EGFR is essential for organized skin nerve growth and branching.

This article discusses the mini-lift as a cosmetic procedure for minor cheek and neck laxity, emphasizing its benefits like quicker recovery and minimal incisions, but provides no new clinical data.

This study in adult mice found that somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in the skin are highly plastic, with significant remodeling in response to epithelial turnover, and that Merkel cells play a role in limiting axonal branching and promoting their maturation.

This study found that methylene blue staining may reveal anatomical details of intraepidermal nerve fibre endings in the rat mystacial pad with greater clarity than the zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide technique.

This study observed that methylene blue staining and zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide techniques effectively revealed anatomical details of intraepidermal nerve fibre endings in the rat's mystacial pad, suggesting their potential role in mechanoreception.

This study revealed the complex three-dimensional innervation of touch domes in cat forepaw skin, highlighting the extensive branching and unmyelinated endings associated with Merkel cell–axon complexes.

In this study, researchers developed a three-dimensional ultrastructural analysis tool using serial block-face scanning electron microscopy to reveal detailed nerve networks and muscle structures in human skin tissues, demonstrating the technique's potential to study structural changes in aging or disease.

This study in mice found that MEIS2 expression in mesenchymal dermal cells is crucial for the formation of whiskers and the initial steps of epithelial placode development, independently of sensory nerve innervation or Foxd1 expression.

This research describes a crucial role for Meis2 expression in mesenchymal cells derived from the neural crest for whisker formation, showing that whiskers can develop without sensory innervation or FOXD1 expression, highlighting an early function of MEIS2.

This study found that macrophages play a crucial role in nerve regeneration by regulating Schwann cell dynamics and remyelination, with Gas6 identified as a key factor in this process.

In this study, researchers observed that spiral ganglion neurites created more branched networks near FGF-1-coupled beads compared to control beads, highlighting FGF-1's role in hair cell innervation development.

This study found that male and female chicken feather morphology and color patterns can be extrinsically modified through molting and resetting the stem cell niche during regeneration.
