  • Development and Maintenance of Epidermal Stem Cells in Skin Adnexa
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Development and Maintenance of Epidermal Stem Cells in Skin Adnexa Jaroslav Mokry * and Rishikaysh Pisal Medical Faculty, Charles University, 500 03 Hradec Kralove, Czech Republic; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 30 October 2020; Accepted: 18 December 2020; Published: 20 December 2020 Abstract: The skin surface is modified by numerous appendages. These structures arise from epithelial stem cells (SCs) through the induction of epidermal placodes as a result of local signalling interplay with mesenchymal cells based on the Wnt–(Dkk4)–Eda–Shh cascade. Slight modifications of the cascade, with the participation of antagonistic signalling, decide whether multipotent epidermal SCs develop in interfollicular epidermis, scales, hair/feather follicles, nails or skin glands. This review describes the roles of epidermal SCs in the development of skin adnexa and interfollicular epidermis, as well as their maintenance. Each skin structure arises from distinct pools of epidermal SCs that are harboured in specific but different niches that control SC behaviour. Such relationships explain differences in marker and gene expression patterns between particular SC subsets. The activity of well-compartmentalized epidermal SCs is orchestrated with that of other skin cells not only along the hair cycle but also in the course of skin regeneration following injury. This review highlights several membrane markers, cytoplasmic proteins and transcription factors associated with epidermal SCs. Keywords: stem cell; epidermal placode; skin adnexa; signalling; hair pigmentation; markers; keratins 1. Epidermal Stem Cells as Units of Development 1.1.

  • The Nail Bed, Part I. the Normal Nail Bed Matrix, Stem Cells, Distal Motion and Anatomy
    Central Journal of Dermatology and Clinical Research Review Article *Corresponding author Nardo Zaias, Department of Dermatology Mount Sinai Medical Center, Miami Beach, FL. 33140, 4308 The Nail Bed, Part I. The Normal Alton rd. Suite 750, USA, Email: [email protected] Submitted: 25 November 2013 Nail Bed Matrix, Stem Cells, Distal Accepted: 28 December 2013 Published: 31 December 2013 Copyright Motion and Anatomy © 2014 Zaias Nardo Zaias* OPEN ACCESS Department of Dermatology Mount Sinai Medical Center, USA Abstract The nail bed (NB) has its own matrix that originates from distinctive stem cells. The nail bed matrix stem cells (NBMSC) lie immediately distal to the nail plate (NP) matrix cells and are covered by the keratogenous zone of the most distal NPM (LUNULA). The undivided NBMS cells move distally along the NB basement membrane toward the hyponychium; differentiating and keratinizing at various locations, acting as transit amplifying cells and forming a thin layer of NB corneocytes that contact the overlying onychocytes of the NP, homologous to the inner hair root sheath. At the contact point, the NB corneocytes express CarcinoEmbryonic Antigen (CEA), a glycoprotein-modulating adherence which is also found in hair follicles and tumors. Only when both the NP and the NB are normal do they synchronously move distally. The normal NB keratinizes, expressing keratin K-5 and K-17 without keratohyaline granules. However, during trauma or disease states, it reverts to keratinization with orthokeratosis and expresses K-10, as seen in developmental times. Psoriasis is the only exception. Nail Bed epidermis can express hyperplasia and giant cells in some diseases.

Because of its poor prognosis and short matrix-to-bone distance, amputation has been traditionally performed. Recently, conservative surgery has been attempted for early subungual melanoma, but the evidence supporting this practice is sparse. As little is known about the progression pattern of subungual melanoma, further advances on the subject may provide better guidance on the optimal surgical approach. Histopathology slides, clinical records, and photographs of 23 cases of subungual melanoma were reviewed. For all cases, each area of the nail unit—proximal nail fold, nail matrix, nail bed, and/or hyponychium—in longitudinal sections was available for histological examination. Growth pattern, dermal invasion, and thickness were assessed in each area of the nail unit. There were five cases of melanoma in situ. Eighteen cases showed dermal invasion in at least one area of the nail unit.

Rice4 · Leopold Eckhart1 Published online: 14 December 2018 © The Author(s) 2018 Abstract Epidermal keratinocytes undergo cornification to form the cellular building blocks of hard skin appendages such as nails and the protective layer on the surface of the skin. Cornification requires the cross-linking of structural proteins and the removal of other cellular components to form mechanically rigid and inert corneocytes. Autophagy has been proposed to contribute to this intracellular remodelling process, but its molecular targets in keratinocytes, if any, have remained elusive. Here, we deleted the essential autophagy factor Atg7 in K14-positive epithelia of mice and determined by proteomics the impact of this deletion on the abundance of individual proteins in cornified nails. The genetic suppression of autophagy in keratinocytes resulted in a significant increase in the number of proteins that survived cornification and in alterations of their abundance in the nail proteome.

  • The Biology and Science of Hair, Skin and Nails Hair There Are
    900 E. Hill Ave Suite 380 Knoxville, TN 37915 www.athomeprep.com 1-800-952-0910 The Biology and Science of Hair, Skin and Nails Hair There are approximately 5 million hair follicles on the body with 100-150 thousand located on the scalp. By 22 weeks gestation, the fetus has all of the hair follicles that it will ever have and no more are added during its lifetime. The hair follicles are more dense as a young child and become less so as our body grows. The primary functions of hair are protection against UV rays and heat loss. Hair cells are called trichocytes and are among the most rapidly dividing cells in the body - doubling every 23-72 hours. The trichocytes are located in the hair follicle, which in turn is located in the dermis of the skin. Each hair follicle has a follicular papilla which is fed by capillaries (small blood vessels). The papilla surrounds the bulb from which the hair grows. This entire complex is located in the dermis of the skin overlying the cranium (also known as the scalp). The follicle has two layers, an outer and an inner. The outer layer continues up to the sebaceous gland and the inner follows the hair shaft and ends below the opening of the sebaceous gland. Each follicle also contains an arrector pili muscle which attaches to the outer sheath just below the sebaceous gland. This causes hair to stand on end when you are frightened or scared or cold. The sebaceous gland produces sebum which acts as a natural conditioner.
