research Hair follicle aging is driven by transepidermal elimination of stem cells via COL17A1 proteolysis
This research found that Foxc1 transcription factor and COL17A1 are critical in regulating quiescence and hair thinning in hair follicle stem cells, with aging-related DNA damage leading to hair loss.
research Roles of jumonji and jumonji family genes in chromatin regulation and development
This review discusses the role of jumonji family proteins in chromatin regulation and development, highlighting their involvement in transcriptional repression and histone demethylation, but reports no new experimental findings.
research The Pathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecias
This review discusses the pathogenesis and challenges in treating primary cicatricial alopecia, highlighting the need to understand immune protection collapse in hair follicle stem cells; it reports no new clinical results.
research CD34 Expression by Hair Follicle Stem Cells Is Required for Skin Tumor Development in Mice
This study found that CD34 is necessary for TPA-induced activation of hair follicle stem cells and tumor formation in mice, with CD34 knockout mice showing delayed and reduced tumor development compared to wild-types.
research Convergent Genesis of an Adult Neural Crest-Like Dermal Stem Cell from Distinct Developmental Origins
This study found that skin-derived precursor cells in mice can originate from both neural crest and somite lineages but show functional similarities regardless of their developmental origins.
research Gene expression profiling of intestinal regeneration in the sea cucumber
This study identified specific gene expression profiles during the intestinal regeneration of sea cucumbers, highlighting potential novel genes and advancing the understanding of regenerative biology in echinoderms.
research Maternal PPARγ protects nursing neonates by suppressing the production of inflammatory milk
This study found that maternal PPARγ is essential for preventing the production of inflammatory lipids in mouse milk, which can otherwise cause inflammation, alopecia, and growth retardation in nursing pups.
research Transgenic mice overexpressing protein kinase C epsilon in their epidermis exhibit reduced papilloma burden but enhanced carcinoma formation after tumor promotion.
This study found that overexpression of PKCepsilon in transgenic mice reduced papilloma development but accelerated carcinoma formation in a skin tumor promotion model.
research Neuroendocrinology of the hair follicle: principles and clinical perspectives
This article discusses the role of human hair follicles in neuroendocrinology and suggests potential new therapeutic targets by examining how neuromediators influence hair growth, pigmentation, and stem cell biology in organ cultures.
research Enhanced ectodysplasin-A receptor (EDAR) signaling alters multiple fiber characteristics to produce the East Asian hair form
This study found that a genetic variant in the EDAR gene leads to typical East Asian hair characteristics by increasing signaling output, as shown in transgenic mice experiments.
research Development of Heritable Melanoma in Transgenic Mice
This study reports that transgenic mice carrying Clone B DNA developed spontaneous melanomas likely due to an interruption in genes regulating cell growth in melanin-producing cells, offering a model for melanoma research.
research Hairless and Wnt Signaling: Allies in Epithelial Stem Cell Differentiation
This review examines the role of Hairless, a nuclear receptor corepressor, in regulating Wnt signaling during hair cycling and reports no new clinical results.
research Post-transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
This study found that the microRNA miR-22 is a key regulator of the hair cycle, influencing hair loss by promoting the transition from growth to rest phases and repressing keratinocyte differentiation.
research Promotion of Skin Carcinogenesis by Dimethylarsinic Acid in Keratin (K6)/ODC Transgenic Mice
This study found that dimethylarsinic acid significantly accelerates skin tumor development in hair follicle-targeted K6/ODC transgenic mice.
research Significance of stress keratin expression in normal and diseased epithelia
The researchers reported that stress-induced keratins in human skin are expressed at lower levels than those in healthy skin and are co-regulated with genes involved in differentiation, inflammation, and immunity, rather than replacing keratins of normal differentiation or indicating cell proliferation.
research Dynamic expression of Runx1 in skin affects hair structure
Runx1 is crucial for proper hair structure and development.
research Lymphatic vessels interact dynamically with the hair follicle stem cell niche during skin regeneration in vivo
This study found that lymphatic vessels in mice are important for hair follicle development and organization, as their depletion blocks hair growth.
research Roles of tumor suppressors in regulating tumor-associated inflammation
This review discusses the role of tumor suppressors in controlling tumor-associated inflammation and suggests that targeting this inflammation may counteract the effects of tumor suppressor loss.
research Control by a hair’s breadth: the role of microRNAs in the skin
This review summarizes the current understanding of microRNAs in skin biology, highlighting their roles in processes like wound-healing and aging, without presenting any new experimental results.
research Conversion of the Nipple to Hair-Bearing Epithelia by Lowering Bone Morphogenetic Protein Pathway Activity at the Dermal-Epidermal Interface
This study found that reducing BMP signaling in mouse nipple epithelia, achieved through Noggin overexpression, can convert them into hairy skin with pilosebaceous units.
research Comparative regenerative biology of spiny ( Acomys cahirinus) and laboratory ( Mus musculus) mouse skin
This study explored the regenerative abilities of the African spiny mouse's skin, revealing more robust wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis compared to laboratory mice and highlighting unique features of its hair and wound response.
research Mind the (Gender) Gap: Does Prolactin Exert Gender and/or Site-Specific Effects on the Human Hair Follicle?
This study suggests that prolactin has complex, gender- and location-dependent effects on human hair follicles, promoting hair growth in female frontotemporal scalp areas while inhibiting it in male occipital regions.
research Mammalian Fetal Organ Regeneration
This review discusses the unique capacity of fetal skin to heal wounds without scarring and notes that while many factors have been identified, the complete mechanism of fetal wound healing remains unclear.
research MicroRNAs in the skin: role in development, homoeostasis and regeneration
