research The Role of Wnt and Shh Signaling Systems in Noggin-Induced Tumorigenesis
Wnt and Shh signaling are key in noggin-induced tumors, and blocking them can slow tumor growth.
research Molecular Principles of Hair Follicle Induction and Morphogenesis
Hair follicle development is controlled by interactions between skin tissues and specific molecular signals.
research The 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3-Independent Actions of the Vitamin D Receptor in Skin
The vitamin D receptor helps regulate skin and hair health independently of its usual vitamin D ligand.
research Elevated Ornithine Decarboxylase Activity Promotes Skin Tumorigenesis by Stimulating the Recruitment of Bulge Stem Cells but Not via Toxic Polyamine Catabolic Metabolites
Increased ODC activity leads to skin tumors by recruiting stem cells, not by toxic byproducts.
research From Basal Cell Carcinoma Morphogenesis to Alopecia Induced by Hedgehog Inhibitors: Connecting the Dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
research Defining Metabolic Flexibility in Hair Follicle Stem Cell Induced Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Blocking both main energy pathways can stop hair follicle stem cell-induced skin cancer growth.
research Planar Cell Polarity Effector Gene Intu Regulates Cell Fate-Specific Differentiation of Keratinocytes Through the Primary Cilia
Intu gene is crucial for hair follicle formation by helping keratinocytes differentiate through primary cilia.
research Mommy, Where Do Tumors Come From? The Origins of Basal Cell Carcinomas
Some skin tumors may start from hair follicle stem cells.
research Involvement of Follicular Stem Cells in Forming Not Only the Follicle but Also the Epidermis
Hair follicle stem cells can form both hair follicles and skin.
research Increased Lactate Dehydrogenase Activity Is Dispensable in Squamous Carcinoma Cells of Origin
High lactate dehydrogenase activity is not necessary for the growth of squamous cell carcinoma.
research Bone Morphogenetic Proteins and Their Antagonists in Skin and Hair Follicle Biology
Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) help control skin health, hair growth, and color, and could potentially be used to treat skin and hair disorders.
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.

Mice with human skin protein K8 had more skin problems and cancer.
research Stem Cells in the Skin
Skin stem cells are crucial for maintaining and repairing skin, with potential for treating skin disorders and improving wound healing.
research The Role of Smads in Skin Development
Smad-4 and Smad-7 are key in hair follicle development, with other Smads being less important.
research Molecular Regulation and Cellular Heterogeneity in Skin Repair and Hair Follicle Regeneration
Ovol2 is crucial for hair growth and skin healing by controlling cell movement and growth.
research Ectopic Expression of the Nude Gene Induces Hyperproliferation and Defects in Differentiation: Implications for the Self-Renewal of Cutaneous Epithelia
The nude gene causes skin cell overgrowth and improper development, leading to hair and urinary issues.
research Stem Cells Behind the Barrier: Mechanisms Regulating Epidermal Stem and Progenitor Cell Differentiation
Stem cell differentiation is crucial for skin barrier maintenance and its disruption can lead to skin diseases.
research EEMCO Guidance for the Assessment of Hair Shedding and Alopecia
The document explains hair growth and shedding, factors affecting it, and methods to evaluate hair loss, emphasizing the importance of skin biopsy for diagnosis.
research Disruption of Smad4 in Mouse Epidermis Leads to Depletion of Follicle Stem Cells
Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.
research Protein Kinase C Epsilon, Which Is Linked to Ultraviolet Radiation-Induced Development of Squamous Cell Carcinomas, Stimulates Rapid Turnover of Adult Hair Follicle Stem Cells
PKC ε increases hair follicle stem cell turnover and may raise skin cancer risk.
research Stem Cells of the Hair Follicular Tissue: Application in Cell-Based Therapy for Vitiligo
