This study found that p53 plays a crucial role in regulating apoptosis during hair follicle regression (catagen) in mice, and its absence leads to delayed progression and altered expression of apoptosis-related markers.

This study suggests that the epigenetic marker 5-hmC may dynamically influence hair follicle bulge activation during anagen growth in mice, warranting further investigation into its role in stem cell regulation.

This study found that BMP signaling influences hair pigmentation in mice by affecting the Agouti protein and interacts with MC-1R pathways to modulate melanin production.

Krox20 is important for cell differentiation in the brain and hair follicles.

This study identified that mouse MILL1 and MILL2 are glycoproteins distinct from human MICA/B, primarily due to their association with β2-microglobulin and TAP-independent surface expression.

A new mouse mutation causes skin and hair issues, influenced by another gene.

This study found that MAP-2 is intensely expressed in the companion layer of the hair follicle, suggesting its potential importance to follicle integrity and possible involvement in some types of alopecia.

This review summarizes current research on molecular pathways, such as Wnt and Notch, that regulate feather follicle development in yellow-feathered broilers, highlighting their potential impact on poultry carcass quality and suggesting areas for future study.

This study found that engineered reconstituted skin can form morphogenetic units that promote tissue patterning and hair regeneration, with certain signaling pathways restoring this ability in adult and fetal cells.

This study demonstrated that a specific 9-kbp fragment of the bovine keratin 6 gene effectively directs tissue-specific and inducible expression in transgenic mice, suggesting potential applications for targeted gene therapy in hyperproliferative skin conditions.

This review explores the complex, context-dependent roles of tumor-secreted proteins and suggests that some proteins traditionally seen as tumor-promotive may act as tumor-suppressors in different environments, emphasizing the influence of cell fitness and treatment exposure.

This study found that a single application of TCDD on the skin of hairless mice altered epidermal differentiation, changing keratin expression patterns similarly to a known tumor promoter.

This research found that Dlx3 plays a central role in hair formation and regeneration, with its absence leading to alopecia through disrupted differentiation and signaling pathways.

This study found that the circadian clock regulates the activation and heterogeneity of hair follicle bulge stem cells, affecting tissue homeostasis and tumorigenesis risk in mouse skin.

The study found that over-expressing ornithine decarboxylase in the outer root sheath of the hair follicle in mice increases UVB-induced tumor growth and invasive squamous cell carcinoma compared to inter-follicular epidermal keratinocytes.

This study found that overexpression of miR-214 in keratinocytes inhibits hair follicle development and cycling by targeting β-catenin in the Wnt signaling pathway.

This study found that a catalytically active version of Vav2 significantly altered gene expression patterns in hair follicle stem cells in mice, with these changes varying over the animals' lifespans.

This study found that Epiprofin acts as a negative regulator of parathyroid hormone transcription, with potential implications for controlling PTH production in hyperparathyroidism.

EBF1 controls hair type and length.

This study concluded that KLF4 is a crucial regulator of hair follicle stem cell quiescence and may work by interacting with multiple transcription factors to control related genes.

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 reported that NRP2 expression in melanocytes and melanocyte stem cells is linked to migration inhibition and potentially melanoma progression, suggesting its role as a target for understanding melanoma and hair follicle biology.

In this study, researchers using a Treg-specific HuR-deficient mouse model found that the RNA-binding protein HuR is crucial for stabilizing Foxp3 mRNA, affecting Treg function and immune regulation, with HuR disruption leading to impaired Foxp3 expression and potential autoimmune dysfunction.

This study reports that in mice, CaR plays a critical role in sensing the epidermal Ca2+ gradient, influencing keratinocyte differentiation, and affecting epidermal development.

In this study, XMU-MP-1 unexpectedly reduced cell proliferation and altered cell cycle progression in a model human hair follicle, possibly due to off-target kinase inhibition.

This study found that miR-22 regulates hair loss in mice by causing premature regression of hair follicles and suggests the importance of the microRNA regulatory network in understanding hair cycling and loss.

This study found that in a mouse model of PCOS, high androgen levels caused pyroptosis in ovarian granulosa cells and increased ER stress in oocytes, reducing oocyte maturation rates, while treatment with CPA and DMF improved these rates.

This review discusses the origins of skin and esophageal cancers and reports no clinical results; it emphasizes the role of cyclooxygenase-2 in tumorigenesis and differentiation.

In this study, the authors identified a role for hair follicles in regulating the formation and sympathetic innervation of arrector pili muscles, influencing hair follicle stem cell activity and potentially explaining hair loss associated with beta-blockers and androgenic alopecia.

This review discusses historical and recent advances in understanding the embryonic organizer's role in patterning during development, including molecular pathways and future research challenges, but reports no new experimental data.
