In this study using a mouse model, researchers found that DNA methylation of the miR-365-1 promoter plays a role in reducing apoptosis in hair follicle stem cells during chemotherapeutic alopecia.

This review examines PAK4 signaling pathways in prostate cancer, Parkinson's disease, and melanogenesis, focusing on the potential role of the PAK4-CREB axis, without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that dysregulation of the folliculin-p0071 interaction may lead to changes in cell adhesion and signaling, contributing to conditions like emphysema and renal cell carcinoma.

This study found that the protein CCN2 in dermal papilla cells is a physiologically relevant suppressor of hair follicle formation by destabilizing β-catenin, which may help maintain stem cell quiescence.

This study observed that epidermal-specific deletion of aPKCλ in mice disrupts hair follicle stem cell quiescence, leading to altered hair follicle cycling and skin anomalies.

In this study, the researchers using Shh-GFP^+/- mice found that cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia involves the JAK/STAT1 pathway, where STAT1 binds the Shh gene promoter, decreasing Shh-expressing cells in hair follicles. Treatment with JAK inhibitors helped rescue hair loss, implicating the JAK/STAT1 pathway in this process.

In this study, the researchers observed significant metabolic dysregulation in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, particularly involving lipid metabolism and the downregulation of AMPK-related genes.

This study found that aPKCλ, but not aPKCζ, plays a critical role in maintaining hair follicle stem cell populations and promoting wound healing in the epidermis.

This study discovered that calcium dependent protein kinase 1 (CPK1) directly activates cyclic nucleotide-gated channels 5, 6, and 9, promoting root hair growth in Arabidopsis by regulating Ca²⁺ signaling.

This study found that the protein MIM is crucial for maintaining cilia and Sonic hedgehog signaling in mesenchymal cells by counteracting Src-mediated phosphorylation of Cortactin, impacting hair follicle formation.

This study found that Polycomb repressive complex 1 is crucial for skin development and stem cell specification, influencing gene activity beyond its known repressor functions.

This study reported that the novel AKT inhibitor CCT128930 demonstrated significant antitumor activity in human cancer cell lines and xenografts, highlighting its potential as an anticancer therapy.

This study identified specific germline and somatic mutations in the Phospholipase C Delta 1 gene as high-risk factors for developing hereditary trichilemmal cysts, involving a monoallelic two-hit mechanism.

This study found that LDE225, a novel Smo antagonist, shows potential as a topical treatment for basal cell carcinoma due to its high affinity binding and effective inhibition of tumor growth in preclinical models.

This study found that in mouse embryonic fibroblast cells lacking autophagy function, overexpression of Atg5 increased cell proliferation, while restoring autophagy reversed this effect, highlighting Atg5's dual role in tumorigenesis depending on autophagy conditions.

This study found that the RNA helicase DDX6 is essential for maintaining self-renewal in epidermal progenitor cells by promoting the translation of proliferation regulators and degrading differentiation-inducing mRNAs.

Phospholipase Cδ1 is crucial for normal skin and hair development.

This study identified a high-risk allele in the PLCD1 gene associated with hereditary trichilemmal cyst formation, proposing a monoallelic two-hit mechanism as the underlying genetic pathogenesis.

This study found that CTCF is crucial for proper skin and hair follicle development in mice, affecting keratinocyte differentiation and gene expression in keratin loci.

This study suggests that NFIB and STAT5 work together to control cell-specific genetic programs in mammalian tissues, particularly in mammary and hair follicle stem cells.

This study established that the Dct::CreERT2 mouse line is effective for targeting and studying adult melanocyte stem cells, contributing to the understanding of melanocyte biology and hair pigmentation.

In this study, researchers analyzed skin tumors from patients with CYLD cutaneous syndrome and found that loss of CYLD function is linked to changes in cellular signaling pathways, particularly NF-κB signaling, and leads to increased secretion of specific extracellular matrix proteins.

This review discusses the calcineurin/NFAT pathway's role in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, noting its involvement in tumor development, skin cell behavior, and the tumor microenvironment; it reports no new results.
