August 2024 In this study, researchers using single nuclei RNA-sequencing found that fibroblasts in deeper layers of mouse skin expressed higher levels of pro-inflammatory genes post-wounding compared to other cells, highlighting their significant role in early inflammation and tissue repair processes.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study identified a new role for IL-4Ra-induced oxidative metabolism in wound macrophages, essential for balancing inflammatory response and promoting pro-fibrotic repair, suggesting a target for fibrosis prevention.
September 2024 in “Journal of Inflammation Research” Results are not reported in this abstract, which outlines research investigating why diabetic mice experience suppressed hair follicle stem cell activation, potentially contributing to chronic diabetic wounds.
April 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that deleting Ube2n in adult mouse skin leads to inflammation and other skin changes, and identifies IRAK1/4 as potential treatment targets for inflammatory skin disorders.

November 2003 in “Veterinary pathology” This study showed that in C3H/HeJ mice, focal follicular inflammation starts before overt hair loss, with inflammation severity possibly reaching a threshold causing hair follicle dystrophy prior to visible hair loss.
