research Keratinocyte Cytokine Networks Associated With Human Melanocytic Nevus Development

5 citations , September 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

Keratinocyte cytokines and genetic variations influence the development of moles and skin pigmentation.

research Comprehensive Transcriptome Profiling of Balding and Non-Balding Scalps in Trichorhinophalangeal Syndrome Type I Patient

9 citations , January 2017 in “Annals of Dermatology”

In this study of a TRPS type I patient, many genes related to keratin and hair development were down-regulated in balding scalp areas, providing new insights into TRPS and hair morphogenesis.

research Trichorhinophalangeal Syndrome with Low Expression of TRPS1 on Epidermal and Hair Follicle Epithelial Cells

16 citations , March 2013 in “The Journal of Dermatology”

This case report identifies a novel mutation in a patient with trichorhinophalangeal syndrome 1 and reduced TRPS 1 protein expression in hair follicle tissues compared to normal subjects.

research Trps1 Activates a Network of Secreted Wnt Inhibitors and Transcription Factors Crucial to Vibrissa Follicle Morphogenesis

59 citations , November 2011 in “Development”

This study found that the transcription factor Trps1 acts as a novel regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway and early hair follicle progenitors in developing vibrissa follicles in mice.

research The Disruption of Sox21-Mediated Hair Shaft Cuticle Differentiation Causes Cyclic Alopecia in Mice

73 citations , May 2009 in “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences”

This study found that disrupting the Sox21 gene in mice led to progressive hair loss and regrowth, identifying Sox21 as a key regulator of hair shaft cuticle differentiation.
