This study found that during hair follicle morphogenesis in embryos, the expression pattern of the Hoxc13 gene and skin thickness show similar trends, suggesting possible regulatory mechanisms within Hoxc13 intron regions.

This review discusses the expression patterns and biochemical roles of Msx and Dlx genes during development but does not present new research findings.

This research suggests that hair keratins evolved from claw keratins in a hairless ancestor, with Hoxc13 controlling their expression in tetrapods, evidenced by the knockout of Hoxc13 hindering claw formation in Xenopus tropicalis frogs.

This study found that overexpressing the Hoxc13 gene in mice causes hair loss and a skin condition similar to ichthyosis, identifying several gene targets that may regulate hair growth.

This study found that Hopx labels a long-lived progenitor population in hair follicles, which contributes to hair follicle stem cell homeostasis and has an alternative origin from previously thought progenitors.

This study found that Hex gene expression patterns in chick embryo dorsal skin during feather bud development suggest a significant role in initiating feather morphogenesis.

This study found that Msx2-deficient mice exhibit skull and bone formation defects similar to those seen in human MSX2-related conditions, highlighting the gene's importance in skeletal and organ development.

This study suggests that distinct chromatin topologies allow different lineage-specific enhancers to regulate Hoxd genes in mouse vibrissae and chicken feather primordia, while conserved regulatory elements maintain transcriptional robustness in the embryonic trunk across species.

This study found that overexpression of Hoxc13 in GC13 mouse models affects hair follicle differentiation by interacting with medulla-specific genes, particularly Foxq1, suggesting a regulatory pathway for medulla differentiation.

In this study, LHX2 and SOX9 were found to mark distinct epithelial progenitor cell populations within human hair follicles, suggesting roles in maintaining the hair follicle epithelium.

Type I keratin genes are closely linked to the rex locus on mouse chromosome 11, affecting hair development.

Hoxc13 is important for hair and tongue development by controlling hair keratin genes.

In this study, transgenic mice expressing Msx-2 developed flaky skin with hyperproliferation and misalignment in epidermal cells, suggesting Msx-2 plays a role in skin and appendage growth control.

In this study of mouse embryos, the researchers found that the expression of the Lhx2 gene plays a significant role in wound healing and may promote scar formation in later stages of development.

This study identified a critical NF-κB-LHX2-TGFβ2 signaling pathway essential for primary hair follicle development in mice, revealing new insights into the underlying mechanisms of morphogenesis.

This study found that the Foxn1(-/-) nude phenotype significantly influences epithelial progeny in skin, with notable changes in stem cell niches not achievable in other models.

This study found that higher expression of the Hoxc13 gene in specific areas of hair follicles is associated with longer wool length in Gansu alpine fine-wool sheep.

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.

In this study, Msx-2 knockout mice showed enhanced re-epithelialization and faster wound closure compared to wild-type controls, suggesting Msx-2 may influence skin morphogenesis during wound repair.

This study found that the transcription factors Msx2 and Foxn1 are crucial for maintaining Notch1 expression in the hair follicle matrix, which is necessary for proper hair differentiation.

This study found that Eda and activin A regulate Foxi3 expression, which may contribute to the development of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia by affecting Foxi3 activity in ectodermal appendages like hair and teeth.

This study found that HIF-P4H-2 function in FoxD1-lineage cells is crucial for normal hair follicle development and homeostasis in mice, implicating disrupted HIF, TGF-β, and Notch signaling pathways in associated defects.

This study found that loss-of-function mutations in the HOXC13 gene cause autosomal-recessive pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia, emphasizing its role in hair and nail development.

This study revealed that heterozygous mice with the hairy ear mutation exhibited significant gene expression changes related to hair growth, such as upregulation of hair keratin and keratin-associated proteins, shedding light on the Hoxc gene cluster's role in this phenotype.

This study revealed that Patched receptors establish a Hedgehog signaling gradient in developing hair follicles, which may influence their formation and potentially offer a diagnostic tool for distinguishing Hedgehog-driven tumors.

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 discusses the involvement of Hedgehog signaling in various human cancers, detailing different mechanisms of pathway activation and highlighting the potential for therapeutic targeting through pathway inhibition.

In this study, researchers used conditional mouse models to show that inactivation of the Alx4 gene in specific cell lineages leads to craniofacial and limb defects without affecting postnatal survival, providing insights into Alx4's role in development and disease.

This study found that depleting HIF-P4H-2 in FoxD1-lineage cells in mice led to disrupted hair follicle development, resulting in truncal alopecia but normal cranial hair, suggesting its crucial role in hair homeostasis.

This study identified a 195 bp duplication in crested chickens that causes large crest feathers and can be associated with cerebral hernia in some breeds, but not all.
