This study found that Super Merino sheep have a higher wool follicle density, finer fleece, and distinct gene expression compared to Small Tail Han sheep, which may inform future breeding and genetic interventions.

This chapter reviews the role of androgen receptors in mediating the actions of androgens in specific tissues and provides no new experimental findings.

This study reported that pathways related to apoptosis, cell proliferation, and WNT signaling might be key drivers of hair loss in androgenetic alopecia, guiding potential targets for therapy development.

This study found that ARHGEF3 is crucial for hair follicle development in mice, as its absence leads to defects in placode compaction and impaired follicle downgrowth, highlighting its role in regulating cell shape rearrangements during embryogenesis.

In this review, researchers discussed recent insights into caspases, enzymes initially associated with cell death and inflammation, revealing their broader roles in cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation, and highlighting the importance of caspase knock-out mice for understanding their implications in diseases.

This review summarizes existing evidence on how YAP and TAZ proteins are activated in epidermal keratinocytes and their role in coordinating with other signaling molecules to control transcription and influence epidermal cell fate, highlighting their importance beyond the Hippo pathway.

In this study, researchers reviewed the roles of autophagy and mitophagy in hair follicle cycles, exploring their potential links to hair loss and investigating how manipulating these pathways might offer new therapeutic strategies.

This review discusses the biochemical and biological functions of histone demethylases and their potential involvement in human diseases, including cancer, but reports no new findings.

This study identified upregulation of genes linked to fibroproliferative disorders, such as platelet-derived growth factor and collagen genes, in patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, suggesting potential therapeutic targets.

This study found that fibromodulin significantly reduces scar formation and boosts scar strength in rodent and porcine models, suggesting potential for FMOD-based therapies in cutaneous wound repair.

This study found distinct differences in protein expression and wound healing pathways between Acomys cahirinus and Mus musculus, highlighting potential targets for reducing fibrotic response in mammals.

In this study, researchers using single nuclei RNA-sequencing found that fibroblasts in deeper layers of mouse skin expressed higher levels of pro-inflammatory genes post-wounding compared to other cells, highlighting their significant role in early inflammation and tissue repair processes.

This study found that the trichogenicity of cultured human outer root sheath follicular keratinocytes decreased with longer cultivation periods and was significantly influenced by the expression of the transcription factor FOXA2.

This study synthesizes knowledge of how dendritic cell signals, epithelial integrins, and fibroblast activity converge on TGF-β1 to maintain or disrupt skin healing, contrasting normal and fibrotic scar formation and suggesting possible integrin and immune-targeted treatments for skin fibrosis.
