research Bioengineering Skin Using Mechanisms of Regeneration and Repair
Artificial skin development has challenges, but new materials and understanding cell behavior could improve tissue repair. Also, certain growth factors and hydrogel technology show promise for advanced skin replacement therapies.
research Vitamin D Metabolism and Function in the Skin
Skin cells produce and activate vitamin D, which regulates skin functions and supports hair growth.
research Tissue Engineering of Human Hair Follicles Using a Biomimetic Developmental Approach
Researchers created human hair follicles using a new method that could help treat hair loss.
research Epigenetic Control of Adult Stem Cell Function
Epigenetic changes control how adult stem cells work and can lead to diseases like cancer if they go wrong.
research Vitamin D and the Skin: Physiology and Pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research The Harmonies Played by TGF-β in Stem Cell Biology
TGF-β is crucial for controlling stem cell behavior and changes in its signaling can lead to diseases like cancer.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: A Review
Male pattern baldness involves genetics, hormones, and needs better treatments.
research Sic Transit Gloria: Farewell to the Epidermal Transit Amplifying Cell?
New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.
research Estrogens and Aging Skin
Estrogen therapy can reduce skin aging but has cancer risks.
research Age-Associated Inflammation Inhibits Epidermal Stem Cell Function
Aging causes skin stem cells to work less effectively.
research Molecular Mechanisms of Viral Oncogenesis in Humans
Some viruses can cause cancer by changing cell processes and avoiding the immune system; vaccines and targeted treatments help reduce these cancers.
research Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells: Regenerative Potency in Periodontium
Periodontal ligament stem cells show promise for regrowing tissues but require more research for safe, effective use.
research Exosomes for Repair, Regeneration, and Rejuvenation
Exosomes could potentially enhance tissue repair and regeneration with lower rejection risk and easier production than live cell therapies.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Stem Cells
TGF-β signaling is crucial for stem cell maintenance, differentiation, and has implications for cancer treatment.
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 The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research Dermal Adipocyte Lipolysis and Myofibroblast Conversion Are Required for Efficient Skin Repair
Fat cells in the skin help start healing and form important repair cells after injury.
research Neurosteroidogenesis Today: Novel Targets for Neuroactive Steroid Synthesis and Action and Their Relevance for Translational Research
New targets for making and using brain-synthesized steroids could lead to better treatments for brain disorders and alcoholism.
research Cell Death in the Skin: Mechanisms and Implications
Understanding how cells die in the skin is important for treating skin diseases and preventing hair loss.
research Smoking and the Skin: Effects and Therapeutic Potential
Smoking harms the skin, causing early aging and increasing cancer risk, but stopping smoking can improve skin health.
research Wnt and Notch Signaling Pathway Involved in Wound Healing by Targeting c-Myc and Hes1 Separately
Wnt and Notch signaling help wound healing by promoting cell growth and regulating cell differentiation.
research Lignans and Neolignans: Plant Secondary Metabolites as a Reservoir of Biologically Active Substances
Lignans and neolignans from plants may help protect against various health issues, including cancer and heart disease.
research Androgens and Androgen Receptor Action in Skin and Hair Follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Melanocytes: The New Black
Melanocytes are crucial for skin pigmentation and can affect conditions like melanoma, vitiligo, and albinism, as well as hair color and hearing.
research Role of Genetics and Sex Steroid Hormones in Male Androgenetic Alopecia and Female Pattern Hair Loss: An Update
Genetics and hormones play a role in male and female hair loss, but more research is needed to fully understand it.
research FOXO1, TGF-β Regulation and Wound Healing
FOXO1 is important for wound healing, but its dysfunction in diabetes can slow the healing process.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Skin Epidermis
The skin protects the body and is constantly renewed by stem cells; disruptions can lead to cancer.
research Epidermal Development in Mammals: Key Regulators, Signals from Beneath, and Stem Cells
Skin development in mammals is controlled by key proteins and signals from underlying cells, involving stem cells for maintenance and repair.
