,
March 2021 in “Experimental dermatology” This review discusses recent progress in understanding the cellular mechanisms of sebaceous gland development and maintenance, emphasizing the role of stem and progenitor cells in related skin pathologies, and reports no new results.
10 citations

June 2016 in “Cell Transplantation” This study suggests that using sebaceous glands from rat tail skin samples may effectively capture hair follicle stem cells, potentially aiding skin regenerative medicine when available tissue is limited.
April 2018 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” The authors concluded that Lrig1-positive stem cells are essential for sebaceous gland formation in mice, as their ablation led to temporary sebaceous gland disappearance without affecting hair growth.

January 2015 in “Scientific Reports” This study found that the GPR39 receptor plays a novel role in accelerating wound healing in mouse skin, although it is not essential for skin development or homeostasis.
