This study found that Foxn1-like genes in fish and mice are functionally equivalent in activating hair keratin genes, whereas changes in the cephalochordate Foxn1-like gene result in inactivity.

This study found that inhibiting the interaction between CXXC5 and Dishevelled could stimulate hair regrowth in mouse models by enhancing WNT/β-catenin signaling, suggesting a potential therapeutic strategy for hair loss involving compounds that block this interaction, such as interfering short peptides.

This study utilized EDAR gene-targeted cashmere goats to identify 732 differentially expressed genes and 140 proteins associated with abnormal hair growth, providing insights into the regulatory mechanisms of cashmere follicle development.

This review discusses the role of activin signaling in hair follicle formation, hair growth cycling, and skin healing, but presents no new clinical findings.

In this study, CTCF was found to play essential roles in epidermal differentiation and skin barrier formation, simultaneously acting as a suppressor of epithelial inflammatory responses in mouse skin.

In this study, the researchers cloned and analyzed the CRABP I gene in Inner Mongolian cashmere goats, finding its highest mRNA expression at 90 days in embryo skin compared to later stages.

This study found that super-enhancers in squamous cell carcinoma stem cells are distinctly different from those in normal skin stem cells, with ETS2 playing a crucial role in promoting tumor growth.

This study found that in female androgenetic alopecia, androgen receptors are highly positive in affected areas, supporting their role as regulators of genetically predisposed hair follicles despite normal serum hormone levels.

This article provides updates on cosmetic/aesthetic medicine and surgery regulations in the UK and Europe, with no new clinical results reported.

This study found that squamous cell carcinomas from hair follicle stem cells are more prone to epithelial to mesenchymal transition and metastasis than those from interfollicular epidermis, due to distinct chromatin landscapes.

This research reports that the polyG fragment within the Hoxc13 protein alters its gene regulatory functions, which could have influenced mammalian hair evolution by affecting pathways related to hair follicle development.

This study found that STAT3 directly inhibits the sheep FST gene and cell proliferation, shedding light on the molecular mechanisms of hair follicle development and wool characteristics.

This article reviews the role of VEGF in hair follicle growth and cycle modulation but concludes that its specific molecular mechanisms in hair follicle growth remain unclear.

This study found that the protein CCN2 in dermal papilla cells is a physiologically relevant suppressor of hair follicle formation by destabilizing β-catenin, which may help maintain stem cell quiescence.

In this study, researchers found that K17−/− mice suffered more severe hair follicle damage but showed reduced epidermal inflammation after ionizing radiation, with K17's absence leading to aberrant cell cycle progression due to altered p53 genome binding and reduced B-Myb degradation.

This study found that topical bortezomib increased cell proliferation in hair follicles and sebaceous glands in mice and may activate hair keratin gene expression through GATA-3 transcription factors.

In this study, researchers found that the AIRE G961C variant is a significant risk factor for severe alopecia areata and early-onset cases, particularly in patients with alopecia universalis.

This study found that NF-κB's p65/RelA subunit can directly activate hair keratin genes, suggesting a new role in hair formation that may inform the understanding of ectodermal dysplasias.

This study identified that disrupting Mef2c in dermal papilla cells delays the early stages of hair cycle catagen in mice, revealing potential interactions with Sox18 in regulating hair growth.

This study found that a truncated region of the K5 promoter directs expression in stratified epithelia, particularly in epidermis, hair follicles, and tongue, potentially involving specific keratinocyte nuclear proteins in regulation.

This study found that as few as 90 base pairs of the K5 promoter directed keratinocyte-preferred expression in stratified epithelia, especially in epidermis, hair follicles, and tongue, showing cell type specificity.

In this study, deleting the transcriptional pause factor Nelfb in mouse preadipocyte lineages led to defective dermal fat formation and lethal outcomes, while interventions targeting Pparg could rescue adipocyte differentiation and promote dermal white adipose tissue formation, underscoring Nelfb's critical role in adipogenesis.

This article reviews different generations of synthetic retinoids for dermatological use, discussing their efficacy and significant side effects, but reports no new clinical results.

In cashmere goats, this study found that reducing miR-361-5p levels activates secondary hair follicle stem cells by upregulating the FOXM1 gene, which in turn stimulates the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, crucial for cashmere fiber morphogenesis.

This article reviews the roles and synthesis of essential long-chain fatty acids in the body and reports no new research findings; it emphasizes the importance of dietary sources for these lipids.

In this study, re-activating SOX9 in adult epidermal stem cells led to a fate switch towards hair follicle stem cell identity, with altered chromatin dynamics and oncogenic activation, contributing insights into developmental processes and cancer pathways.

This study found that GLI2 plays a key role in activating follistatin, an activin/BMP antagonist, in response to hedgehog signaling in human epidermal cells, with implications for hair follicle development and basal cell carcinoma.

This study found that EGFR and MEK inhibitors may induce acneiform skin toxicities by interacting with the skin bacterium Cutibacterium acnes to increase IL-36γ and IL-8 production in keratinocytes.

This study analyzed the molecular evolution and functional divergence of the Dkk gene family, finding accelerated evolution in Aves and Reptilia and identifying functional differences that may impact hair follicle development via Wnt signaling inhibition.

This dissertation reveals that FERONIA, a cell wall-binding receptor kinase, plays a crucial role in regulating plant functions such as sugar signaling, pollen tube reception, and RAC/ROP-mediated auxin signaling.
