This study identified Lgr5 and Lgr6 as receptors expressed by small populations of stem cells in various adult organs, with Lgr5+ve cells forming long-lived organoids in certain mouse models.

This study found that misexpression of Hoxc8 in mice led to ectopic mammary development and suggests Hox genes may play crucial roles in the regional specification and initiation of cutaneous accessory organs.

In this study, researchers found that during late pregnancy, neuroactive steroid fluctuations increase the number of extrasynaptic GABAA receptors in rat hippocampal cells.

Dutasteride may help treat prostate cancer by causing cancer cells to shrink and die.

This study found that the SVpgC2a keratinocyte cell line, used as a model for dysplastic epithelium, showed increased apoptosis, proliferation, and aberrant keratin expression compared to normal keratinocytes from buccal mucosa.

This study found that nuclear beta-catenin, LEF1, and PHLDA1 expression was conserved in matrical tumors, suggesting a shared tumorigenesis process involving Wnt pathway activation.

This study found that the ID2 gene was highly expressed in bulge-derived keratinocytes when exposed to contact sensitizers and may serve as a marker to distinguish sensitizers from irritants during in vitro testing.

This study found that diphencyprone showed a significant clinical response for treating alopecia areata, while tacrolimus was not effective.

This study observed structural and molecular changes in Ganxi goat skin that adapt to hot and humid climates and suggested that GSDMA might play a role in hair follicle regulation and skin homeostasis, though further research is needed to confirm its function in environmental adaptation.

This study found that Krox20 marks a diverse stem cell population in mouse hair follicles, which significantly contributes to the interfollicular epidermis and regulates epidermal homeostasis.

This study found that p21 is much more highly expressed in normal melanocytes compared to melanoma cells, suggesting a potential target for preventing melanoma progression through cell cycle repair processes.

This study explored the use of "microfollicles," a human hair follicle organoid model, as an in vitro tool for testing hair-growth substances, finding up to 75% overlap in gene expression changes with human clinical biopsy responses to minoxidil, indicating its potential for pre-clinical substance testing.

In this study, researchers identified IL18R+ thymus-resident regulatory T cells in mice, demonstrating their unique molecular features and resistance to age- and stress-induced thymus involution, highlighting IL18 signaling's role in Treg migration and retention.

This study adapted a method for culturing melanocytes from human hair follicles to horses, successfully creating partially melanotic equine melanocytes, potentially advancing hair follicle biology research across species.

This study found that coculturing human hair follicle keratinocyte stem cells with dermal papilla cells increased expression of the hair-specific keratin 6hf gene, which requires β-catenin/lef-1 signaling for hair differentiation.

This study reports that chemically induced short anogenital distance in male rat fetuses involved distinctive transcriptional changes, suggesting roles for estrogen and Wnt2 signaling in anogenital tissue development.

This study successfully improved methods for isolating, culturing, and purifying rat hair follicle stem cells, demonstrating their high purity, strong proliferation, and potential for adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation in vitro, which could support advancements in tissue engineering.

This study reports various immunophenotypical patterns in apocrine mixed skin tumors, resembling the structures of hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and apocrine glands.

This study observed that albino rats, despite not producing melanin, have melanocytes localized in specific skin areas of their hair matrix, suggesting that gene expression analysis of their skin should consider regional differences in melanocyte presence.

This study suggests that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells from diabetic mice can enhance wound healing by promoting fibroblast growth, migration, angiogenesis, and differentiation into fibroblasts and endothelial cells.

This study found that the development of Merkel cell carcinoma from hair follicles in mice can be driven by in vivo reprogramming with ATOH1 and relies on p53 loss for progression.

This study found that antroquinonol inhibited CD8+ T cell proliferation and reduced proinflammatory cytokine secretion in vitro, while also ameliorating H2O2-induced depigmentation and resisting reductions in hair follicle length, skin thickness, and tyrosinase expression in mice.

This study found that adding keratin to a collagen hydrogel improved keratinocyte differentiation compared to a pure collagen hydrogel, particularly when calcium was also present in the media.

In this study, fibroblasts from long-term skin biopsy cultures retained their ability to reprogram into induced pluripotent stem cells after 16 months, despite undergoing transcriptional changes and decreased proliferation rates over successive generations.

This study explored the diversity of melanocyte stem cell subpopulations in the hair follicles of adult female mice and identified novel groups with distinct immune privilege regulation, suggesting a heterogeneous landscape that future research should consider.

This study suggests that hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells may alleviate small intestinal ischaemia-reperfusion injury in rats by promoting angiogenesis, reducing apoptosis, and protecting intestinal mucosal function.

This study found that autophagy is impaired in Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome-associated renal tumors and identified that the FLCN protein interacts with key autophagy components regulated by ULK1.

This study demonstrated that engineered skin substitutes using human keratinocytes and murine dermal papilla cells can develop pigmented hairs without sebaceous glands, suggesting separate pathways for hair development and eruption.

This study found that melanocyte progenitor cells are present in human subcutaneous adipose tissue and may differentiate into mature melanocytes, suggesting potential applications in treating skin diseases and rejuvenation.

This study suggests that D-panthenol may promote hair growth by enhancing cell viability, suppressing apoptosis markers, and elongating the anagen phase in human hair follicle cells.
