This study found that the HoxC gene cluster plays a critical role in the development of ectodermal organs, including hair and nails, with mammalian-specific enhancers increasing transcription levels during development.

This study found that lncRNA RP11-818024.3 transfection promoted hair growth in AGA mice and increased cellular proliferation in vitro, potentially involving the FGF2 and PI3K-Akt pathways.

The Dfl mutation in mice causes poor sebaceous gland function and complete hair loss.

Slug (Snai2) helps regulate hair growth timing in mice.

This study found that a heterozygous missense mutation in ATR is associated with a hereditary cancer syndrome, manifested by oropharyngeal cancer and other anomalies, in an autosomal-dominant inheritance pattern across a five-generation family.

This study found that the trichogenicity of cultured human outer root sheath follicular keratinocytes decreased with longer cultivation periods and was significantly influenced by the expression of the transcription factor FOXA2.

In this study, researchers found that reducing FGF20 expression in dermal papilla cells of fine-wool sheep impedes the growth and differentiation of hair follicle stem cells, providing insights into wool trait improvement and regenerative medicine applications.

This review discusses the mechanisms and pathways of FGFR signalling and its roles in development, disorders, and therapeutic targeting, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Acvr1b signaling is crucial for both hair follicle development and cycling in mice, with the genetic disruption leading to hair loss and a thickened epidermis.

This study demonstrated that Wnt5a can serve as an orienting signal for mouse skin's planar cell polarity but its overexpression disrupts hair follicle orientation, which can be rescued by modifying Fzd6 levels.

This study identified key regions and transcription factors, including SIX1 and FOXN1 itself, that regulate Foxn1 expression in thymic epithelial cells and hair follicle cells, offering insights into its transcriptional regulation.

This study found that an SNP in the FGFR2 gene, rs4752566, was significantly associated with hair thickness in Asian populations, suggesting an effect on hair morphology through altered FGFR2 expression levels.

This study identified a 69 bp deletion in the KRT75 gene as the cause of the frizzle feather trait in chickens, affecting feather curling.

This study suggests that hairlessness in nude mice may be due to insufficient expression of phospholipase C-δ1, a molecule essential for normal hair development downstream of the Foxn1 gene.

This study found that overexpression of the lncRNA AC010789.1 in hair follicle stem cells may suppress androgen alopecia progression by modulating several molecular pathways, suggesting a potential new treatment strategy.

This study reveals that β-catenin and retinoic acid are key regulators in the gene networks controlling the fate of skin appendages, such as scales and feathers.

This study suggests that frontal fibrosing alopecia is a highly inflammatory disease involving TH1 and JAK-STAT pathways, without reduced hair keratins, highlighting JAK-STAT signaling as a potential therapeutic target.

This study found that ACKR2 plays a crucial role in reducing inflammatory skin fibrosis and promoting inflammation resolution through IFN‐β production, limiting tissue scarring.

This study identified key genes involved in feather follicle development in Wannan chickens, finding that genes such as LAMC2, COL6A3, and WNT7A are crucial in the regulation processes, potentially aiding molecular breeding programs for improved carcass appearance traits.

This review discusses the role of Foxc1 and type XVII collagen in hair follicle stem cell quiescence and aging, identifying mechanisms that relate to hair thinning and hair loss, and reports no new results.

This study found that full-length Agouti protein modulates melanocortin receptor signaling through a dual mechanism involving competitive antagonism and receptor down-regulation, whereas the carboxyl-terminal fragment acts solely as a competitive antagonist.

This study highlighted the effectiveness of HT-scCAT-seq as a tool for understanding gene regulation in single cells, offering insights into embryonic skin development and proposing a framework for exploring regulatory mechanisms in various biological and disease contexts.

Overexpression of certain genes can shorten hair by disrupting the hair-growth cycle.

This study suggests that Foxn1 acts as a brake on PKC signaling in keratinocytes, thereby modulating the stages of differentiation by controlling PKC activity.

In this study, a genetic analysis identified a pathogenic variant in the ALOXE3 gene associated with non-bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma, and the patient's response to antifungal treatment highlights the risk of cutaneous fungal infections.

This study found that FOXN1 haploinsufficiency is a significant genetic factor causing T cell lymphopenia at birth, linked to reduced thymic function in both humans and mice.

In this study, researchers used the CRISPR/Cas9 system to edit the FGF5 gene in Dorper sheep, observing increased density and finer wool, along with changes in cortisol levels and antioxidant enzyme activity linked to hair follicle development.

This study found that despite the persistence of aberrant double-negative T-cells, functional immune-competence was maintained after thymic transplantation in a patient with a rare FOXN1 mutation.

This study found that Foxp1, a transcriptional factor, plays a key role in regulating hair follicle stem cell proliferation by modulating oxidative stress and the cell cycle during hair growth phases.

In this study, the Foxn1(-/-) nude phenotype was associated with an altered regulation of epithelial progeny in skin, offering a valuable model for investigating stem cell niche maintenance and regulation.
