Principles and mechanisms of regeneration in the mouse model for wound‐induced hair follicle neogenesis
Wound induced hair follicle neogenesis (WIHN) describes a regenerative phenomenon in adult mammalian skin, wherein fully functional hair follicles regenerate de novo in the center of large excisional wounds. Originally described in rats, rabbits, sheep, and humans in 1940-60, the WIHN phenomenon was reinvestigated in mice only recently. The process of de novo hair regeneration largely duplicate...
متن کاملProstaglandin D2 inhibits wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis through the receptor, Gpr44
Prostaglandins (PGs) are key inflammatory mediators involved in wound healing and regulating hair growth; however, their role in skin regeneration after injury is unknown. Using wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis (WIHN) as a marker of skin regeneration, we hypothesized that PGD2 decreases follicle neogenesis. PGE2 and PGD2 were elevated early and late, respectively, during wound healing. Th...
متن کاملTherapeutic strategy for hair regeneration: hair cycle activation, niche environment modulation, wound-induced follicle neogenesis, and stem cell engineering.
INTRODUCTION There are major new advancements in the fields of stem cell biology, developmental biology, regenerative hair cycling, and tissue engineering. The time is ripe to integrate, translate, and apply these findings to tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Readers will learn about new progress in cellular and molecular aspects of hair follicle development, regeneration, and poten...
متن کاملCelecoxib inhibits interleukin-6/interleukin-6 receptor-induced JAK2/STAT3 phosphorylation in human hepatocellular carcinoma cells.
Growing evidence shows an association between chronic liver inflammation and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development. STAT3, which is associated with inflammation and cellular transformation, is constitutively activated in human HCC tissues but not in normal human liver tissues. Although interleukin-6 (IL-6) is elevated in the serum of patients with HCC, it is not fully understood whether ST...
متن کاملMethamphetamine-induced neurotoxicity is attenuated in transgenic mice with a null mutation for interleukin-6.
Increasing evidence implicates apoptosis as a major mechanism of cell death in methamphetamine (METH) neurotoxicity. The involvement of a neuroimmune component in apoptotic cell death after injury or chemical damage suggests that cytokines may play a role in METH effects. In the present study, we examined if the absence of IL-6 in knockout (IL-6-/-) mice could provide protection against METH-in...
