July 2023 in “Communications biology” In this study, researchers found that deleting Med1, a key epigenetic regulator in dental epithelia, led to hair growth on mouse incisors by altering enhancer landscapes and causing a switch from dental to hair lineage transcription programs.
September 2022 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that the deletion of Med1 in dental epithelia causes a shift from dental to hair tissue development, suggesting the importance of Med1 in maintaining tissue-specific lineage.
