research Postzygotic KRAS G12C Mutation Associated with Various Malignancies Also Underlying Epidermal Nevus Syndrome
A specific mutation known for causing cancer is also found to cause a skin condition in a young girl.
research Smad4-Dependent Desmoglein-4 Expression Contributes to Hair Follicle Integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
research The Notch Intracellular Domain Has an RBPj-Independent Role During Mouse Hair Follicular Development
The Notch signaling pathway helps in mouse hair development through a noncanonical mechanism that does not rely on RBPj or transcription.
research The Disintegrin/Metalloproteinase Adam10 Is Essential for Epidermal Integrity and Notch-Mediated Signaling
Adam10 enzyme is crucial for healthy skin and proper Notch signaling.
research Dermal Niche Signaling and Epidermal Stem Cells
Skin health and repair depend on the signals between skin stem cells and their surrounding cells.
research Mechanical Forces Across Compartments Coordinate Cell Shape and Fate Transitions to Generate Tissue Architecture
Mechanical forces are crucial for shaping cells and forming tissues during development.

Fatp4 is crucial for healthy skin development and function.
research Epidermal PPARγ Is a Key Homeostatic Regulator of Cutaneous Inflammation and Barrier Function in Mouse Skin
PPARγ is essential for maintaining healthy skin, controlling inflammation, and ensuring proper skin barrier function.
research Loss of TET2 Tips the Scales Toward Tumorigenesis
Loss of TET2 increases the risk of skin and oral cancer.
research The Transcriptional Regulator Prdm1 Is Essential for the Early Development of the Sensory Whisker Follicle and Is Linked to the Beta-Catenin First Dermal Signal
Prdm1 is necessary for early whisker development in mice but not for other hair, and its absence changes nerve and brain patterns related to whiskers.
research Region-Specific Reversal of Epidermal Planar Polarity in the Rosette Fancy Mouse
Hair follicles in the back of the rosette fancy mouse have reversed orientations due to a gene mutation.
research Inducible Deletion of Epidermal Dicer and Drosha Reveals Multiple Functions for miRNAs in Postnatal Skin
Drosha and Dicer are essential for hair follicle health and preventing DNA damage in skin cells.
research Transgenic Mice Overexpressing CD109 in the Epidermis Display Decreased Inflammation and Granulation Tissue and Improved Collagen Architecture During Wound Healing
Mice genetically modified to produce more CD109 in their skin had less inflammation and better healing with less scarring.
research α3β1-Integrin Regulates Hair Follicle But Not Interfollicular Morphogenesis in Adult Epidermis
α3β1-integrin is crucial for maintaining normal hair follicle shape and function but not needed for the development of the surrounding skin.
research A Homozygous Single T Deletion Found in the GGCX Gene with PXE-Like Phenotypes
A gene mutation worsens skin irritation in mice due to a lack of certain fats.
research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability During Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Mice lacking a key DNA methylation enzyme in skin cells have a lower chance of activating stem cells necessary for hair growth, leading to progressive hair loss.
research Adipose and Hair Function: An Apparent Connection
Fat tissue and a specific protein are crucial for healthy hair growth and maintenance.

Applying pseudoceramide improved skin and hair health.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
