This case report describes a giant pigmented tumor of the scalp in a 47-year-old woman and suggests a possible dual origin involving neural crest differentiation.

This study found that protease nexin-1 mRNA is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and is downregulated by dihydrotestosterone in balding scalp, suggesting a role in male-pattern baldness progression.

This report introduces a tissue-engineered nerve conduit combining hfNCSCs-derived neurons and acellular nerve grafts to potentially repair long-distance peripheral nerve injuries.

Hair follicles can be used to easily create neurons and glial cells for potential nerve repair.

In this study, nestin-expressing cells in the hair follicle bulge, marked by GFP in transgenic mice, were identified as progenitors of the hair follicle outer-root sheath.

This study suggests that PrPC plays a role in the differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells during neurogenesis, impacting neural progenitor cell development.

This study identified intramembrane proteolysis as a key feature of Astrotactin2 maturation, providing insights into its role in planar cell polarity hair patterning.

This study observed that osteopontin mRNA levels in rat hair follicles vary throughout the hair cycle, peaking during the catagen phase and disappearing in the telogen and anagen phases.

This study suggests that glycoproteins tenascin-C and tenascin-W may influence the migration and proliferation of CD34-positive stem cells in mouse whisker follicles.

This study found that neurotrophins produced by balding dermal papilla cells inhibited both their proliferation and hair follicle growth in vitro, suggesting a potential role in androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that human adult dermal fibroblasts can express markers typically associated with neural cells, suggesting potential pitfalls in relying on immunophenotyping alone for cell identity verification.

This study found that the protein CCN2 in dermal papilla cells is a physiologically relevant suppressor of hair follicle formation by destabilizing β-catenin, which may help maintain stem cell quiescence.

Folliculin slows hair growth, and blocking it might help treat hair loss.

This study found that transplanting human hair follicle pluripotent stem cells can promote the recovery of sciatic nerve function in a mouse model of nerve impingement.

Noggin promotes skin tumors by activating certain cell signaling pathways.

In this study, HDAC inhibitors promoted the differentiation of rat C6 glioma cells through the production of 5α‐reduced neurosteroids, enhancing serotonin-stimulated BDNF gene expression.

This study identified a population of GFP-expressing nestin-positive cells in transgenic mice hair follicles that varied in location during different hair cycle phases, suggesting a shared relationship with neural stem cells.

This study demonstrated that keratin derived from human hair can improve axon extension and alleviate motor deficits from sciatic nerve injuries, highlighting its potential as a promising biomaterial for peripheral nerve regeneration.

This study found that a newly identified gene, mK17n, may explain the lack of nail issues in mK17 null mice by compensating for mK17's function in the nail bed.

In this study, researchers found that syntaxin 9, a novel syntaxin family member, interacts specifically with the epidermal growth factor receptor and may influence its transport and signaling in some epithelial cells.

This study suggests that nerve growth factor plays a crucial role in the stress-induced termination of hair growth in mice, and its antagonism might offer a therapeutic approach to mitigate stress-related hair loss.

This article discusses the role of epimorphin as a key morphoregulator for various epithelial cells in tubulogenesis and reports no experimental results on its signaling pathways.

GNPTAB gene is crucial for normal hair color in humans and mice.

In this study, exosome-mimetic nanovesicles derived from ReNcell VM cells promoted hair growth in mice by enhancing dermal papilla cell proliferation and activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

In this study, exosome-mimetic nanovesicles derived from neural progenitor cells promoted hair follicle regeneration in mice by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This study found that presynaptic inhibition of Aαβ cutaneous primary afferents in cats is mostly mediated by GABAergic interneurons that also contain glycine.
