December 2010 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that Acvr1b signaling is crucial for both hair follicle development and cycling in mice, with the genetic disruption leading to hair loss and a thickened epidermis.

April 2020 in “PloS one” This study found that mitochondrial dysfunction due to Crif1 deficiency in hair follicle stem cells significantly slows the hair growth cycle in adult mice but does not impact the maintenance of HFSC populations.
April 2016 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” In this study, Mpzl3-/- mice developed severe seborrhea-like dermatitis with skin inflammation, indicating MPZL3's role in the skin condition's development, independent of adaptive immunity.

November 2015 in “Plastic and reconstructive surgery/PSEF CD journals” This study found that human skin grafted onto certain immunodeficient mice resulted in proliferative scars with characteristics similar to human hypertrophic scars, suggesting these models may better represent the condition's natural history.
