This study found that mouse FLRG protein, a secreted glycoprotein, is expressed in certain tissues and plays a role distinct from follistatin during wound healing, suggesting different functions in vivo.

This study found that Flammulina velutipes polysaccharides-derived scaffolds greatly enhanced wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in a rat model, particularly with the FPS/NaOH variant showing the best results.

In this study, researchers found that ligand homodimerization controls the receptor binding specificity of the FGF9 subfamily, preventing off-target activation of FGFR "b" isoforms.

This study found that the PP2A-B55α regulatory subunit is crucial for ectodermal development in mice, with knockout embryos displaying severe neural and epidermal defects and failing to survive to birth.

This study shows that the Wnt-β-catenin pathway promotes TERT expression in both stem and cancer cells, linking tumorigenesis with pluripotency.

Fibronectin and other basement membrane components increase during hair growth and decrease during rest.

This study found that enlarged facial pores in women show distinct microstructural alterations, including regular keratinocyte arrangement and irregular dermo-epidermal junctions, highlighting changes in skin tension linked to pore enlargement.

This article discusses a historical case of a rare skin disorder involving alopecia and follicular plugs reported in 1907; it presents no new findings.

This study suggests that the interaction between folliculin and plakophilin-4 (p0071) may play a role in folliculin's tumor suppressor function by regulating RhoA signaling, impacting cell migration and junction formation.

In this study, researchers found that bulge cells in mouse hair follicles undergo transient proliferation during early anagen, indicating their role as follicular stem cells. However, another factor beyond dermal papilla proximity may be required to initiate a new anagen phase.

This study found that the protein Formin 2 helps regulate cell-to-cell transport in thale cress by stabilizing actin filaments at plasmodesmata, with its absence leading to increased permeability and vulnerability to viral infections.

The researchers reported that hair follicle germinative epidermal cells can form complex structures when associating with papilla cells in culture, unlike other types of epidermal cells.

This review discusses the regenerative processes of lizard tails, particularly focusing on the diversity in blastema development across different species, and reports no new findings.

This review classifies mutant mice with hair abnormalities into six categories, providing an annotated table that serves as a reference for understanding the molecular controls of hair growth.

This study found that postmortem root banding in hair is likely due to the degradation of the intermacrofibrillar matrix in the cortex, with no damage to the cuticle observed.

This study found that K79+ keratinocytes migrate outward to help form the hair follicle lumen both during development and adult regeneration, revealing a novel mechanism of hair follicle formation in mice.

This study proposed a network model for the cross-linked structure of keratin-associated proteins in hair and wool fibers, suggesting notable differences between the two, potentially affecting hair fiber elasticity.

This study found that excess vitamin A in organotypic cultures of embryonic mouse skin led to abnormal hair follicle development and glandular metaplasia, unlike in untreated controls that showed normal differentiation.

This study found that zebrafish with a mutation in the GDP-fucose biosynthesis gene exhibited enhanced and faster regeneration of mechanosensory hair cells, implicating the importance of this gene and Notch signalling regulation in hair cell regeneration mechanisms.

In this study, researchers observed that after mesenchymal cell division in mouse and chicken embryonic skin, elevated migration speed and persistence for 180 minutes contribute to mesenchymal dispersal and preferential recruitment to dermal condensates.

This study reports two cases of trichoblastic neoplasms with histologic features suggesting they may be distinct, locally aggressive trichoblastic carcinomas separate from basal cell carcinoma.

This study demonstrates that Sox2+ dermal papilla fibroblasts exhibit properties of adult stem cells, including the ability to induce hair follicle formation and contribute to dermal regeneration.

This study found that synchronized signals in the microenvironment regulate stem cell lineage choices in hair follicles by influencing chromatin dynamics during regeneration.

This study observed that subcutaneously implanted mixtures of human hair follicle cells in nude mice resulted in the formation of hair follicle-like structures, suggesting potential for hair regeneration.

This study identified a new gene, mrp4, in mice, which suggests it may have a unique role in the growth and development of hair follicles in the ears and tails.

This study found that Msx2-deficient mice exhibit skull and bone formation defects similar to those seen in human MSX2-related conditions, highlighting the gene's importance in skeletal and organ development.

This review highlights that skin organoids, advanced three-dimensional models mimicking human skin, are emerging as effective alternatives to traditional culture models and human skin, overcoming limitations of two-dimensional systems and ethical concerns, and are being increasingly used in areas like developmental biology and disease modeling.

This study identified ISPP-Rb, a novel immuno-stimulatory complex from Royoporus badius, that significantly activates murine macrophage cells and induces multiple proinflammatory cytokines.

This study found that Demodex mites may transport Microsporum canis spores on human skin, suggesting a potential role in microbial movement despite typically being considered harmless.
