May 2000 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study demonstrated that blocking the Sonic hedgehog signaling pathway in mice led to reversible inhibition of body coat hair morphogenesis, while whisker development was unaffected.
May 2026 in “Scientific Reports” In this study, researchers overexpressed Lrig3 in mouse skin and observed hair loss linked to changes in skin protein profiles and signaling pathways, suggesting a potential role for Lrig3 in maintaining skin homeostasis.
