In this study, Sox13 was identified as a novel marker for early hair follicle development and differentiation in mice, though it appears to be dispensable for overall epidermal and adnexal development.

This review discusses the role of Ysc84/SH3yl1 proteins in linking actin regulation to membrane morphology changes but reports no new experimental results.

Reflectance confocal microscopy can tell apart white dots on the scalp as either sweat gland ducts or hair follicle openings.

In this study, two novel clusters of keratin-associated protein genes on human chromosome 11 were analyzed, suggesting their products are crucial for hair formation due to preferential expression in hair roots.

This study suggests that exogenous retinoic acid can alter the morphogenesis pathway of developing skin appendages when applied during the placodal stage, leading to changes like feather formation in atypical regions of chick embryos.

This case report describes a 61-year-old Italian man with a rare, localized variant of junctional epidermolysis bullosa linked to the R795X mutation in the COL17A1 gene, highlighting the importance of precise diagnosis for effective management of rare genetic disorders.

This study describes a patient with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets (HVDRR) who, despite having a truncated vitamin D receptor, did not exhibit typical hair or skin abnormalities, suggesting possible compensation via interactions with other proteins.

This study reveals that somatosensory neurons in mouse skin exhibit structural plasticity during hair-follicle regeneration, which may temporarily impair the reliability of encoding gentle touch.

This study investigated the effects of a recombinant human collagen complex on hair growth, finding it enhanced survival and function of hair follicle stem cells and promoted hair growth in rat models, suggesting its potential for hair loss prevention and hair health maintenance.

This study found no qualitative skin differences during development between mutant hairless USP mice and BALB/c mice, except for enlarged cysts in the hairless strain.

This study found that ACKR2 plays a crucial role in reducing inflammatory skin fibrosis and promoting inflammation resolution through IFN‐β production, limiting tissue scarring.

In this study, researchers observed that knocking out KCNQ3 in mice increased firing frequencies in response to stimuli, particularly at slow mechanical indentation velocities, indicating a role in mechanosensory neuron sensitivity.

In this study, deleting the Igf1 receptor in specific skin cells of mice affected hair follicle cycling but not overall skin health, suggesting Igf1r's role in hair cycle regulation through Bmp-4 activation.

This study found that keratin-associated proteins form part of the developing exocuticle and a-layer in hair fiber cuticle cells, while cornified envelope proteins were absent.

In this study, researchers conducted additional IHC staining on equine skin sections and found that collagen type III primarily labels the extracellular matrix, while anti-PDGFR-antibody staining highlights cells with long-shaped processes mainly arranged around hair follicles.

This study used integrated single-cell chromatin and transcriptomic analyses in developing mouse skin to uncover gene networks involved in skin lineage specification and identified Mef2c+ upper fibroblasts as potential precursors to certain muscle-like structures, with cross-species findings in human skin.

This article reviews methods for examining the localization and activity of ROP GTPase, cortical microtubule organization, and F-actin dynamics in plant cell models, but reports no new experimental results.

This study suggests a connection between the unfolded protein response and upregulation of NKG2D ligands in stressed hair follicles, highlighting a potential role of PRDX5 in alopecia areata pathogenesis.

This study found that implanting isolated adult rat dermal papillae into ear cuts led to the emergence of unusually large vibrissa-type hair follicles, demonstrating their capacity to induce specific hair fiber characteristics.

This study provided new insights into the complex and heterogeneous architecture of keratin filaments, revealing their dynamic and flexible structure through cryo-electron microscopy analysis.

This case report describes a 29-year-old Japanese man with follicular mucinosis, suggesting nestin-positive, multipotent hair follicle stem cells may be involved in reticular epithelial degeneration of the outer root sheath.

This study suggests that folliculin, mutated in Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome, and its partner FNIP1 may play a role in energy and nutrient sensing through the AMPK and mTOR pathways.

In this study, the antibody A3 identified quiescent post-progenitor epithelial and mesenchymal cells in developing rat hair follicles, suggesting it may help track the differentiation of these cells.

This study found that α-MSH may suppress IFN-γ-driven upregulation of ICAM-1 in human dermal fibroblasts, suggesting potential roles for melanocortins in inflammatory skin disorders beyond collagen synthesis effects.

This study reports that a new mouse model with a CARD14 mutation successfully mimics key human PRP symptoms, and anti-IL-17A antibody significantly reduces these symptoms.

This study reported that imaging characteristics of sebaceous nevus vary significantly by age group, revealing dynamic developmental changes that can be effectively identified through dermoscopy and reflectance confocal microscopy, offering noninvasive diagnostic potential.
