Researchers from The Rockefeller University have shown how the sensor system operates in hair follicles.
Hair follicles have a well-known cycle of birth, decay , and regeneration put into motion by hair follicle stem cells.
A duo of sensors works in tandem to pick up signals from both dying and living cells.
The findings have applications beyond the hair follicle.
In regions of the brain, breasts, and lungs, epithelial and mesenchymal tissue cells moonlight as ersatz phagocytes.
For our body’s stem cells, this may be their way of keeping tissues fit by clearing out naturally dying cells.
