April 2021 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” People with atopic dermatitis have more CD4+ T cells that respond to a certain bacterial lipid, which may play a role in the skin condition's inflammation.
September 2023 in “Frontiers in cell and developmental biology” Vav2 changes how hair follicle stem cells' genes work as they age, which might improve regeneration but also raise cancer risk.
1 citations,
December 2023 in “npj biofilms and microbiomes” Single-cell engineered biotherapeutics show promise for skin treatment but need more research and trials.
March 2024 in “Frontiers in genetics” Different types of fibroblasts play specific roles in wound healing and cancer, which could help improve treatments.

May 2015 in “Cell Stem Cell” 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.
