September 2019 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that deleting all three Tet genes in mice led to shorter hair shafts and altered hair types, with associated changes in gene expression and DNA hydroxymethylation.
September 2019 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” In this study, mouse sebaceous glands were found to require nerves for growth during active hair cycles, suggesting a nerve-dependent sebaceous gland cycle coordinated with hair growth.
April 2019 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” In this study, researchers found that canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling and Wnt-ligand expression are distinctly regulated during wound healing across different cell populations and immunity conditions, particularly under type 2 immunity.
April 2019 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that activating the Sonic hedgehog pathway in scarring wounds can redirect wound repair to favor hair follicle regeneration instead of fibrosis.
April 2019 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” In this pilot study, combined platelet-rich plasma therapies showed potential benefits for improving skin elasticity and vascular network density in morphea patients, but the small sample size limits definitive conclusions.
This study found that dermal papilla-like tissues derived from canine adipose stem cells promoted new hair follicle formation and increased vascularization in athymic nude mice.
