Activating β-catenin in mammary cells leads to changes that cause early-stage abnormal growths similar to skin structures.
research A Two-Phase Model of Skin Epidermal Stratification: Lessons from Centrosomes
Removing centrosomes from skin cells leads to thinner skin and stops hair growth, but does not greatly affect skin cell differentiation.
research Molecular Basis of Maintaining Circannual Rhythm in the Skin of Cashmere Goat
Goat skin changes with the seasons due to genes affected by daylight and hormones.
research Rac-Dependent Signaling from Keratinocytes Promotes Differentiation of Intradermal White Adipocytes
Signals from skin cells controlled by Rac proteins help turn certain precursor cells into white fat cells.
