This study investigated pangolin skin genetics, finding that while sweat gland-related genes are not inactivated, several genes related to sebaceous gland function are, which highlights complex evolutionary adaptations in mammalian skin.

This article explains the structure and multifunctional roles of the human skin, including its protective, regulatory, and sensory functions, but does not report new research findings.

The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.

This study found that inhibiting AP1 transcription factor activity in the suprabasal epidermis of mice alters keratinocyte gene expression, reducing barrier integrity and mimicking human keratoderma.

In this study, researchers found that the EDMTFH protein is present in specific layers of the chicken embryo skin and feathers, suggesting its role in feather mechanics and development.

This review discusses the interplay between signaling/transcription factor-mediated and epigenetic mechanisms in skin development and regeneration, highlighting the need for further exploration of epigenome reorganization in these processes.

This study reports that eccrine sweat glands in mice predominantly develop on the footpads, offering a reference for skin research involving genetically engineered mice.

This study examined variations in epidermal thickness and protein expression across different dog breeds, finding significant differences by anatomical site and breed, with associated mRNA and protein expression changes observed.

This study analyzes the fine structure and protein distribution in monotreme hairs, finding similarities with other mammals and detailing unique immunocytochemical features in their inner root sheaths.

In this review, researchers examined the molecular diversity and expression patterns of major skin appendage proteins, like keratins and EDC proteins, in tetrapods, highlighting recent findings in reptiles and birds and identifying knowledge gaps for future research.

This article reviews current research on epidermal stem cells and differentiation, presenting models of basal layer composition, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that Nrf2 activation protected keratinocytes from UVB damage but also caused thickening, inflammation, and cysts, limiting its therapeutic potential for skin protection.

This study found that disrupting the inturned gene in developing mouse epidermis halted hair follicle formation due to impaired keratinocyte differentiation, highlighting primary cilia's role in tissue-specific planar cell polarity signaling.

This review discusses the use of dermabrasion as an effective skin resurfacing technique for treating aging effects and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that epidermal Wnt production is crucial for forming the skin's spinous layer through a BMP-FGF signaling cascade, although Wnt from basal cells is not needed for their differentiation.

This study found that Thy1+ keratinocytes in the basal layer of the interfollicular epidermis play a crucial role in epidermal homeostasis and wound repair, with their ablation impairing these processes.

This review discusses how epidermal Langerhan's cells and dermal cells may influence keratinocyte environments, potentially aiding in the formation of stem cell niches and cellular variety in the basal layer, without providing novel results.

This study explored gene expression in Changthangi goats and found that higher expression of keratin-related genes and specific signaling pathways may play a role in the development of Pashmina fiber.

This study used ultrahigh-resolution optical coherence tomography to observe hair shaft structures, finding melanin granules absent only in white hair, which may explain color differences between black and white hair.

This study found that a newly identified mutation in the hairless gene in mice led to decreased Hr mRNA levels and changes in gene expression related to hair follicle development.

This chapter discusses the skin stem cell niche as a complex ecosystem and highlights the diverse components and interactions that influence stem cell function, but it reports no new experimental results.

This study found that crossbred lambs fed liquid diets with reconstituted cow's milk initially grew wool without crimp, with crimp resuming two weeks post-weaning.

This study suggests that TGF-alpha may function in an autocrine or juxtacrine manner rather than promoting cell proliferation during hair growth cycles in ferrets and sheep.
