This review presents several aspects of the innovative concept of sebaceous
immunobiology, which summarizes the numerous activities of the sebaceous gland …

Matricellular proteins are secreted extracellular proteins that bear no primary structural
functions but play crucial roles in tissue remodeling during development, homeostasis, and …

The oral cavity is a multifunctional organ composed of structurally heterogeneous mucosal
tissues that remain poorly characterized. Oral mucosal tissues are highly stratified and …

Background Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has been widely applied to dissect
cellular heterogeneity in normal and diseased skin. Sebaceous glands, essential skin …

Sebaceous glands (SG) are essential for maintaining skin integrity, as their lipid-rich
secretion (sebum) lubricates and protects the epidermis and hairs. In addition, these glands …

A fundamental challenge in molecular biology is to understand how evolving genomes can
acquire new functions. Actively transcribed, non-coding parts of the genome provide a …

Adult stem cells play a critical role in maintaining tissue homeostasis and promoting
longevity. The intricate organization and presence of common markers among adult …

Summary Embigin (Gp70), a receptor for fibronectin and an ancillary protein for
monocarboxylate transporters, is known to regulate stem cell niches in sebaceous gland …
