We first addressed whether oriented cell divisions participate in stratification during epidermal development. At embryonic day 12.5 (E12.5), most of the epidermis was single-layered, and most ...

When wounds of intermediate depth occur, hair-follicle stem cells migrate to the wound and adopt the function, form, and gene-expression pattern of epidermal stem cells. However, a mouse model show ...

New insights into skin cells could explain why our skin doesn't leak Date: November 29, 2016 Source: Imperial College London Summary: The discovery of the shape and binding capability of epidermal ...

Human embryonic stem cells derivatives enable full reconstruction of the pluristratified epidermis. The Lancet, volume 374, number 9703, 21 November 2009 , 2009; 374 (9703): 1745-1753 DOI: 10.1016 ...

As a cell prepares to divide, its cell cortex proteins begin to move. First, its cortical proteins form an excitable wave, like spectators performing "the wave" at a football stadium.

At the 2-year mark, some 20 epidermal cell divisions later, "all biological and clinical measures were fine, stable, robust, and the functionality quite good," Dr De Luca said.

Researchers at the ULB – IRIBHM and ULB Neuroscience Institute – have tested the therapeutic potential of cortical neurons generated at the laboratory, by transplantation in the brains of ...

- Professor June M. Kwak’s team at DGIST uncovered the cause and mechanism behind the transformation of residual cells in abscission zones into epidermal cells - The research findings were ...
