This study demonstrated that 5-azacytidine treatment may reduce TSC lesion-related hair follicles in mice, suggesting chromatin remodeling agents could be effective for tuberous sclerosis cutaneous lesions lacking tuberin.

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.

This study found that human TMEM2 does not function as a hyaluronidase but is involved in regulating hyaluronan metabolism.

This study found that activating CXCR2 on ras-transformed keratinocytes promotes migration and tumor development in a mouse skin model.

This study found that overexpression of PKCα in mouse epidermis increases expression of specific proinflammatory mediators and induces inflammation but does not significantly affect epidermal differentiation, proliferation, or tumor promotion with TPA.

In this study, researchers found that the histone demethylase UTX is crucial for regulating skin differentiation through retinoic acid signaling, mainly impacting females, as males compensate with a Y-linked paralog.

In a keratinocyte-specific knockout mouse model, this study found that deleting GRK2 disrupted hair follicle homeostasis, causing cyst-like structures, abnormal growth patterns, and eventual hair loss, suggesting potential links to immune-mediated alopecias.

This study successfully established Tsc2-deficient embryonic stem cells from Eker rats and found these cells have distinct gene expression compared to non-mutant cells, which could help identify new therapeutic targets for TSC-related pathogenesis.

This study found that TET2 plays a tumor-suppressive role in preventing squamous cell carcinomas by regulating 5-hydroxymethylcytosine levels, suggesting therapeutic potential for DNA methylation dynamics.

This study found that the tetracycline-regulated transcription system effectively controls conditional gene expression in the mouse epidermis, allowing suppression and activation of specific genes with doxycycline.

In this study, researchers found that BST2 expression is significantly upregulated in skin sections of mice with alopecia areata, implicating BST2's role in the disease pathogenesis through the action of epidermal γδ T cells and macrophages.

This study observed that in human scalp hair follicles, BTNL2 expression is lower in stressed conditions, which correlates with increased cytotoxic activity by gamma/delta and CD8+ T cells, suggesting a possible role for BTNL2 in controlling immune responses relevant to alopecia areata.

This study found that selective deletion of PIKFyve kinase using a PF4 promoter in mice led to defective platelet lysosome biogenesis and a prothrombotic effect, with unexpected macrophage infiltration in multiple organs.

This study found that the absence of Ctip2 in epidermal keratinocytes led to impaired wound healing in mice, affecting cell migration, proliferation, and hair follicle stem cell maintenance.

Ets2 gene is crucial for placental development in mice.

This study found that KRTAP2 proteins predominantly express in the hair shaft cortex of humans, interact with hair keratins, and play crucial roles in hair shaft keratinization.

This study demonstrates that keratin K2 is crucial for proper keratinocyte structure and function in specific mouse skin areas, and its deficiency leads to cellular aggregates and skin abnormalities.

Certain tyrosine kinases may regulate hair growth and could help develop hair loss treatments.

This study suggests that KRTAP2-3 may serve as a novel biomarker to identify cells in the polyaneuploid cancer cell state, which is linked to therapy resistance and poor prognosis in prostate cancer.

This study found that genes encoding mouse high-glycine/tyrosine proteins show distinct spatial and temporal expression patterns in hair follicles, suggesting diverse protein distribution during hair growth cycles.

This study found that mimicking the XPD point mutation in mice resulted in trichothiodystrophy-like symptoms, supporting the role of basal transcription and DNA repair defects in the disease.

This study in mice found that WWP2 facilitates odontoblast differentiation and dentin formation by targeting PTEN for degradation, thereby enhancing KLF5 activity, which may suggest its crucial role in dental development.

This study identified intramembrane proteolysis as a key feature of Astrotactin2 maturation, providing insights into its role in planar cell polarity hair patterning.

In this study, researchers identified CENPV as a new CYLD interacting partner that localizes to primary cilia and regulates acetylated tubulin levels, offering insights into the pathogenesis of skin appendage tumors.

In this study, researchers observed elevated levels of epidermal γδ T cells, keratinocytes, and an upregulation of the BST2 gene among immune cells in C3H/HeJ mice with alopecia areata, suggesting a potential role in disease pathogenesis.

This study found that the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2, particularly its component Ezh2, is crucial in regulating dermal fibroblast differentiation and epidermal keratinocyte proliferation during murine skin development.

This study identified a new type II cytokeratin, named K6hf, exclusively expressed in the companion layer of the human hair follicle, distinguishing it from other keratins and suggesting a unique biochemical role.

This study found that in alopecia areata, epidermal γδ T cells and macrophages contribute to the disease alongside CD8 T cells, with the expression of BST2 marking interferon-driven immune activation in both mouse and human skin, which decreases following treatment with the JAK inhibitor tofacitinib.
