Thymosin β4 and VEGF are important for organ function and may help with blood vessel formation.

MILL molecules are unique immune proteins in mice that don't need TAP to appear on cell surfaces.

Innate lymphoid cells help control skin bacteria by regulating sebaceous glands.

The document concludes that understanding how the skin's immune system and inflammation work is complex and requires more research to improve treatments for skin diseases.

Epidermal stem cells are diverse and vary in activity, playing key roles in skin maintenance and repair.

Matriptase is crucial for keeping epithelial tissues healthy and functioning properly.

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.

Thymosin β4 promotes hair growth by activating stem cells in hair follicles.

Animal models have helped understand hair loss from alopecia areata and find new treatments.

Keratin proteins are crucial for healthy skin, but mutations can cause skin disorders with no effective treatments yet.

Smad-4 and Smad-7 are key in hair follicle development, with other Smads being less important.

Older skin has higher cancer risk due to inflammation and stem cell issues.

Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.

Blocking JAK/STAT pathways can help treat hair loss from alopecia areata.

Activating Notch in adult skin causes T cells and neural crest cells to gather, leading to skin issues.

A new classification system for skin cysts was proposed to improve diagnosis.

Human scalp hair follicles can be used to study how prolactin affects hair growth and cell death.

A gene deletion in mice causes weak protein, immune issues, hair loss, airway problems, and wasting disease.

The method allows for 3D tracking of hair follicle stem cells and shows they can regenerate hair for up to 180 days.

Researchers created specific antibodies that detect a protein important in development and various conditions, and can be used for research and diagnosis.

Lymphocytic mural folliculitis in cats might be an early sign of pancreatic cancer.

CD99 is highly present in certain skin cells and could help treat skin conditions.

A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.

Fetal skin has unique immune cells different from adult skin.

T cells and bacteria in the gut and skin help maintain health and protect against disease.

DHT may reduce inflammation caused by certain bacteria in skin cells.

Mice without the vitamin D receptor have bone issues and other health problems, suggesting vitamin D is important for preventing various diseases in humans.

Melatonin affects many body functions beyond sleep by interacting with specific receptors in various tissues.

Nerve signals are crucial for hair follicle stem cells to become skin stem cells and help in wound healing.

Stress can worsen skin and hair conditions by affecting the skin's immune response and hormone levels.
