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 found that specific ATP-competitive TOR inhibitors (asTORis) decrease root growth in Arabidopsis thaliana in a dose-dependent manner, similar to their effects on mammalian cells.

Certain fungi and bacteria help orchid seeds germinate and plants grow better.

This study found that two microRNAs, oar-miR-23b and oar-miR-133, inhibit the development of hair follicles in superfine wool sheep by targeting genes involved in key signaling pathways, suggesting their potential use as molecular markers for breeding fine wool sheep.

This study found that overexpressing the CLE peptide SlCLE10 in tomatoes increased root hair length and improved drought tolerance, suggesting its potential for enhancing crop resilience to osmotic stress.

This review discusses the origins, differentiation, and function of dermal fibroblasts in skin development and healing, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, a specific retinoic acid receptor antagonist caused severe craniofacial anomalies in mouse fetuses when administered early in pregnancy, but not limb anomalies, highlighting developmental stage-specific roles of retinoic acid.

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.

In this study, transiently activating the sonic hedgehog signaling pathway in chickens transformed reticulate scales on the feet into feathers comparable to body feathers, without ongoing treatment, suggesting this pathway affects the diversity of bird skin appendages.

The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.

This paper provides a comprehensive review of melanocytes' roles in skin biology, focusing on their pigmentation and immune functions, and suggests potential research opportunities for preventing and treating skin disorders.

This study observed that the loss of H3K9me3, via the ablation of Suv39h1, Suv39h2, and Setdb1 in embryonic mouse epidermis, disrupts skin development processes such as keratinocyte differentiation and hair follicle formation, highlighting H3K9me3's crucial role in epidermal morphogenesis.
