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.
2 citations
,
May 2023 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that sebaceous glands in the skin are primarily renewed by their own stem cells during normal conditions, but after injury, they regenerate through stem cells from hair follicles, highlighting stem cell plasticity and regeneration capabilities.
