October 1996 in “Development” Hair growth can be stimulated by combining certain skin cells, which can rejuvenate old cells and cause them to specialize in hair follicle creation.
56 citations,
March 2015 in “Cell death and differentiation” Older skin has higher cancer risk due to inflammation and stem cell issues.
45 citations,
May 2003 in “Journal of Cell Science” α3β1-integrin is crucial for maintaining normal hair follicle shape and function but not needed for the development of the surrounding skin.

5 citations,
December 2020 in “Experimental dermatology” A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.
2 citations,
January 2022 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Hedgehog signaling in skin cells is crucial for hair growth and skin healing, but needs to be balanced to avoid harmful effects like scarring and cancer.
1 citations,
February 2016 in “Cell Transplantation” Hair follicles have a more inactive cell cycle than other skin cells, which may help develop targeted therapies for skin diseases and cancer.
