A new staining method shows a special area in the hair's skin layer with lots of proteoglycans.

The research created a detailed map of skin cells, showing that certain cells in basal cell carcinoma may come from hair follicles and could help the cancer grow.

Estrogen is important for keeping adult mouse nipple skin healthy by controlling certain cell signals.

Certain proteins, caspases-1 and -11, are important in the early development of skin inflammation in mice.

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.

The document concludes that understanding hair and feather regeneration can help develop new regenerative medicine strategies.

Type I interferons play a key role in the development of various skin diseases.

NK cells play a role in skin diseases like eczema and psoriasis.

SCD1 is important for hair growth by keeping the connection in skin cells where hair stem cells live stable.

The mesenchyme can start hair growth, but the exact signal that causes this is still unknown.

Wnt1a helps keep cells that can grow hair effective for potential hair loss treatments.

The study created a new model to better understand human hair growth and health.

A protein called desmoglein 3 is important for keeping hair follicle stem cells inactive and helps in their regeneration.

Melanocytes are important for normal body functions and have potential uses in regenerative medicine and disease treatment.

Finasteride increases hair density in female androgenetic alopecia, but individual results may vary.

Mutant cells in hair follicles are influenced by their location and interactions with surrounding cells.

Hydroxychloroquine effectively treated a woman's lupus skin issues and hair loss.

Blocking a specific protein signal can make hair grow on mouse nipples.

The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.

The document concludes that while lab results for hair growth promotion are promising, human trials are needed and better testing methods should be developed.

New skin substitutes for treating severe burns and chronic wounds are being developed, but a permanent solution for deep wounds is not yet available commercially.

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.

Keratinocytes from dog hair follicles can create a functional skin layer in a lab model, useful for dog skin therapy.

Glucosylceramides are essential for healthy skin and proper wound healing.

Lichen planopilaris causes permanent hair loss and scarring due to damage to hair follicles and can be mistaken for other hair loss conditions.

Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.

Stem cells and their surrounding environment in hair follicles work closely together, affecting hair growth and having implications for cancer and tissue regeneration.

Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions control hair growth cycles through specific molecular signals.

Endo-HSE helps grow hair-like structures from human skin cells in the lab.
