April 1936 in “Journal of Experimental Biology” This study found that injecting thymus gland extracts into albino rats significantly accelerated growth and morphological differentiation across generations, including earlier sexual maturation and development of features like hair and teeth.
In this study, Sox13 was identified as a novel marker for early hair follicle development and differentiation in mice, though it appears to be dispensable for overall epidermal and adnexal development.

March 2004 in “The Journal of Urology” In this study, researchers used a hypospadiac rat model to demonstrate abnormal genital development, similar to human penoscrotal hypospadias, highlighting the model's value for studying penile growth and differentiation.

July 1964 in “PubMed” This study observed that undifferentiated matrix cells at the base of the hair follicle differentiate into the medulla, cortex, cuticle, and inner root sheath cell types through specific morphological changes.

January 2005 in “BioEssays” This review introduces the morphological and molecular principles of hair follicle development but reports no new experimental results, focusing on recent insights and forming a working hypothesis.
