research Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Sensory Neuron and Merkel-Cell Remodeling During Epidermal Homeostasis
Merkel cells stabilize nerve endings in the skin, and they change independently of each other.
research LGR5 Is a Conserved Marker of Hair Follicle Stem Cells Across Species and Is Present Early and Throughout Follicle Morphogenesis
LGR5 is a marker found in hair follicle stem cells in various species and is important for hair growth and skin repair.
research A Niche Above: A Novel Modality of Stem Cell Regulation in Mammalian Skin Epidermis
Skin cell behavior is influenced by the tightness of nearby cells, affecting their growth and development.
research Identification of Two Distinct Stem Cell Clusters, Lrig1-Derived and Wnt/CD44-Dependent, in Corneal Epithelium
The conclusion is that the cornea has two types of stem cells, with Lrig1+ cells being key for renewal in aging corneas, independent of CD44.
research Deciphering the Role of the Hexosamine Pathway in Skin Homeostasis
The hexosamine pathway helps maintain healthy skin by affecting the skin's structure and possibly increasing hair follicle stem cells.
research Design of an In Vitro Skin 3D Model Mimicking a Disruption of the Barrier Function
Activating the hexosamine pathway can improve skin health and increase hair follicle stem cells.
research Deciphering the Role of the Hexosamine Pathway in Skin Homeostasis
The hexosamine pathway helps protect skin cells from stress and may improve skin and hair health.
research Watching Hair Grow: Intravital Two-Photon Imaging of Hair Follicle Regeneration in Transgenic Mice
Hair grows when stem cell offspring in the follicle base proliferate, influenced by the dermal papilla.
research Ligand-Dependent Wnt Signaling Attenuates Mechanotransduction and Protects Against Wound Occlusion-Mediated Abolishment of Hair Follicle Regeneration
Covering a wound can stop hair growth by promoting scarring, but boosting a process called Wnt signaling can help hair grow back even when the wound is covered.
research Prostaglandin D2 Inhibits Hair Growth and Is Elevated in Bald Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
A substance called prostaglandin D2 is found more in bald scalps and it stops hair from growing. Blocking its receptor could potentially treat hair loss.
research Live Imaging of Stem Cell and Progeny Behavior in Physiological Hair-Follicle Regeneration
Scientists used a special imaging technique to observe that hair follicle regeneration involves cell division and structural changes, mostly in the lower part of the follicle, and that the dermal papilla at the base is crucial for regrowth.
research Prostaglandin D2 Inhibits Hair Growth and Is Elevated in Bald Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Prostaglandin D2, found in higher levels in bald scalps, stops hair growth, suggesting that blocking its receptor could potentially treat hair loss.
research Sic Transit Gloria: Farewell to the Epidermal Transit Amplifying Cell?
New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.
research Hair Transplantation in Mice: Challenges and Solutions
Researchers successfully transplanted hair follicles in mice, which survived well and helped in wound healing.
research Molecular Network of Smads and Id2 Genes in Hair Follicle Stem Cells Regulation
The BMP/Smads pathway and Id2 gene control hair follicle stem cells, affecting their rest and growth phases.
research Light-Emitting Hair Follicles: Studying Skin Regeneration With In Vivo Imaging
Scientists developed tools to observe hair regeneration in real time and assess skin health, using glowing mice and light-controlled genes.
research Control of Pelage Hair Follicle Development and Cycling by Complex Interactions Between Follistatin and Activin
Follistatin helps hair growth and cycling, while activin prevents it.
research A Definitive Role of Ornithine Decarboxylase in Photocarcinogenesis
Inhibiting ODC can prevent UV-induced skin cancer.
research Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway Activates Melanocyte Stem Cells In Vitro and In Vivo
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway can activate melanocyte stem cells and may help regenerate hair follicles.
research Co-Factors of LIM Domains (Clims/Ldb/Nli) Regulate Corneal Homeostasis and Maintenance of Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Clim proteins are essential for maintaining healthy corneas and hair follicles.
research Insertional Mutation of the Hairless Locus on Mouse Chromosome 14
A gene mutation in mice causes permanent hair loss and skin issues.
research LGR5 Is a Conserved Marker of Hair Follicle Stem Cells in Multiple Species and Is Present Early and Throughout Follicle Morphogenesis
