In this study, researchers observed that HIF1α is expressed in germ cells throughout fetal and neonatal development, suggesting it may regulate telomerase activity and maintain the undifferentiated state of stem/progenitor cells.

This study found that activating PKM2 and Wnt/β-catenin signaling enhanced hair regrowth and hair follicle stem cell proliferation in mice, suggesting a potential alopecia treatment strategy.

This study reports for the first time on the expression patterns of Id2 and Id3 proteins in developing hair follicles, suggesting a significant role for these proteins in hair follicle development and epithelial-mesenchymal interactions.

This study found that cytoplasmic nucleic acids significantly increase the expression of certain chemokines in human keratinocytes through NF-κB activation, though the specific receptors involved remain unidentified.

This study found that K79+ keratinocytes migrate outward to help form the hair follicle lumen both during development and adult regeneration, revealing a novel mechanism of hair follicle formation in mice.

This review discusses the multifunctional role of PKM2 in promoting cardiac repair and regeneration, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target in cardiovascular medicine, but reports no new experimental results.

This review explores the role of Foxn1 in mammalian skin biology, discussing its influence on hair follicle function and the potential for further research to enhance understanding of epithelial differentiation.

This study found that Sonic hedgehog signaling is crucial for Merkel cell development around hair follicles in mice, with Polycomb repressive complex 2 loss causing ectopic Merkel cells across all hair types.

Keratin gene clusters in humans and marsupials are similarly organized.

This study found that activation of delta-opioid receptors in keratinocytes may delay the expression of the PER2 gene, suggesting a possible link to cancer development through circadian rhythm disruption.

In this study, researchers identified key lncRNAs and target genes potentially involved in the transformation of the hair follicle cycle, which could advance understanding of lncRNAs' roles in hair follicle development.

In this study using mice and human keratinocyte cells, researchers found that activating PKM2-mediated glycolysis and Wnt/β-catenin signaling, particularly via combined treatments, significantly accelerated wound healing and induced angiogenesis in wound beds.

In this study, researchers found that overexpression of the Hedgehog signaling effector Gli2 in mice led to odontogenic keratocysts development, implicating GLI transcription factors in human keratocyst pathogenesis.

In this study, a deep neural network model called regX was developed to prioritize driver regulators for cell state transitions by incorporating gene-level regulation and interactions, showing potential therapeutic targets in type 2 diabetes and hair follicle development when applied to single-cell multi-omics data.

This study observed similar D2-40 expression in scarring and nonscarring alopecia, with some increase in scarring cases, suggesting possible Fos-dependent mechanisms, though more research is needed for definitive conclusions.

Lgr5 is a marker for active, long-lasting stem cells in mouse hair follicles.

This study found that stressed dermal fibroblasts significantly increased dopa oxidase activity in melanocytes from hair, skin, and eyes, suggesting the involvement of fibroblast-derived factors like basic Fibroblast Growth Factor.

This study found that thymus transplantation in infants with FOXN1 deficiency led to T-cell reconstitution and functional immunity, resolving serious infections and cytopenias.

This study found that overexpression of antizyme in MEK-activated transgenic mice reduced skin tumor development and restored normal differentiation of keratinocyte progenitor cells, highlighting the role of polyamines in keratinocyte biology.

This study found that the cytoplasmic dynein component Dynlt3 is essential for effective melanosome transport and transfer in mouse melanocytes, linking melanosome positioning and acidity to the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

In this study, researchers observed that nestin-expressing cells in mice can differentiate into blood-vessel-like and nerve-like structures within human melanoma tumors, while bevacizumab treatment altered the origin of these structures to trans-differentiated melanoma cells without significantly impacting tumor growth.

This study reported that a three-dimensional hydrogel culture system supports the growth and maintenance of distinct dermal papilla cell types, crucial for skin reconstitution assays in neonatal mice.

This study found that mitochondrial fusion regulator Opa1 is crucial for maintaining melanocyte stem cells during the hair follicle cycle in mice, with Opa1 deficiency leading to impaired SCF-KIT signaling, reduced melanocyte populations, and early hair graying.

In this study, K19-lacZ transgenic mice exhibited epithelial-specific reporter gene expression in tissues such as the pancreas and stomach, suggesting the K19 promoter is a valuable tool for studying epithelial cell biology.

This study found that increased mRNA expression of the Ectodysplasin-A2-Receptor, observed across multiple species and tissues, may exacerbate inflammation during aging, suggesting potential benefits of blocking EDA2R/EDA-A2 signaling.

This study found that the LEF-1 binding site acts as an enhancer element for the wool keratin intermediate filament gene promoter in hair follicle cortex, with specificity regulated by additional factors.

This study found that ILK/ELMO2 complexes in epidermal keratinocytes are selectively activated by epidermal growth factor to induce cell migration, unlike with other growth factors.

This study identified a 582-bp deletion upstream of LHX2 in cashmere goats, likely linked to hair follicle development and cashmere production, providing insights into genetic factors in cashmere trait selection.
