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 Lineage Analysis of Epidermal Stem Cells
Skin stem cells maintain and repair the outer layer of skin, with some types being essential for healing wounds.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research Epidermal Differentiation Complex: A Review on Its Epigenetic Regulation and Potential Drug Targets
Understanding how EDC genes are regulated can help develop better drugs for skin diseases.
research Mechanism of TAp73 Inhibition by ΔNp63 and Structural Basis of p63/p73 Hetero-Tetramerization
ΔNp63α stops TAp73β from working in skin cancer by blocking its access to specific genes, not by directly interacting with it.
research Beta-Catenin–Dependent Wnt Signaling: A Pathway in Acute Cutaneous Wounding
The study found that a specific signaling pathway helps skin wounds heal faster but may lead to larger scars.
research Alpha-Parvin Is Required for Epidermal Morphogenesis, Hair Follicle Development, and Basal Keratinocyte Polarity
α-parvin is necessary for skin and hair growth and for the correct orientation of skin cells.
research Skin Biology
Current therapies cannot fully regenerate adult skin without scars; more research is needed for scar-free healing.
research The Function and Structure of the Skin
The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.
research Lineage Potential, Plasticity, and Environmental Reprogramming of Epithelial Stem/Progenitor Cells
Environmental cues can change the fate and function of epithelial cells, with potential for cell therapy.
research The Effect of Experimental Hypothyroidism on the Skin of Adult Male Albino Rats and the Therapeutic Role of Topical Triiodothyronine
Hypothyroidism harms rat skin, but topical triiodothyronine may help improve it.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The document concludes that the skin is a complex organ providing protection, sensation, and healing, with challenges in treating conditions like itchiness.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Role of Stem Cells in Skin Maintenance, Regeneration, and Repair: Focus on Epidermis and Pilosebaceous Units
The document concluded that stem cells are crucial for skin repair, regeneration, and may help in developing advanced skin substitutes.
research Epidermal Homeostasis: A Balancing Act of Stem Cells in the Skin
Skin stem cells are crucial for maintaining and repairing the skin and hair, using a complex mix of signals to do so.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cells: Walking the Maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Topographical and Developmental Studies on Target Sites of 1,25 (OH)₂ Vitamin D₃ in Skin
Vitamin D3 affects cell differentiation in specific skin areas.
research Keratinocytes Regulate the Function of Melanocytes
Keratinocytes control how melanocytes work.
research BLIMP1 Is Required for Postnatal Epidermal Homeostasis but Does Not Define a Sebaceous Gland Progenitor Under Steady-State Conditions
BLIMP1 is essential for skin maintenance but not for defining sebaceous gland progenitors.
research Type I Keratin 17 Protein Is Phosphorylated on Serine 44 by p90 Ribosomal Protein S6 Kinase 1 in a Growth- and Stress-Dependent Fashion
Keratin 17 is modified by RSK1 in response to growth and stress, affecting skin growth and stress response.
research Keratin and Skin Disorders
Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.
research Expression Profiling Reveals Genes Involved in the Regulation of Wool Follicle Bulb Regression and Regeneration in Sheep
The research identified genes and pathways important for sheep wool growth and shedding.
research Stimulatory Effect of Brazilian Propolis on Hair Growth Through Proliferation of Keratinocytes in Mice
Brazilian propolis was found to speed up hair growth in mice by increasing the growth of skin cells that form hair.
research Fine Structure and Immunocytochemistry of Monotreme Hairs, with Emphasis on the Inner Root Sheath and Trichohyalin-Based Cornification During Hair Evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research Effects of Food-Derived Collagen Peptides on the Expression of Keratin and Keratin-Associated Protein Genes in Mouse Skin
Eating collagen peptides may help with skin and hair growth.
research A Function for Rac1 in the Terminal Differentiation and Pigmentation of Hair
Rac1 is essential for proper hair structure and color.
research Tp63-Expressing Adult Epithelial Stem Cells Cross Lineage Boundaries Revealing Latent Hairy Skin Competence
Adult stem cells with Tp63 can form hair and skin cells when placed in new skin, showing they have hidden abilities for skin repair.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The skin has multiple layers and cells, serves as a protective barrier, helps regulate temperature, enables sensation, affects appearance, and is involved in vitamin D synthesis.
research Self-Organized Skin Equivalent by Epithelial and Fibroblast Cells on Polycaprolactone Electrospun Mat with Porous Fibers
