research Mice humanised for the EGF receptor display hypomorphic phenotypes in skin, bone and heart
In this study, mice engineered to express human EGFR showed tissue-specific growth defects and neurodegeneration rescue, but developed severe heart issues and accelerated bone cell differentiation.
research Decorin promotes proliferation and migration of ORS keratinocytes and maintains hair anagen in mice
This study found that DECORIN promotes the proliferation and migration of outer root sheath keratinocytes in vitro and maintains the hair anagen phase in mice.
research Analysis of the heterogeneity and complexity of murine extraorbital lacrimal gland via single-cell RNA sequencing
This study reported the first comprehensive transcriptome atlas of the extraorbital lacrimal gland in mice, identifying over 41 cell subclasses and revealing significant cell-cell communication networks, particularly among innate lymphoid cells.
research HOXC8 initiates an ectopic mammary program by regulating Fgf10 and Tbx3 expression, and Wnt/β-catenin signaling
This study found that misexpression of Hoxc8 in mice led to ectopic mammary development and suggests Hox genes may play crucial roles in the regional specification and initiation of cutaneous accessory organs.
research OVO Homolog-Like 1, a Target Gene of the Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway, Controls Hair Follicle Neogenesis
This study found that the OVOL1 gene in mouse neonatal dermal cells is crucial for hair follicle neogenesis, suggesting it plays a significant role in maintaining trichogenicity.
research Cashmere growth control in Liaoning cashmere goat by ovarian carcinoma immunoreactive antigen-like protein 2 and decorin genes
This study observed that the OCIAD2 and DCN genes in Liaoning cashmere goats have opposite effects on hair growth by interacting with the TGF-β signaling pathway, influencing follicle morphogenesis and periodic changes.
research Molecular cloning,sequence analysis and expression of goat Edagene
In this study, the researchers observed that Eda mRNA expression in goat skin peaks during the catagen phase of the hair cycle, suggesting its involvement in hair cycle regulation.
research Yin and yang of hair cells
This study observed that activin A and its antagonist follistatin influence the differentiation of inner ear hair cells by regulating the expression of the transcription factor ATOH1.
