April 2016 in “Cell Reports” This study demonstrated that EdnrB signaling promotes melanocyte stem cell proliferation and differentiation, enhancing hair and epidermal melanocyte regeneration, especially under conditions of active Wnt signaling.
66 citations
,
July 2015 in “Journal of Molecular Biology” This review discusses how macro-environmental factors such as intradermal adipose tissue and sex hormones influence hair and feather stem cell niches, suggesting environmental targets for regenerative medicine, but reports no new clinical results.
28 citations
,
November 2012 in “Experimental dermatology” This study suggests that mTORC1 may play a role in regulating the timing of hair growth cycle phases, particularly the initiation of the anagen phase.
260 citations
,
June 2011 in “Cell” This study found that Wnt signaling in the hair follicle is crucial for coordinating the behavior of epithelial and melanocyte stem cells, which drives hair regeneration and melanocyte differentiation in mice.
95 citations
,
July 2010 in “Genes & development” In this study, the researchers reported that Notch/CSL signaling is crucial for hair follicle differentiation, with Wnt5a signaling and FoxN1 acting as mediators in mice.
109 citations
,
June 2000 in “Development” This study reports that activating Notch signaling in the hair follicle cortex of transgenic mice caused abnormal differentiation of the medulla and cuticle, highlighting potential cell-cell interactions.
