Research cited in this study

11 / 11 results

research Transcriptome Sequencing Reveals Differences Between Primary and Secondary Hair Follicle-Derived Dermal Papilla Cells of the Cashmere Goat

81 citations , September 2013 in “PLoS ONE”

This study identified gene expression differences between dermal papilla cells from primary and secondary hair follicles in Cashmere goats, highlighting their roles in hair follicle morphogenesis.

research Tuning Wnt Signals for More or Fewer Hairs

39 citations , January 2013 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

This review explains how recent understanding of Wnt signaling regulation in hair follicles could potentially be used to enhance hair growth, but it reports no new empirical results.

research Adenovirus-Mediated Wnt10b Overexpression Induces Hair Follicle Regeneration

77 citations , July 2012 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

The researchers observed that overexpression of Wnt10b in a mouse model can induce hair follicle regeneration by switching follicles from the resting phase to the growth phase via the Wnt-β-catenin signaling pathway.

research Self-Organizing and Stochastic Behaviors During the Regeneration of Hair Stem Cells

176 citations , April 2011 in “Science”

This study found that in a population of hair follicles, regenerative cycling stages are regulated by both intrinsic and extrinsic signals, with WNT/BMP signaling mediating interactions among follicles for adaptability.

research Fundamental Hair Follicle Biology and Fine Fibre Production in Animals

170 citations , January 2010 in “animal”

This review discusses the biology of hair follicles across various species and their role in fiber quality, but reports no new experimental findings.

research The Hair Cycle

375 citations , February 2006 in “Journal of Cell Science”

This article reviews the stages and regulation of the hair cycle, highlighting molecular regulators involved, but it does not present new research findings.

research Molecular Biology of Hair Morphogenesis: Development and Cycling

155 citations , August 2003 in “Journal Of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular And Developmental Evolution”

This review discusses the conserved molecular mechanisms controlling hair follicle development and cycling and suggests they may also apply to other ectodermal derivatives, like teeth and feathers, but it reports no new results.

research Molecular Mechanisms Regulating Hair Follicle Development

854 citations , February 2002 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology”

This review summarizes recent advances in understanding the molecular mechanisms of hair follicle formation and discusses potential future clinical applications for treating hair loss and skin tumors, but it reports no new clinical results.

research Genetically Null Mice Reveal a Central Role for Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor in the Differentiation of the Hair Follicle and Normal Hair Development

107 citations , June 1997 in “PubMed”

In this study, disrupting the epidermal growth factor receptor in mice led to abnormal hair and skin development, characterized by disorganized hair follicles and systemic disease, providing a model for understanding EGFR's role in skin biology.

research Epidermal Growth Factor Delays Development of Epidermis and Hair Follicles in Mice During First Coat Growth

72 citations , January 1983 in “The Anatomical Record”

This study found that epidermal growth factor treatment in male mice delayed normal skin development, inhibiting hair growth and follicle development by maintaining birth-level cell proliferation and differentiation for several days.

research Effects of Epidermal Growth Factor on Hair Growth in the Mouse

84 citations , February 1981 in “Journal of Endocrinology”

This study found that epidermal growth factor decreased hair growth rate and altered hair characteristics in neonatal mice, with some effects persisting into subsequent hair generations.
