30-60 / 1000+ results research Vitamin D and the Epidermis
Vitamin D is important for skin cell growth and health, and its active form and receptor play key roles in skin and hair processes.
research Cutaneous Responses to Systemic Iron: A Potential Role for Epidermal Turnover in Mammalian Iron Excretion
Skin may help in getting rid of excess iron through the process of skin cell renewal.
research Three-Dimensional Imaging of Tight Junction Network Across Multiple Layers of Human Epidermis by Array Tomography Using Backscattered Electron-Mode Scanning Electron Microscopy
The study found that tight junctions reach the top layer of the skin's stratum granulosum, not just the second top layer as previously thought.
research Spontaneous Tumor Regression in Keratoacanthomas Is Driven by Wnt/Retinoic Acid Signaling Cross-Talk
Skin tumor regression is helped by retinoic acid signaling blocking Wnt signaling.
research AP-2α/AP-2β Transcription Factors Are Key Regulators of Epidermal Homeostasis
AP-2α and AP-2β proteins are essential for healthy adult skin and hair.

Notch-related genes play a key role in the development and cycling of hair follicles.
research Smad7-Induced Beta-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research Disturbed Epidermal Structure in Mice with Temporally Controlled Fatp4 Deficiency
Fatp4 is crucial for healthy skin development and function.
research Lineage Commitment of Dermal Fibroblast Progenitors Is Mediated by Chromatin De-repression
Skin cell types develop when specific genes are turned on by removing certain chemical tags from DNA.

ΔNp63α helps control a protein that stops cancer cells from spreading.
research Multipotent Nestin-Positive Stem Cells Reside in the Stroma of Human Eccrine and Apocrine Sweat Glands and Can Be Propagated Robustly In Vitro
Human sweat glands have a type of stem cell that can grow well and turn into different cell types.
research Follicular Ichthyosis: A Study of Four Patients with Congenital Follicular Hyperkeratosis
The four patients have a unique type of ichthyosis affecting hair follicles.
research DNMT1-Mediated Methylation Inhibits MicroRNA-214-3p and Promotes Hair Follicle Stem Cell Differentiation Into Adipogenic Lineages
DNMT1 helps turn hair follicle stem cells into fat cells by blocking a specific microRNA.
research Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interactions Promote Hair Follicle Neogenesis and a New Stem Cell Niche in Adult Corneal Epithelium
Adult hair follicle cells can create new hair follicles from corneal cells with the right support.
