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

In this study, researchers identified an autosomal dominant mutation (E402K) in exon 7 of the KRT86 gene as a cause of Monilethrix in a large family from Turkey.

This study found that NKIRAS2 expression affects skin tumor suppression and HRAS-driven transformation in mice, indicating its role in carcinogenesis depends on expression level and cellular context.

This study found that Krtap11-1 may play an important role in keratin-bundle assembly in the hair cortex, influencing the physical properties of hair.

This study found that among the two highly homologous K16 genes on chromosome 17, only one produced a functional protein due to stronger promoter activity.

This report expands the known genetic mutations linked to monilethrix by identifying new patients with KRT83 mutations, confirming its role as a causative gene for this hair disorder.

This review discusses the reuse of molecular mechanisms involved in embryonic skin development for maintaining adult epidermal homeostasis and reports no new results.

Lgr5 is a marker for active, long-lasting stem cells in mouse hair follicles.

This study reports the first instance of skin autotomy in mammals, specifically in African spiny mice, and suggests they may possess a greater regenerative capacity than previously understood, possibly offering insights for regenerative medicine.

This study developed molecular signatures for dermal papilla cells and their niche, uncovering novel signaling regulators and genes linked to hair disorders, which may inform future hair development research.

This study found that, in mouse tail epidermis, stem cells rapidly activate and regenerate new progenitors to repair wounds, with mechanisms affecting their proliferation, differentiation, and migration.

In this study, researchers found that wound healing in mouse skin recruits diverse fibroblasts, including myeloid-derived cells, which contribute to regenerating adipocytes.

This study found that TRPA1-deficient mice exhibited normal cold sensitivity but had decreased mechanical response in nociceptors, suggesting TRPA1's role in mechanotransduction.

This research found that Foxc1 transcription factor and COL17A1 are critical in regulating quiescence and hair thinning in hair follicle stem cells, with aging-related DNA damage leading to hair loss.

This review discusses the identification and characteristics of melanocyte stem cells, emphasizing their role in hair pigmentation, greying, and skin repigmentation, but reports no new research findings.

Two main types of fibroblasts with unique functions and additional subtypes were identified in human skin.

This article reviews the complex signaling pathways between epithelial and mesenchymal cells crucial for hair follicle morphogenesis, highlighting the Wnt pathway's role as a master regulator without reporting new experimental findings.

This review explores recent insights into the diverse cell populations involved in skin development, homeostasis, wound healing, and cancer progression but reports no new results.

PGD2 stops hair growth and is higher in bald men with AGA.

A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.

This study found that polycomb-group-mediated repression plays a key role in regulating hair follicle stem cell states and lineage progression by distinct mechanisms in adult mouse skin.

This study identified a distinct cytokine activation signature in alopecia areata, involving TH2, TH1, IL-23, and IL-9/TH9 pathways, suggesting potential targeting strategies similar to those in psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.

This study found that squamous cell carcinomas from hair follicle stem cells are more prone to epithelial to mesenchymal transition and metastasis than those from interfollicular epidermis, due to distinct chromatin landscapes.

This study found that Wnt signalling activates hair follicle fate in hair follicle stem cells by relieving TCF3/4–TLE-mediated repression, with β-catenin being crucial for this process.

This study observed that applying JAK-STAT pathway inhibitors to mouse and human skin led to rapid hair growth by inducing the anagen phase of hair follicles.

This study found that aging in the epidermis disrupts cytokine balance and stem cell function, which may contribute to broader tumor-suppressive mechanisms.

Male hormones affect COVID-19 severity and certain drugs targeting these hormones could help reduce the risk.

This review explores how adipose-derived stem cells contribute to skin homeostasis and highlights recent advances in their clinical applications in dermatology, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses recent findings on the plasticity and regulation of epithelial stem cells and reports no new experimental results.
