The skin has different types of stem cells that can repair and regenerate tissue.
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 BMP Signaling in the Hair Follicle Stem Cell Niche Regulates Hair Growth and Skin Pigmentation
BMP signaling controls hair growth and skin color.
research Structural Changes in Human Skin After Topical Application of Glucocorticoids Assessed by In Vivo Imaging Technologies
Topical glucocorticoids thin the skin and change collagen structure.
research Hair Follicle Growth and Pigmentation During Aging
The research found that a specific skin cell type not only triggers hair growth but also controls hair color, and that aging can lead to hair loss and color changes.
research Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone and the Skin
CRH in the skin acts like the body's stress response system, affecting cell behavior and immune activity.
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.
