Skin Stem Cells
author
Abstract:
The future development of medicine will greatly depend on research, knowledge and clinical application of stem cells. In recent years, stem cells especially; skin stem cells have been very interesting and amazing targets for study and scientific application in the following fields : 1- Cell-based therapy; 2- Regenerative medicine and tissue engineering; 3- Gene therapy; 4- Therapeutic cloning; 5- More efficient new drugs with fewer side effects.

Stem cells and skin regeneration.
Stem cells represent a great hope for regenerative medicine. In adult life, stem cell deposits are kept in organ niches; the need for tissue or organ regeneration mobilizes stem cells via the SDF-1-CXCR4 regulation axis. Constant regeneration of the skin is achieved due to stem cell differentiation within the epidermis and the hair follicle; thus, skin may serve as an excellent source of stem c...

Background: Skin flap procedures are employed in plastic surgery, but failure can lead to necrosis of the flap. Studies have used bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) to improve flap viability. BM-MSCs and acellular amniotic membrane (AAM) have been introduced as alternatives. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of BM-MSCs and AAM on mast cells of random skin flaps (R...

mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) could differentiate into various types of tissues. these cells serve as a backup for the regeneration and repair of tissues or cells after injury. a skin wound is defined as an injury to the skin that needs to be restored. all types of cells in skin especially mesenchymal stem cells play important role in wound healing process. in particular, paracrine signaling of...
full textSkin Stem Cells - Methods and Protocols
One of the most accessible source of stem cells, the skin, is here disvealed thanks to a mass of great histological, physiological, biochemical and stem cell biology details while providing step by step elegantly illustrated methods for isolation, characterization, maintenance and differentiation of skin stem cells. Details so much needed since eventhough we are dealing with one of the most acc...
full textReconstituted Skin from Murine Embryonic Stem Cells
Embryonic stem (ES) cell lines can be expanded indefinitely in culture while maintaining their potential to differentiate into any cell type. During embryonic development, the skin forms as a result of reciprocal interactions between mesoderm and ectoderm. Here, we report the in vitro differentiation and enrichment of keratinocytes from murine ES cells seeded on extracellular matrix (ECM) in th...
