This study identified 77 genes with significant expression changes in expanded human skin, suggesting possible mechanisms for skin regeneration during tissue expansion, including previously unreported genes like HOXA5, HOXB2, and AP1.

This study identified a wide range of differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs in the hair follicles of Hetian sheep, which may be useful for further research on improving carpet wool quality.

Understanding and targeting specific molecules can help reduce scarring and promote scar-free healing.

In this study, a deficiency in the zinc finger protein Zfp462 in mice led to anxiety-like behaviors and excessive self-grooming, providing a new model for studying anxiety disorders.

This meeting in Heidelberg highlighted diverse contributions on stem cell research, including pre-clinical and clinical applications, but reported no new experimental results.

In this study, significant upregulation of the genes SFRP2 and PTGDS was found in bald hair follicles of female pattern hair loss patients compared to non-bald follicles, suggesting these genes may be biomarkers and play a role in hair loss for this condition.

This study identified SFRP2 and PTGDS as potential biomarkers for female pattern hair loss, finding these genes consistently upregulated in bald hair follicles from all 18 patients, which may contribute to understanding the condition's pathogenesis and developing targeted treatments.

This review discusses the characteristics, potential genetic components, and treatment options for trichotillomania, a psychiatric condition that involves compulsive hair pulling, without reporting new clinical results.

This study highlights that improved diagnostic techniques for prostate cancer could decrease the number of men needing diagnosis and treatment to save one life and identifies avoidable risk factors, such as smoking, diet, and occupation, that may influence prostate cancer risk.

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 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 shows that differences in Hoxc gene expression in hair follicle mesenchyme along the body axis contribute to regional variations in mammalian hair growth.

This review summarizes the role of Hoxc13 in regulating hair follicle development and growth, noting its influence on keratin and keratin-associated proteins, and reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that Hoxc gene expression can reprogram mesenchymal dermal papilla cells, enhance epithelial stem cell regenerative potential, and promote region-specific hair follicle regeneration through Wnt signaling.

This study found that the HoxC gene cluster is crucial for the development of hair and nails in mice, with key regulation by two mammalian-specific enhancers.

This study characterized the Hoxc-13 gene from sheep wool follicles, noting its potential autoregulatory role and potential influence on skin function beyond hair keratin regulation.

This study found that Hoxc13 mutations in mice cause defects in hair, nail, and tongue structures, with the most noticeable issue being brittle hair leading to alopecia.

This study found that the HoxC gene cluster plays a critical role in the development of ectodermal organs, including hair and nails, with mammalian-specific enhancers increasing transcription levels during development.

Hox genes control hair follicle stem cell regeneration in different body regions.

This review synthesizes the diverse roles of the transcription factor LHX2 in development, tissue maintenance, and injury repair across various organ systems, highlighting its potential therapeutic applications and significance in regenerative medicine, particularly in developmental disorders and tissue regeneration.

This study found that in early retinal neurogenesis in mice, the transcription factor Lhx2 regulates Sonic Hedgehog signaling by controlling expression of pathway genes like the co-receptors Gas1 and Cdon.

This study found that the transcription factor Lhx2 regulates Sonic Hedgehog signaling in mouse retinal progenitor cells, mainly by controlling the expression of co-receptors essential for effective pathway activation during early retinal neurogenesis.

This study found that the Lim-homeodomain transcription factor Lhx2 regulates Sonic Hedgehog signaling during early retinal neurogenesis in mice by controlling the expression of pathway genes in retinal progenitor cells.

This study demonstrated that HOXC13 directly influences hair keratin gene expression by binding to specific DNA motifs, suggesting its role in early hair follicle differentiation.

This study found that the unique crest feather formation in Polish chickens is driven by a 195-bp duplication in the HoxC10 gene region, which alters gene expression by modifying the genomic structure, suggesting a mechanism for diverse integumentary appendages in birds.

In this study, the misshaped and hairy ear phenotype in mutant mice was linked to mis-expression of certain Hoxc genes due to a chromosomal inversion.

This study observed that distinct subsets of Hoxd genes in murine vibrissae and chicken feather primordia are regulated by different lineage-specific enhancers, indicating evolutionary changes in chromatin topology contribute to transcriptional robustness.

This study suggests a regulatory model where HOXC13 activates Foxn1, affecting hair and nail differentiation, supported by similarities in Hoxc13(tm1Mrc) and Foxn1(nu) mice phenotypes and gene expression patterns.
