This study found that somatic mosaic mutations in the doublecortin gene may cause subcortical band heterotopia in male patients, and molecular analysis using hair roots is a useful detection method.

This study explored the secretion and cellular localization of different forms of follistatin and FST-like-3, revealing variable secretion kinetics and possible intracellular roles, particularly for nuclear FSTL3.

This study suggests that the structure and function of mouse melanocytes in the epidermis and hair bulb are influenced by genetic factors and local tissue environment, including hormones and growth factors.

The researchers in this study found that neonatal mouse skin fibroblasts show distinct chromatin landscapes directing differentiation into dermal papilla or adipocyte lineages, and such plasticity may inform strategies for enhancing regenerative capacities in adult skin.

In this study, microporous electrospun scaffolds pre-seeded with dermal fibroblasts accelerated wound healing and improved dermal matrix structure and hair follicle regeneration compared to acellular scaffolds in a rat model.

In this study, researchers suggest that strategic early intervention during fetal wound healing could lead to significantly improved long-term skin regeneration outcomes.

This article describes the structure of ovine interdigital sinuses using scanning electron microscopy, highlighting features such as dense secretory material, hair presence, and classical apocrine secretion characteristics.

This perspective highlights the potential of reptile integument as an experimental model to understand the evolution of amniote skin structures, but reports no new research findings.

This study suggests that human keratin fiber matrix has a well-defined nano-scale grainy structure rather than being amorphous, with grain size influenced by chemical treatments, temperature, humidity, and follicle-level factors.

Disulfide bonds are crucial for hair structure during keratinization.

This study found that incorporating hair follicle-primed spheroids into skin constructs showed potential for developing hair-bearing skin mimetics with follicle-forming abilities in vitro.

This study found that zinc is primarily located in the tails of mature rat sperm, associated with -S-S-bonded structures, and suggests a possible similarity in zinc interactions between sperm keratin and hair proteins.

This study introduces a method for long-term expansion of adult mouse epidermal stem cells in vitro using an organoid culture system that maintains the basal-apical organization.

This review provides an overview of Hox genes, focusing on their evolutionary history, genomic organization, and roles in development, but reports no new study results.

This study examines the structure of the "sinuskissen" in cat hair follicles, revealing it as a loose connective tissue susceptible to changes in aqueous flow, and describes its variable three-dimensional shapes.

This review discusses the roles of the transcription factor SOX9 in organ development and maintenance, providing insights into its regulation and diverse functions, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that sustained ERK activity during tissue regeneration in spiny mice is linked to fibroblast growth factor and ErbB signaling, while inhibiting ERK shifted regeneration toward scarring.

In this study, researchers explored the molecular and cellular traits of avian reticulate scales, finding that they lack localized stem cell niches for regeneration, unlike other scale types, leading to repair but not regeneration after wounding.

This study found that keratin 15 expressing cells from the hair follicle contribute to the development and long-term persistence of cutaneous papillomas in transgenic mice, with a subset showing the Ha-ras mutation.

This study found that fibroblast growth factor 20 (Fgf20) orchestrates the movement and behavior of dermal fibroblasts, directing their formation into dermal condensates during hair follicle development in mice.

This study demonstrated the potential of epithelial cell scaffolds fabricated with various materials for effective hair regeneration, highlighting their promising application in tissue engineering for alopecia treatment.

This study reports a case of cystic panfolliculoma, highlighting the role of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions in its pathogenesis and explaining its histological resemblance to trichofolliculoma.

This study found that the proteins Par3, mInsc, and Gαi3 cooperate to regulate LGN polarization and promote perpendicular cell divisions during murine epidermal morphogenesis.

Hair proteins change location and structure as hair cells mature.

This study found that prostasin's proteolytic activity is necessary for normal hair follicle development in mice, but not for interfollicular epidermal development.

This study suggests that dermal stem/progenitor cells can be enriched by intracellular granularity and display high proliferation and differentiation potential in vitro, distinguishing them from other fibroblasts and progenitors.

This study suggests that Ptprq in the hair bundles may exist as multiple isoforms that are differentially expressed throughout development and affect the organization of stereocilia in the chick inner ear.

This study found that activating β-catenin signaling in embryonic epidermis promoted hair follicle characteristics at the expense of normal epidermal differentiation, leading to early pigmentation and innervation.

This study found that Wnt and Hedgehog signaling coordinate to create sharp cell type boundaries during hair follicle development by synchronizing cell cycle exit and differentiation.
