This study found that Rac1 is crucial for maintaining the integrity of hair follicle structure but is not needed for skin epidermis maintenance in mice.

In this study, researchers identified that upon tissue injury in a mouse model, epidermal cells at the wound edge convert to an embryonic-like state with SOX11 and SOX4 playing a central role in modulating epidermal development and cell migration genes.

In this study, researchers found that basal cell carcinomas with common Hedgehog signaling mutations may require additional mutations to hyperactivate downstream signaling and progress beyond dormancy.

Caspase-3 helps control cell growth and organ size by activating YAP.

This study discovered that in *Drosophila*, knockdown of specific storage proteins in adipocytes decreased germline stem cell maintenance, implicating a role for these proteins in adult tissue regulation.

This study found that the p63 transcription factor plays a role in epidermal morphogenesis by regulating Satb1 expression, impacting chromatin architecture and gene expression in epidermal progenitor cells.

This study found that deleting the Hes1 gene disrupts hair regeneration by delaying anagen initiation and shortening the anagen phase, suggesting it's crucial for maintaining hair cycle homeostasis.

This study found that the N-terminal fragment of AIMP1 enhances hair growth and proliferation of hair follicle stem cells in mice, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic peptide for hair loss treatment.

This study found that human basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas have distinct gene expression patterns, with specific up-regulation of zinc finger encoding genes in basal cell carcinoma.

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 found that increased PHGDH expression in mice led to earlier melanin and melanocyte presence in hair follicles but did not induce cancer.

This study found that the GPRC6A-Duox1 signaling pathway influences hair cycle progression and testosterone-mediated hair loss in mice, suggesting that disruption of this pathway leads to resistance against testosterone-induced hair loss and longer anagen phase duration.

This study found that knockdown of PCAT1 inhibited hair follicle regeneration in nude mice by disrupting the miR-329/Wnt10b axis and Wnt/β-catenin signaling, highlighting PCAT1's role in promoting follicle regrowth.

In this study, researchers found that size polymorphisms in certain hKAP1 genes are linked to the hKAP1.1B and hKAP1.3 genes, arising from intragenic deletions and duplications in Japanese and Caucasian populations.

This review summarizes how genetic studies using conditional β-catenin loss- and gain-of-function mice have advanced understanding of canonical Wnt signaling's role in embryonic development, adult stem cell maintenance, and cancer modeling.

A new mouse mutation causes skin and hair issues, influenced by another gene.

In in-vitro experiments, this study found that poncirin showed higher inhibitory activity against JAK3 than tofacitinib, suggesting potential for alopecia areata treatment.

A new genetic mutation causing Xeroderma Pigmentosum was found in an 8-year-old girl, affecting her DNA repair.

This review discusses the role of Edar signaling in hair follicle development and cycling, emphasizing its impact on cell fate, differentiation, and interactions with other pathways, but reports no new results.

This study found that mice lacking alkaline ceramidase 1 with elevated skin ceramide levels showed disrupted skin homeostasis, including altered hair follicle structures, increased water loss, and a hypermetabolism phenotype.

In this study, researchers identified the c.296C>T (p.T99I) variant in the KRT32 gene, which co-segregates with loose anagen hair syndrome, and found it decreases binding affinity to KRT82, potentially weakening hair anchorage.

This study observed that DNA damage response (DDR) plays a key role in pressure overload-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, with disruption of the ATM kinase pathway potentially modulating this hypertrophy in mice.

This study observed that in adult mice, a cell-autonomous size control mechanism involving the RB pathway determines the timing of S phase entry in epidermal stem cells based on their size, while external microenvironment factors influence growth rates but not this intrinsic coupling.

This study found that selective deletion of Ctip2 in epidermal keratinocytes in adult mice leads to atopic dermatitis-like inflammation and suggests Ctip2 plays a crucial role in skin barrier maintenance and inflammatory regulation.

In this study using mice with specific gene knockouts, both farnesyltransferase and geranylgeranyltransferase-I were found to be essential for the proliferation and survival of skin keratinocytes.

This study found that overexpressing the PML protein in transgenic mice decreased skin tumor occurrence and delayed their progression, highlighting PML's potential role in influencing keratinocyte growth and differentiation.

In this study, EREG promoted hair growth by activating specific receptors in cell and animal models, indicating it may be a potential treatment for hair loss.
