This study found that Hoxc13-/- rabbits exhibit complete hair loss on the head and dorsum, providing a potential model for understanding human ECTD-9 and related dermatological conditions.

In this study on adult-onset, whole body Spry1/2/4 triple knockout mice, researchers observed endocrine abnormalities and no increased tumor incidence, despite similar food intake and motor function.

Mutations in β1 integrins cause embryonic death but have milder effects on skin.

This study found that homozygous mutant mice with a hypomorphic CD18 mutation developed a chronic inflammatory skin disease resembling human psoriasis, potentially implicating additional genetic factors in disease susceptibility.

This study observed that female mice with disrupted 5α-reductase 1 showed increased insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis, suggesting altered glucocorticoid metabolism contributes to metabolic disorders.

This study found that KSR1 is necessary for v-Ha-ras-mediated skin tumor formation but not for MT-driven mammary cancer, indicating its potential as a therapeutic target in Ras/MAPK signaling-related tumors.

In this study, researchers found that deleting TNFα in PKCε transgenic mice reduced the development of cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas induced by UV radiation or a chemical protocol.

This study found that the PP2A-B55α regulatory subunit is crucial for ectodermal development in mice, with knockout embryos displaying severe neural and epidermal defects and failing to survive to birth.

In this study, Trf1 genetic deletion in mice, including those with cancer-prone mutations, was shown to not affect overall viability and cause only mild effects, while being necessary for tumor formation, suggesting a potential therapeutic window for Trf1 as an anti-cancer target.

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 mice lacking myelin protein zero-like 3 (Mpzl3) had reduced body weight and adiposity despite increased food intake, which was linked to higher energy expenditure and improved glycemic control.

In this study, 25% of CCHCR1-deficient mice exposed to stress developed hair loss similar to human alopecia areata, suggesting CCHCR1 is a susceptibility gene for the disease.

This study reported that patients with specific Foxn1 mutations exhibited severe T-cell lymphopenia without the hair and nail abnormalities usually associated with these mutations.

In this study, D6D knockout mice showed severe deficiency in AA and DHA, leading to unexpected effects on skin health, fertility, and immune cell development.

This study found that overexpressing PKCδ in transgenic mice did not reduce squamous cell carcinoma development induced by UV radiation, despite its effectiveness against TPA-promoted cancer in these mice.

This study found that abnormal liver and kidney copper metabolism in Br females had no clinical effects, whereas defective brain copper metabolism in Br males was clinically significant.

In this study, the researchers observed that inducing and then withdrawing β-catenin expression in a bigenic mouse model caused reversible changes in skin morphology, indicating dependence on β-catenin signaling.

Lack of TrkC receptor delays hair follicle development.

In this study, mice engineered to express human EGFR showed tissue-specific growth defects and neurodegeneration rescue, but developed severe heart issues and accelerated bone cell differentiation.

In this study, transgenic mice expressing a truncated form of latent transforming growth factor-β-binding protein exhibited altered hair cycles due to increased active transforming growth factor-β, impacting keratinocyte proliferation and hair cycle phases.

This study found that ING5 knockout mice are prone to developing lymphomas and severe dermatitis, suggesting ING5 plays a role in tumor suppression and stem cell maintenance in vivo.

This study showed that knocking out the Ppp2ca gene in the epidermis of mice led to significant hair loss and disrupted hair follicle morphogenesis and regeneration.

This study found that FLCN deficiency in mice muscles led to increased mitochondrial biogenesis and a metabolic shift towards oxidative phosphorylation, with a similar advantage observed in FLCN-null kidney cancer cells.

This study identified a nonfunctional Itpr3 gene in BTBR mice, attributed to a 12-bp deletion, which likely causes their simultaneous hair loss and taste perception deficits.

In this animal study, researchers found that the simultaneous deletion of ERBB2 and ERBB3 in mice results in impaired skin differentiation, inflammation, and sebaceous gland alteration, leading to skin lesions, while highlighting potential side effects in cancer therapies targeting these receptors.

In this study, a transgenic mouse model was used to demonstrate that targeted cell loss in different tissues led to varying degrees of regenerative outcomes, including reversible impaired glucose tolerance, irreversible hair loss, and permanent moderate deafness.

CaBP1 and 2 are necessary for maintaining calcium currents and hearing in inner ear cells.

This study observed that transgenic mice expressing keratin K10 under bovine K6beta control developed severe oral abnormalities, suggesting keratin composition changes can affect the physiology of epithelial cells, especially in the oral mucosa.

This study found that while most mice lacking MK6a and MK6b genes died from tongue epithelium disintegration, about 25% survived and showed no hair or nail defects due to a newly discovered MK6hf gene.

In a mouse model study, researchers observed that the absence of MCPIP1 in myeloid cells decreased susceptibility to chemically induced skin papillomas but caused significant hair loss and skin pigmentation changes, suggesting a role for MCPIP1 in skin carcinogenesis and follicle integrity.
