This study identified mutations in the FGF5 gene as a cause of extreme eyelash growth in Pakistani families, highlighting a potential target for regulating eyelash growth.

This study found that local refinement of hair follicles into higher order patterns can occur without the core planar cell polarity system, but global alignment with body axes requires its function throughout development and regeneration.

This study in mice found that MEIS2 expression in mesenchymal dermal cells is crucial for the formation of whiskers and the initial steps of epithelial placode development, independently of sensory nerve innervation or Foxd1 expression.

This study found that FGF18 is crucial for regulating hair follicle rest and growth phases, as its absence in mice leads to a shorter resting phase and rapid hair cycling.

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.

This study identified that Eda-A1 unexpectedly induces placode inhibitors dkk4 and lrp4, indicating the importance of tightly regulated signaling for proper ectodermal organ development.

In this study, the researchers identified a temperature-sensitive mutant in Arabidopsis thaliana, showing disrupted root hair formation and altered responses to plant hormone treatments at elevated temperatures.

This study observed that deleting ARNT in keratinocytes of mice reduced zigzag hair production and altered hair follicle differentiation, likely by affecting the expression of specific cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors.

This study found that follistatin and activin interactions are important for hair follicle development and cycling in mice, suggesting that they may regulate processes involving BMP-2 and its antagonist.

This study found that the desmosomal protein desmoplakin is crucial for proper epidermal morphogenesis and radial intercalation in developing Xenopus embryos, affecting keratin organization and ectodermal structures.

In this study, researchers investigated the impact of a bioactive peptide derived from amphibians on hair follicle regeneration in diabetic skin, focusing on its potential to enhance wound healing and reduce infection risk.

This study found that BAF200, a subunit of the PBAF chromatin remodeling complex, is crucial for heart development and coronary artery formation in mice, as its absence led to embryonic lethality with severe cardiac defects.

This study found that phosphorylated VEGFR-2 is present in human scalp epidermal appendages and suggests it plays a role in their daily regulation.

In this study, researchers identified that upon tissue injury in a mouse model, epidermal cells at the wound edge convert to an embryonic-like state with SOX11 and SOX4 playing a central role in modulating epidermal development and cell migration genes.

This study found that TCDD significantly reduced EGF receptor binding in various animal models, linked to toxic symptoms like weight loss and developmental delays, with receptor phosphorylation persisting several days.

In this study, researchers observed that low levels of fucose-binding lectin staining characterize limbal epithelial progenitor cells, which maintain a high proliferative capacity and may be enhanced by inhibiting fucosylation, offering insights for regenerative therapy of the limbal stem cell niche.

This study in mice suggests that defects in hair follicles with mesenchymal TSC2 disruption may result from an impaired TGFβ1 response, indicating a potential novel treatment approach for tuberous sclerosis complex.

This study observed that topiramate treatment in female zebrafish may impair genetic transmission to offspring, reducing expression of certain skeletal development-related genes in embryos.

Fgf9 helps create new hair follicles after injury through skin T cells.

The ZIP13 variant is linked to abnormal hair quality.

This study found that secretory proteins in DFCM play crucial roles in regulating nerve restoration by forming significant protein interaction networks during the wound repair process.

The Celsr1 gene is crucial for normal hair patterning in mice.

This study found that low temperature triggers root hair elongation in Arabidopsis thaliana through a FERONIA-ROP2-TORC signaling pathway, also activated by nitrogen deficiency.

This study found that an SNP in the FGFR2 gene, rs4752566, was significantly associated with hair thickness in Asian populations, suggesting an effect on hair morphology through altered FGFR2 expression levels.

This study found that overexpression of a mutated ornithine decarboxylase transgene in mice led to complete hair loss, which could be prevented or reversed with an ODC inhibitor.

In this study, early prenatal treatment with Minoxidil, a lysyl hydroxylase inhibitor, partly improved cardiac outflow tract septation in Tbx1 mutant mice, suggesting that inhibiting collagen cross-linking may mitigate some effects of Tbx1 mutation associated with DiGeorge syndrome.

This study found that novel RNA aptamers specifically inhibited FGF5-induced cell proliferation, suggesting their potential as candidates for treating FGF5-related diseases or hair disorders.
