July 2016 in “Journal of Dermatological Science” This study found that stable regeneration of pigmented hairs in mice after severe wounding can occur when the wound is made during the anagen stage, influenced by Wnt and Kit signaling pathways.
January 2018 in “Stem cell biology and regenerative medicine” This review discusses the interplay between signaling/transcription factor-mediated and epigenetic mechanisms in skin development and regeneration, highlighting the need for further exploration of epigenome reorganization in these processes.
