The document concludes that mouse models are helpful but have limitations for skin wound healing research, and suggests using larger animals and genetically modified mice for better human application.
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 Hair Growth Inhibition by Psychoemotional Stress: A Mouse Model for Neural Mechanisms in Hair Growth Control
Stress can stop hair growth in mice, and treatments can reverse this effect.
research Stretching the Limits: From Homeostasis to Stem Cell Plasticity in Wound Healing and Cancer
Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.
research Epithelial Skin Biology: Stem Cells and Epidermal Homeostasis
The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.
research Genetic Basis of Skin Appendage Development
Hair, teeth, and mammary glands develop similarly at first but use different genes later.
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 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 Molecular Basis of Hair Cell Loss
The document concludes that there are no effective clinical treatments for hearing loss due to hair cell damage, but research is ongoing.
research Mechanical Forces in Skin Disorders
Skin problems can be caused or worsened by physical forces and pressure on the skin.

Certain proteins, caspases-1 and -11, are important in the early development of skin inflammation in mice.
research Aging in Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Niche Microenvironment
Aging in hair follicle stem cells leads to hair graying, thinning, and loss.
research Lymphoid Enhancer-Binding Factor-1 Interacts with the DNA-Binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor
LEF1 interacts with Vitamin D Receptor, affecting hair follicle regeneration and this could be linked to hair loss conditions.
research Photobiomodulation Devices for Hair Regrowth and Wound Healing: A Therapy Full of Promise but a Literature Full of Confusion
Photobiomodulation may help with hair growth and wound healing, but research is inconsistent and needs better quality studies.
research The Dynamic Duo: Niche and Stem Cell Interdependency
Stem cells and their surrounding environment in hair follicles work closely together, affecting hair growth and having implications for cancer and tissue regeneration.
research Advances in Understanding Hair Growth
