January 2005 in “The International Journal of Developmental Biology” This study found that Hex gene expression patterns in chick embryo dorsal skin during feather bud development suggest a significant role in initiating feather morphogenesis.
25 citations

May 2013 in “Journal of mammary gland biology and neoplasia” This review examines the roles of Hedgehog and Gli proteins in mouse embryonic mammary development and suggests that Gli3-repressor-mediated off-state of Hedgehog signaling determines mammary fate over hair follicle fate.
318 citations

October 1998 in “The Journal of Cell Biology” This study found that ectopic expression of the lymphoid-enhancer factor can induce K17 protein in the skin, suggesting a link between skin development and wound repair processes in mice.
33 citations
,
June 2007 in “Gene Expression Patterns” This study found that CTIP2 is highly expressed in mouse skin during embryogenesis and adulthood, suggesting it may play a role in skin development and homeostasis.
