research Tracing Immune Cells Around Biomaterials With Spatial Anchors During Large-Scale Wound Regeneration
Immune cells are essential for skin regeneration using biomaterial scaffolds.
research UVB-Induced Depletion of Donor-Derived Dendritic Cells Prevents Allograft Rejection of Immune-Privileged Hair Follicles in Humanized Mice
UV light helped human hair transplants survive in mice without broad immunosuppression.
research Epidermal Keratinocytes Initiate Wound Healing and Pro-Inflammatory Immune Responses Following Percutaneous Schistosome Infection
Epidermal keratinocytes start wound healing and inflammation after schistosome infection.
research Deficiency in Nucleotide Excision Repair Family Gene Activity, Especially ERCC3, Is Associated with Non-Pigmented Hair Fiber Growth
Low ERCC3 gene activity is linked to non-pigmented hair growth.
research Essential Role of STAT3 Signaling in Hair Follicle Homeostasis
STAT3 signaling is important for healthy skin and hair follicles, and its disruption can lead to skin conditions like atopic dermatitis.
research Epidermal Notch Signaling: Differentiation, Cancer, and Adhesion
Notch signalling helps skin cells differentiate and prevents tumors.
research Dandruff Lesional Scalp Skin Exhibits Epidermal T Cell Infiltration and a Weakened Hair Follicle Immune Privilege
Dandruff is linked to increased T cells and weakened immune protection in hair follicles.
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.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma in Dermatology: New Insights on the Cellular Mechanism of Skin Repair and Regeneration
PRP helps skin heal, possibly through special cells called telocytes.
research Radiation Dermatitis: Radiation-Induced Effects on the Structural and Immunological Barrier Function of the Epidermis
Radiation therapy damages skin structure and immune function, causing inflammation and potential hair loss.
research The Potential of Regulatory T Cell-Based Therapies for Alopecia Areata
Treg cell-based therapies might help treat hair loss from alopecia areata, but more research is needed to confirm safety and effectiveness.
research Roles of the Hedgehog Signaling Pathway in Epidermal and Hair Follicle Development, Homeostasis, and Cancer
