November 2005 in “The journal of investigative dermatology. Symposium proceedings/The Journal of investigative dermatology symposium proceedings” This review discusses the role of Edar signaling in hair follicle development and cycling, emphasizing its impact on cell fate, differentiation, and interactions with other pathways, but reports no new results.
January 2016 in “Research Explorer (The University of Manchester)” Activating the Eda/Edar pathway improves wound healing by enhancing hair follicle growth.
