This study identified an unexpected critical role for the FATP4 protein in skin and hair development in mice, linking it to a potential candidate gene for restrictive dermopathy in humans.

This study found that the mK6alpha and mK6beta genes in mice are regulated differently at the mRNA level, with implications for understanding K6 gene evolution and function in mammals.

This study found that proanthocyanidins from grape seeds significantly promote hair follicle cell proliferation and hair cycle transition in mice, suggesting their potential as hair growth agents.

This study found that MRL/MpJ mouse dorsal skin wounds heal with similar scar formation and collagen deposition as C57bl/6 and Balb/c mice.

Human cathepsin V can replace mouse cathepsin L to maintain normal skin and hair in mice.

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 demonstrated that metabolomics could identify persistent biomarkers distinguishing between heavy ion and γ radiation exposures, offering a potential tool for assessing long-term radiation risk for intestinal pathologies.

In this study, researchers observed that rhino mice exhibit significant ductal hyperkeratinization in the meibomian gland, which may represent the first naturally occurring disorder of this gland in mice.

This review revisits the mechanisms of wound induced hair follicle neogenesis in mice and concludes that the process involves canonical WNT signaling activated by Fgf9 from γδ T cells, but more research is needed to fully understand its cellular bases.

This study found that Bcl-xL deficiency in mice increased apoptosis and resistance to skin tumor development, highlighting Bcl-xL's role in early skin carcinogenesis through anti-apoptotic functions.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.

This study found that twice-daily intradermal injections of mouse epidermal growth factor in Merino sheep resulted in dose-dependent changes in wool follicles and fibres, including induction of catagen and subsequent regeneration.

Hairless mice lack fur due to a genetic mutation affecting skin response, not hormone issues.

This study found that the unique functions of keratin 16 are likely determined by its tail domain, challenging the previous hypothesis about the role of the helix 1B subdomain.

This study suggests that potassium channel openers, such as minoxidil, may stimulate hair growth by retarding the loss of proliferative activity in mouse hair follicles.

This study developed a kidney-specific knockout mouse model lacking the Flcn gene, which recapitulates human Birt-Hogg-Dubé kidney tumorigenesis and shows that mTOR pathway inhibition with rapamycin can suppress tumor growth.

This study found that treating mouse epidermal neural crest stem cells with EGF and FGF2 increased their proliferation and enhanced their neuronal differentiation potential.

This research found that activating a KrasG12D mutation in mice led to skin thickening, papillomas, and hair growth issues, suggesting that even rare KRAS mutations can mimic human RAS/MAPK syndrome symptoms.

This study found that miR-124 may facilitate the differentiation of hair follicle stem cells into neuronal cells by targeting Sox9 and Ptbp1.

Sca-1+ cells in newborn mouse skin may become fat cells.

This study found that mutations in type I IRS keratin genes disrupt keratin protein complexes in mice, suggesting crucial roles for these genes in proper hair coat formation.

This study suggests that progesterone has both THP/GABAA-dependent and independent anticonvulsive effects in a hippocampal-kindled mouse model.

This study found that in a transgenic mouse model, β-HPV infection led to increased skin thickness and proliferation of specific keratinocyte stem cells, which may contribute to squamous cell carcinoma development.

This study suggests that while VDR is crucial for maintaining hair follicles in mice, their degeneration may be linked to impaired cell migration during hair growth phases rather than stem cell loss.

This article discusses the discovery of the first known menstruating rodent, the spiny mouse, and proposes that a significant increase in progesterone during the luteal phase is a unique feature of menstruating species, but reports no new experimental results.

This study in mice found that butin, a component of Vernonia anthelmintica, increased melanin production and related proteins while reducing oxidative stress markers in a model of hydroquinone-induced vitiligo, suggesting support for its traditional use against this condition.

This study found that KLF4 expression in mouse hair follicle stem cells is important for effective cutaneous wound healing, with its knockdown leading to reduced stem cell populations and delayed healing.

This study explored the effects of a new narrow-band red LED light on hair growth in mice, showing potential benefits compared to existing laser therapies.

This study found that cupric chloride treatment may partially correct delayed maturation and abnormal arborization of Purkinje cells in the cerebellum of hemizygous brindled mice, a model for Kinky hair disease.
