In this study, researchers identified nine new sheep keratin genes, highlighting species-specific differences in the expression and compartmentalization of wool-related keratin genes compared to humans.

A new test helps find drugs to treat head and neck cancer by targeting c-Rel.

This study found that the expression levels of Siah1 and Siah2 in mice skin vary dynamically during postnatal hair follicle development, suggesting their specific roles in modulating the HIF pathway.

This study found that overexpression of the transcription factor NFIC may enhance the proliferation and differentiation of stem cells from the apical papilla, suggesting its potential role in dentin/root regeneration.

In this study on Drosophila embryos, researchers observed that the Slit/Robo signaling pathway is crucial for the collective migration and proper positioning of Posterior Signaling Center cells within the hematopoietic niche, highlighting its role in niche assembly and cellular organization.

This research found that Foxc1 promotes quiescence in hair follicle stem cells and identified COL17A1 depletion, due to DNA damage, as a cause of hair thinning and loss during aging.

This study used electron microscopy to identify a distinct dendritic cell in the human epidermis, similar to the melanocyte, with unique structural features and variable melanin content.

This study found that Hairless protein down-regulates Msx2 expression, affecting hair follicle formation in Hairpoor mice by altering the MSX2 regulatory pathway.

This study found that in adult mouse skin, somatosensory axon plasticity is highly dynamic and influenced by epithelial-neural crosstalk and intrinsic neural mechanisms.

Nephronectin is linked to worse outcomes in breast cancer and helps cancer spread.

This study found that VDAC2 promotes apoptosis in secondary hair follicle stem cells of Albas cashmere goats by activating the P53 signaling pathway, with knockdown of VDAC2 reducing apoptosis and a P53 inhibitor partially rescuing VDAC2-induced apoptosis.

This study reports two siblings with severe combined immunodeficiency due to a mutation in the FOXN1 gene, characterized by T-cell immunodeficiency, alopecia totalis, and nail dystrophy.

In vivo using the C3H mouse model, this study observed that BST2 expression occurs before hair loss in alopecia areata and is followed by an increase in epidermal γδ T cell numbers.

In this study, researchers reported that specific immunoreactivity patterns observed in hair follicle stem cell markers suggest different origins for trichilemmoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma in human skin tissues.

In this study, the researchers observed that inducing and then withdrawing β-catenin expression in a bigenic mouse model caused reversible changes in skin morphology, indicating dependence on β-catenin signaling.

This study found that as few as 90 base pairs of the K5 promoter directed keratinocyte-preferred expression in stratified epithelia, especially in epidermis, hair follicles, and tongue, showing cell type specificity.

This study suggests that Mcl-1 has a non-apoptotic role in promoting keratinocyte proliferation and Wnt/β-catenin signaling, potentially indicating a novel oncogenic activity.

This study reported that CCT oligodeoxynucleotide induced patchy hair loss in male mice with specific genetic traits, suggesting gender and genetic preferences in immune response.

In this study, researchers found that skin pigmentation alterations in a mouse model of Carney complex may be caused by specific dermal fibroblasts promoting melanogenic signaling.

This study found that epithelial cell metabolism exhibits distinct heterogeneity based on cell density, particularly during the pre-epithelial transition stage where clusters of high and low mitochondrial potential cells emerge.

This research examined the transcriptional landscape of quiescent melanocyte stem cells (qMcSCs) in adult female mice, revealing significant heterogeneity within this cell population and identifying novel subpopulations that vary in immune privilege regulation, melanocyte differentiation potential, and neural crest potential.

In this study, researchers found that mice lacking the transcription factor FOXC1 in their hair follicle stem cells had increased rounds of hair regeneration but experienced hair thinning due to impaired ability to maintain stem cell quiescence and adhesion.

In this study, researchers explored how hair follicle neural crest stem cell-derived exosomes, particularly those carrying miR-214-3p, promote neurite outgrowth and aid peripheral nerve regeneration, supported by detailed in vitro and in vivo data on nerve repair and functional recovery in rat models.

Two studies in Cell Stem Cell reported that human and mouse somatic cells can be reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells using microRNAs, eliminating the need for ectopic protein expression.

This study found that enteroendocrine cells play a key role in coordinating stem cell migration towards wounds in the Drosophila intestinal epithelium, aiding tissue repair through non-canonical Wnt signaling.
