In this study, specific genetic polymorphisms in the KRT71 gene were associated with hairless and curly phenotypes in Sphynx and Devon Rex cats.

This review discusses recent advances in hair follicle biology, regeneration, and tissue engineering, highlighting emerging therapeutic opportunities, and reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the role of keratins in maintaining epidermal structure and function and reports no new results; the authors emphasize the lack of rational therapies for skin disorders linked to keratin mutations.

The study reports that Fgf18 and Tgf-β2 signaling pathways in hair follicle stem cells have opposing effects on the timing of hair cycle transitions, influencing the shift from telogen to anagen phases.

This study found that quiescence in hair follicle stem cells acts as a tumor suppression mechanism for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, with Pten activity necessary to maintain this state.

This review discusses the role of mechanical forces in skin homeostasis and disease development, including their impact on conditions like keloids, androgenetic alopecia, and acral melanoma, and reports no clinical results; the authors propose modifying these forces as a potential therapeutic strategy.

This study identified distinct human and bacterial protein profiles in sebaceous follicular casts, with acne samples showing proteins linked to inflammation and normal samples showing proteins involved in stress protection.

This study found distinct gene expression profiles in alopecia areata-affected skin, suggesting T-cell mediated immune responses and unique gene profiles between different stages of the disease.

This review examines the location and markers of hair follicle stem cells, finding that they are primarily located in the bulge region and can contribute to various skin structures, but challenges remain in distinguishing them from their progeny.

This study found that the creation of hair follicle lumens in mice is driven by the outward migration of keratin 79-positive cells, suggesting a novel mechanism for generating hollow cores in hair follicles.

This article explores how extrafollicular environments and stem cell configurations influence hair and feather regeneration but provides no new experimental results.

This review discusses recent findings on hair follicle morphogenesis and regeneration, focusing on molecular signals and stem cells, and suggests that understanding these processes may aid in developing new strategies for wound healing.

This study observed that in aged mouse skin, there was an increase in IL-17-expressing T helper cells, γδ T cells, and innate lymphoid cells, and blocking IL-17 signaling reduced skin inflammation and delayed age-related changes, suggesting it as a potential target to mitigate skin aging.

This study found that a new topical nitric oxide gel significantly accelerated burn wound healing in mice by enhancing re-epithelialization, hair follicle regeneration, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis compared to controls.

This review discusses the role of miRNA/mRNA regulatory networks in skin development, epidermal homeostasis, and tissue remodeling, and suggests potential for miRNA-based therapies in treating skin conditions, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that WNT10A is significantly upregulated in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and is associated with enhanced tumor cell migration, invasion, and poor survival.

In this study, mouse sweat gland development relied on a regulatory sequence initiated by Wnt/β-catenin signaling, and disruptions in Wnt, Eda, or Shh pathways led to distinct developmental failures.

This study found that the JMJD3/NF-κB-Notch1 pathway plays a crucial role in regulating keratinocyte migration and skin wound healing, with Notch1 affecting key genes involved in cell migration.

This study found that mice lacking the Vitamin D receptor showed disrupted hair follicle cycling, which was partially restored with hedgehog signaling pathway activation, suggesting a role for this pathway in follicle regulation independent of vitamin D.

This study found that the microRNA miR-22 is a key regulator of the hair cycle, influencing hair loss by promoting the transition from growth to rest phases and repressing keratinocyte differentiation.

This review presents updated tables of mouse mutants with hair growth abnormalities to aid in understanding the molecular mechanisms of human hair disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This study highlights that the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2)-Akt signaling axis is essential for hair follicle stem cells to return to their niche and regenerate effectively by regulating metabolic pathways.

This study analyzed skin from 538 knockout mouse mutants and identified 50 with epidermal phenotypes, providing valuable insights into genetic conditions and systemic effects related to skin abnormalities.

This study suggests that Botox injections may increase hair count and reduce hair loss in men with androgenetic alopecia, potentially through increased blood flow and oxygen to the scalp.

This study reports the creation of rat liver stem cell lines that can differentiate into hepatocytes and suggests they might be useful for pharmacological and regenerative medicine applications.

This article reviews the genetic and protein interactions involved in hair growth, highlighting regulatory sequences, expression patterns, and potential genetic modifications, but presents no new experimental findings.

This study found that hair follicle and interfollicular epidermis stem cells contribute differently to skin regeneration, with their persistence influenced by factors like spatial constraints and competition moderated by Notch suppression.

This review explores genetic and lifestyle factors influencing hair diversity and reports no new findings, calling attention to the potential for future discoveries in genetic and epigenetic research.

This study found that lymphatic vessels in mice are important for hair follicle development and organization, as their depletion blocks hair growth.

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.
