April 2001 in “Current Biology” This study found that transient activation of c-Myc in transgenic mice stimulates keratinocyte proliferation and sebocyte differentiation, affecting normal epidermal and hair follicle development.

,
July 2002 in “EMBO journal” This study found that RXRα/RARγ heterodimers are necessary for retinoic acid-induced keratinocyte proliferation in the skin, while normal epidermal maintenance does not require RAR-mediated signaling.

November 2010 in “Development” In this study, epidermal Notch activation increased jagged 1 expression, leading to skin changes like thickening and blistering, with these effects inhibited when jagged 1 was absent.

May 2021 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that disrupting Lm332 expression in mice changes keratinocyte genetic expression, alters cell shape, and disrupts epidermal homeostasis, despite some compensatory anchorage by hair follicle basal cells.
April 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that an E-cadherin mutant preserved normal cadherin levels and prevented inflammation and lethality in mouse skin lacking p120, highlighting p120's role in regulating cadherin-mediated cell adhesion and inflammation.
