research Transient agonism of the sonic hedgehog pathway triggers a permanent transition of skin appendage fate in the chicken embryo
In this study, transiently activating the sonic hedgehog signaling pathway in chickens transformed reticulate scales on the feet into feathers comparable to body feathers, without ongoing treatment, suggesting this pathway affects the diversity of bird skin appendages.
research Genetic basis of skin appendage development
This article reviews the similarities in early development processes of hair follicles, teeth, and mammary glands and reports no new experimental findings.
research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
This study reports the cloning and sequencing of two type II hair-specific keratin genes, ghHb1 and ghHb6, located on chromosome 12q13, which are expressed during hair growth.
research Beyond scarring: immune-epithelial crosstalk in wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis
This review explores the mechanisms of wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis in mice, discussing its potential to inform precision therapies for alopecia and scarless wound healing, but reports no new clinical results.
research Defining the transcriptional signature of esophageal-to-skin lineage conversion
This study found that exposing adult esophageal epithelial cells to skin stroma can induce them to transition toward a hair follicle identity, with HIF1a playing a crucial role in this conversion process.
research Comparative Transcriptome Analysis of Fetal Skin Reveals Key Genes Related to Hair Follicle Morphogenesis in Cashmere Goats
This study found that transcriptome profiling of cashmere goat skin revealed key genes and pathways involved in hair follicle initiation, differentiation, and maturation, which are critical for improving fleece production.
research Transforming Growth Factor-??, Smad, and Collagen Expression Patterns in Fetal and Adult Keratinocytes
This study found that keratinocytes show increased expression of the TGF-β system and collagen type I with age, suggesting a heightened profibrotic response during skin differentiation associated with scarring.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)

research Hair organ regeneration via the bioengineered hair follicular unit transplantation
This study demonstrated that bioengineered hair follicles reconstituted from embryonic skin cells and transplanted into hosts can restore physiological hair functions, suggesting potential applications for treating alopecia.
research Fully functional hair follicle organ regeneration using organ-inductive potential stem cells with an accessory mesenchymal cell population in an in vitro culture system
This study identifies a specific cell population, PDGFRα+/Sca1+/CD34+ mesenchymal cells, which play a crucial role in regenerating hair follicles by promoting the downgrowth phase of the hair cycle, offering insights into organ morphogenesis and stem cell niches essential for adult hair regeneration.
research 1424 Mapping the establishment of fibroblast heterogeneity during skin development and wound repair
This study identified two distinct fibroblast subsets in mouse skin, revealing that adult skin scarring occurs due to the repair process utilizing only one, lineage-restricted fibroblast type instead of coordinated diverse populations.
research Brg1 Governs a Positive Feedback Circuit in the Hair Follicle for Tissue Regeneration and Repair
This study found that Brg1, a chromatin-remodeling enzyme, plays a critical role in hair regeneration and early epidermal repair by regulating bulge stem cells through a Brg1-Shh interaction.
