October 2006 in “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences” This study suggests that folliculin, mutated in Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome, and its partner FNIP1 may play a role in energy and nutrient sensing through the AMPK and mTOR pathways.
February 2024 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” In this study, the deletion of NIPP1 in keratinocytes led to chronic skin inflammation and epidermal changes in mice, with early cell-cycle arrest and premature senescence observed, potentially contributing to reduced mutagen sensitivity.

January 2020 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study shows that NIPP1 deficiency in mouse epidermis leads to hyperproliferation, hair loss, and chronic skin inflammation, which can be partially alleviated by dexamethasone treatment.
May 2018 in “The journal of immunology/The Journal of immunology” This study identified that patients with compound heterozygous mutations in FOXN1 exhibited severe T-cell lymphopenia but retained normal hair and nail development, indicating a distinct clinical phenotype from classic FOXN1 cases.
May 2017 in “The journal of immunology/The Journal of immunology” This study reported that patients with specific Foxn1 mutations exhibited severe T-cell lymphopenia without the hair and nail abnormalities usually associated with these mutations.
