This study suggests that S100A4 and S100A6 proteins may play key roles in activating stem cells for hair follicle regeneration in mice.

This research observed that the skeletal abnormalities in Noggin null mice varied based on genetic background, and identified haploinsufficiency leading to joint fusions, similar to human conditions associated with NOGGIN deficiency.

In this study, epidermal growth factor (EGF) was shown to increase the length of rat organ of Corti segments containing supernumerary hair cells, with the effect peaking at birth and independent of cell division.

This study used confocal Brillouin microscopy to observe that a decrease in tissue compressibility occurs during the development and regeneration of axolotl limbs, suggesting mechanical changes linked to regeneration stages undetectable by fluorescence microscopy.

Certain substances can help skin cells become anti-inflammatory, aiding in tissue repair.

This research concluded that Snail2's absence in myeloid progenitors promotes tumor progression in mice, and specific zinc fingers are crucial for Snail1 and Snail2's roles in establishing epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition.

This study describes various clinical phenotypes associated with FOXN1 mutations, finding that affected individuals may develop different severities of immunodeficiency based on their genetic mutations.

This study found that GFRα2 influences cell size but not survival or target innervation of Ret-positive low-threshold mechanoreceptors in mouse dorsal root ganglia, differing from its role in nonpeptidergic nociceptors.

This study identified the TALE homeodomain transcription factor Meis2 as a crucial regulator for the maturation and end-organ innervation of certain mechanoreceptors in mice, with its absence leading to altered sensory neuron structure and impaired touch sensitivity.

This study suggests that PDCD4 regulates keratinocyte proliferation and contact inhibition, playing a role in epidermal homeostasis and wound healing.

In this study, researchers found that connexin 43-negative cells in the basal layer of the epidermis could serve as markers for keratinocyte stem cells, aiding their identification and separation.

In this study, CD4+ non-haematopoietic, skin-resident stem cell-like populations were identified in both murine and human epidermis, suggesting they may serve as potential basal cell carcinoma precursors.

In a mouse model study, researchers found that mutations in Aire reduced alopecia areata frequency, while Notch4 mutations did not lead to the disease, likely due to proximity with a resistance gene.

This study found that the HS III element in the K14 gene's regulatory sequence promotes gene expression in inner root sheath keratinocytes, highlighting cooperative interactions in keratinocyte-specific gene regulation.

This study identified that Eda-A1 unexpectedly induces placode inhibitors dkk4 and lrp4, indicating the importance of tightly regulated signaling for proper ectodermal organ development.

Basonuclin is crucial for hair follicle development and cycling in mice.

This study reports that the nuclear receptor co-repressor 1 (NCoR1) inhibits cardiac hypertrophy by stabilizing the MEF2 and class II HDACs complex, potentially offering a target for new therapies.

This study suggests that nerve growth factor may support hair follicle growth in Liaoning cashmere goats through pathways involving its receptor, TrkA, particularly during the anagen phase.

In this study, researchers identified S100a4 as a critical regulator of secondary hair follicle stem cells in cashmere goats, linking its expression to follicle regeneration and differentiation pathways, which may have implications for enhancing cashmere fiber production.

This study found that the enzyme glutamine synthetase is distributed throughout the epidermis and its activity in keratinocytes is notably increased by ammonium ions, suggesting the skin serves as a reservoir for glutamine generation.

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.

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.

This study found that an inter-hair-follicle blood vessel network, originating from ND-GFP-expressing stem cells, contributes to angiogenesis in skin transplants and wound healing in ND-GFP transgenic mice.

This review discusses the molecular and functional aspects of the nude gene in skin biology, providing insights into its role and evolutionary development, but reports no new results.

This study identified two new Wnt genes, EsWnt1 and EsWnt4, in red starfish, with their expression patterns suggesting a role in wound healing and regeneration.

A feedback loop between LRH and RSL4 controls root hair growth in Arabidopsis.

This study found that Sp6 overproduction in ameloblast-lineage cells increased cell proliferation and ameloblastin expression, suggesting that Sp6 promotes amelogenesis by inhibiting follistatin gene expression.
