research Multi-scale spatial mapping of cell populations across anatomical sites in healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma

1 citations , August 2023 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)”

This study created a detailed spatial atlas of healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma, revealing a potential hair follicle origin for basal cell carcinoma and expansion of certain mesenchymal cell populations.

research Tissue-scale tensional homeostasis in skin regulates structure and physiological function

47 citations , October 2020 in “Communications Biology”

This study found that maintaining tension-force balance in a human skin equivalent improved characteristics of skin homeostasis and structure, suggesting potential as an alternative to animal models for studying skin physiology.

research Skin Semiology and Grading Scales

1 citations , March 2013

The document concludes that dermatology training and grading scales need to better represent dark-skinned individuals to improve diagnosis and assessment of skin conditions.

research 1376 A multi-scale spatial atlas of human skin links cancer cell states to site of origin

April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

In this study, researchers developed a detailed spatial atlas of healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma, revealing that basal cell carcinoma likely originates from hair follicles and involves expansion of specific fibroblast subpopulations found in healthy skin.

Large-Scale Skin scRNA-Seq Profiling Highlights Distinct Body Site-Specific Ligand-Receptor Interactions and Pathways in Keratinocytes

research LB1671 Large-scale skin scRNA-seq profiling highlights distinct body site-specific ligand-receptor interactions and pathways in keratinocytes

August 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

This study using scRNA-seq on 96 skin biopsies from 51 healthy individuals revealed distinct cell signaling pathways in different skin sites, including unique pathways in facial and palmoplantar skin, which may explain their varying susceptibilities to skin disorders.
