research Variable Expressivity of Syndromic BMP4-Related Eye, Brain, and Digital Anomalies: A Review of the Literature and Description of Three New Cases
BMP4-related anomalies can cause a wide range of eye, brain, and hand/foot problems, and new cases show this variability.
research Cell Death as an Architect of Adult Skin Stem Cell Niches
Cell death shapes skin stem cell environments, affecting inflammation, repair, and cancer.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cell Progeny Heal Blisters While Pausing Skin Development
Skin healing from blisters can delay hair growth as stem cells focus on repairing skin over developing hair.
research The Fraser Complex Proteins Can Form Anchoring Cords Without AMACO at the Dermal-Epidermal Junction of Mouse Skin
Certain skin proteins can form anchoring structures without the protein AMACO.
research Identification of Dkk4 as a Target of Eda-A1/Edar Pathway Reveals an Unexpected Role of Ectodysplasin as Inhibitor of Wnt Signaling in Ectodermal Placodes

research Ptch2 Is a Potential Regulator of Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Ptch2 plays a key role in controlling stem cell function and the ability to regenerate after birth.
research Epidermal Growth Factor as a Biological Switch in Hair Growth Cycle
EGF controls hair growth by regulating hair follicles' growth phases.
research Primary Follicular Dystrophy With Scarring Dermatitis in C57BL/6 Mouse Substrains Resembles Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia in Humans
Certain mouse strains develop a skin condition similar to a human hair loss disease due to genetic defects.
research Distinct Developmental Functions of Prostasin (CAP1/PRSS8) Zymogen and Activated Prostasin
Prostasin has two roles in skin: one for normal skin development without needing activation, and another for proper hair growth that requires activation.
