulator AMD1. It was discovered that keratinocyte differentiation required a shift in polyamine ratios, particularly an increase in spermine levels facilitated by AMD1, which was essential for proper differentiation. This shift occurred through elevated translation of AMD1 mRNA rather than increased mRNA expression. The research suggested that manipulating polyamine availability could be advantageous in treating hyperproliferative skin disorders such as psoriasis and skin cancer. The study highlighted that the specific ratios between different polyamine species, rather than their accumulation, were vital for maintaining epidermal homeostasis and managing diseases.
December 2012 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” The conclusion is that the dermal papilla is crucial for hair follicle regrowth, and hair follicles undergo significant structural changes in addition to cell division during regeneration.
