This study found that Sox2 within dermal papilla cells in the hair follicle regulates hair pigmentation, influencing the type and production of melanin.

This review highlights the potential of in vivo reprogramming using OSKM transcription factors for developing rejuvenating and regenerative strategies, while noting the associated risk of tumorigenicity and discussing how improved understanding could lead to safer applications.

This study found that inhibiting PI3 kinase in epidermal stem cells reduces YBX1 phosphorylation, thereby decreasing cellular senescence and enhancing wound healing and regeneration in adult-derived skin models.

This study found that deleting the Mof gene in mouse skin leads to severe defects in skin cell self-renewal, differentiation, and hair follicle growth, indicating that MOF is crucial for mitochondrial and ciliary gene expression and essential for skin development.

In this study, LHX2 and SOX9 were found to mark distinct epithelial progenitor cell populations within human hair follicles, suggesting roles in maintaining the hair follicle epithelium.

This study found that Sonic hedgehog signaling is crucial for Merkel cell development around hair follicles in mice, with Polycomb repressive complex 2 loss causing ectopic Merkel cells across all hair types.

This study suggests that the activation of box A in mesenchymal cell models may enhance stem cell properties, increasing the expression of stemness markers like OCT4, NANOG, and SOX2.

Fibroblasts can be turned into melanocytes for potential skin treatments.

This study found that the unique crest feather formation in Polish chickens is driven by a 195-bp duplication in the HoxC10 gene region, which alters gene expression by modifying the genomic structure, suggesting a mechanism for diverse integumentary appendages in birds.

This review discusses the roles of PAX3 in melanocyte development and melanoma progression but reports no new experimental results; the authors propose it as a key regulatory factor and call for further investigation.

This study reports that in ovarian cell development, FSH-induced OCT4 expression is regulated through the GSK3β/β-catenin pathway mediated by the PI3K/Akt pathway.

This study identified a heterozygous de novo mutation in the ODC1 gene causing a new disorder characterized by overgrowth and developmental delay, and suggests that DFMO treatment may help manage elevated ODC activity and putrescine levels.

This study used transgenic mice to show that disrupting TGF-β signaling in K14+ progenitor cells led to increased stem cell proliferation in the tongue.
