STAT5 is crucial for hair growth in 3D cultured human dermal papilla cells.

This study found that LEF-1 expression influences dermal papilla cells' proliferation through Wnt signaling, impacting the potential for cashmere yield improvement.

This study found that the gene BSSP, a serine protease, is predominantly expressed in sebaceous glands and is overexpressed in nude mouse skin.

In this case study, a 19-month-old infant with palmoplantar keratoderma and nail dystrophy was found to have a desmoplakin gene mutation, leading to cardiomyopathy by age 7, illustrating diagnostic challenges and the potential link between skin, dental, and cardiac anomalies.

This study suggests a connection between the unfolded protein response and upregulation of NKG2D ligands in stressed hair follicles, highlighting a potential role of PRDX5 in alopecia areata pathogenesis.

In this study, researchers identified a new dominant mutation in Hairless mice, called Pied, resulting from a deletion in the Adam10 gene, which causes freckle-like skin pigmentation by inhibiting melanocyte expansion.

The study suggests that culturing adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells into spheroids with Wnt exposure can result in cell clusters resembling hair follicle dermal papilla cells, potentially aiding hair follicle generation.

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 mouse study, researchers found that dermal Wnt signaling/β-catenin activity is essential for fibroblast proliferation and initiating hair follicle formation by interacting with epidermal Wnt ligands.

This study reported the creation of isogenic immortalized COL7A1-deficient keratinocyte lines, providing a model for researching Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa biology and potential therapies.

This study found that the hair interior defect in AKR/J mice is linked to a mutation in the Soat1 gene, which disrupts SOAT1 protein expression and affects lipid metabolism critical for normal hair formation.

The researchers found that corneodesmosin is crucial for maintaining skin barrier integrity and hair follicle architecture in mice, with its deletion leading to severe skin and hair abnormalities.

In this study using a mouse model, Prom1+ dermal papilla cells were found to regulate the size of the papilla via β-catenin communication but did not aid in dermal repair.

In this study, researchers identified two new keratin-associated proteins, hKAP1.6 and hKAP1.7, in human hair follicles, contributing to understanding hair fiber differentiation.

This study found that in Vdr-knockout mice, hair follicles fail to complete the catagen stage, leading to persistent epithelial strands and subsequent hair loss.

This study found that centrosomes, unlike cilia, are essential for proper epidermal and hair follicle development in mice, with these effects being dependent on the presence of p53.

This study observed that Tudor-SN protein may play a significant role in the immune system and that polyamines can influence hair growth in a mouse model.

This study found that desmosomal adhesion plays a crucial role in epithelial morphogenesis and cell positioning, equivalent in importance to that of adherens junctions.

This study demonstrates that Rac1 activity is essential for normal hair follicle formation but influences hair structure and pigmentation, in terminal differentiation, through alterations in hair shaft, cuticle, and pigmentation organization.

This study found that reduced plasma DIAPH1 levels were associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting DIAPH1 as a potential predictive factor for the condition.

The Celsr1 gene is crucial for normal hair patterning in mice.

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.

In this study, researchers identified a cluster of hair-specific keratin-associated protein genes within the 21q22.3 region, revealing a novel transcription mechanism involving TSPEAR/C21orf29 that may bypass typical transcriptional termination sites.

This research found that deleting the SLC3A2 gene in hair follicle stem cells disrupts their maintenance and proper differentiation, leading to hair follicle growth defects and altered skin regeneration through a YAP/Taz-dependent pathway.

In this study, inactivating the TAF4 subunit of transcription factor TFIID in mouse epidermis disrupted gene expression linked to skin and hair function, and increased tumor risk.

Basonuclin is crucial for hair follicle development and cycling in mice.

This review assesses existing knowledge about the 17q21.31 inversion polymorphism, highlighting its genetic structure differences across ancestries, associations with various diseases, and implications for precision medicine and drug discovery.

This study found that RSPO1 mutations in patients with a 46XX disorder of sexual development contribute to impaired skin integrity and increased risk of squamous cell carcinoma in areas subject to friction.

In this study, Meis1 was found to regulate epidermal homeostasis and act as a proto-oncogenic factor in skin tissues, with differences in expression patterns between normal and tumor cells.

This study found that notch1 signaling is severely impaired in hidradenitis suppurativa patients with or without NCSTN or other gamma-secretase gene mutations, highlighting a canonical defect at the lesional tissue level.
