This study found that maintaining a low level of Wnt/β-catenin activity is crucial for mammary gland development, as excessive activity inhibits branching and promotes characteristics of hair follicles instead, highlighting its role in skin appendage identity decisions.

This study identified a mutation in the CST6 gene linked to a rare syndrome with symptoms affecting hair and skin, revealing cystatin M/E's role in maintaining epidermal homeostasis and hair follicle development.

Lgr5 is a marker for active, long-lasting stem cells in mouse hair follicles.

This study found that deleting the Mof gene in mouse skin leads to severe defects in skin cell self-renewal, differentiation, and hair follicle growth, indicating that MOF is crucial for mitochondrial and ciliary gene expression and essential for skin development.

This study identified a small molecule that activates GLI1, suppressing neuroblastoma cell growth, which may aid in developing new treatments for high-risk neuroblastoma cases.

This study found that in mice, inactivating beta-catenin in the dermal papilla reduces hair follicle progenitor proliferation and disrupts the hair cycle.

This study found that the orphan protein Plet-1 is expressed in specific keratinocytes of mouse hair follicles and may regulate keratinocyte interactions with inert tissues by affecting migration and adhesion.

This study found that treating aged mice with the Cdc42 inhibitor CASIN restored hair follicle stem cell functionality and improved hair regeneration by inducing anagen onset and increasing anagen skin areas.

Hoxc13 is important for hair and tongue development by controlling hair keratin genes.

This study suggests that Mcl-1 has a non-apoptotic role in promoting keratinocyte proliferation and Wnt/β-catenin signaling, potentially indicating a novel oncogenic activity.

This study found that transient activation of c-Myc in transgenic mice stimulates keratinocyte proliferation and sebocyte differentiation, affecting normal epidermal and hair follicle development.

This study reported that high ornithine decarboxylase expression and decreased keratin K1 and K10 expression may serve as useful markers for early stages of tumor development in mouse skin.

This study suggests that the interaction between CXXC5 and Dishevelled is a potential target for promoting hair regrowth and hair follicle formation, offering a new approach to treat hair loss.

This study found that targeting connective tissue sheath contraction with an MLCK inhibitor may improve hair growth in androgenetic alopecia by reducing premature hair regression caused by ectopic apoptosis of hair follicle progenitor cells.

In this study, the authors concluded that the TS-associated polyomavirus may disrupt Wnt/β-catenin signaling, likely contributing to abnormal hair follicle formation in trichodysplasia spinulosa.

The K15 promoter effectively targets stem cells in the hair follicle bulge.

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.

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.

This study identified a critical NF-κB-LHX2-TGFβ2 signaling pathway essential for primary hair follicle development in mice, revealing new insights into the underlying mechanisms of morphogenesis.

This study found that AIRE, a usually nuclear protein, is expressed in the cytoplasm of human epidermal and follicular keratinocytes and associates with the intermediate filament protein cytokeratin 17, potentially impacting ectodermal abnormalities in APECED syndrome.

This study found that canine hair follicle stem cells in vitro expressed markers associated with multipotency, suggesting their potential role in the hair cycle.

This study observed that PCR-based genotyping for cre-loxP mice can lead to errors due to cre-mediated recombination in non-target tissues like tails, affecting the detection of lox alleles.

A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.

In this study, researchers describe a rare case of trichoepitheliomas in a 7-year-old boy, characterized by multiple skin lesions in a Blaschko-linear pattern, hypothesizing it as a type 1 segmental mosaicism without detected CYLD gene mutations.

This study describes a method for labeling and tracking hair follicle stem cells in mouse skin using a Cre/lox recombination system with tamoxifen, providing insights into stem cell behavior and contribution to tissue regeneration.

In this mouse model study, researchers found that deleting the ASH2L gene in epidermal progenitor cells led to thinner epidermal layers, delayed hair follicle development, and reduced epidermal stem cell pools, with alterations in genes related to hair follicle development and the Notch signaling pathway.

This report discusses a 22-year-old patient with MELAS syndrome carrying the m.10158T>C mutation, and highlights the need for extensive genetic testing when initial hot-spot mutation tests are negative.

This study found that the CXXC5 protein is overexpressed in diabetic foot ulcer tissues, suppressing wound healing, and that the small molecule KY19334 accelerated healing in diabetic mice by activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

This study found that the absence of Ctip2 in epidermal keratinocytes led to impaired wound healing in mice, affecting cell migration, proliferation, and hair follicle stem cell maintenance.

CCCA in women of African ancestry may be caused by PADI3 gene mutations and intense hair grooming.
