In this study, researchers found that ligand homodimerization controls the receptor binding specificity of the FGF9 subfamily, preventing off-target activation of FGFR "b" isoforms.

This study found that lymphatic vessels promote hair follicle growth in mice and may represent new therapeutic targets for hair loss conditions.

This study suggests that the protease HAT-L4 plays a significant role in maintaining epidermal barrier function to prevent body fluid loss, as its absence in mice led to increased fluid loss and higher mortality.

This study found that higher levels of the protein Flii were associated with enhanced hair follicle regeneration and longer hair fibers in a mouse model.

This study suggests that ovarian cycle-related progesterone and neurosteroids regulate α2-subunit expression of GABA-A receptors in the hippocampus through a pathway independent of progesterone receptors, potentially affecting brain conditions linked to the menstrual cycle.

This study found that disrupting the PRL gene in mice alters the timing of hair cycling events, causing earlier molts and changes in hair characteristics, particularly affecting female mice more significantly.

This study found that FGF5-/- rabbits exhibited a significant long hair phenotype by prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting FGF5 acts as a negative regulator of hair growth.

This study demonstrates that Rac1 activity is essential for normal hair follicle formation but influences hair structure and pigmentation, in terminal differentiation, through alterations in hair shaft, cuticle, and pigmentation organization.

This study found that pelage abnormalities in Harlequin mutant mice are linked to severe AIF deficiency and associated with altered expression of genes related to hair structure.

In this study, overexpression of miR-29 in mice led to aging-related phenotypes and early lethality, demonstrating its significant role in driving aging processes.

This study found that AtCEPs in Arabidopsis thaliana play a role in controlling root hair growth by processing EXT proteins, with NAC1 acting to regulate their expression and influence elongation.

This study found that lateral root formation in plants in response to L. bicolor volatiles involves complex signaling processes, potentially including unknown proteins, CRKs, and ABA pathways.

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.

Activating the Eda/Edar pathway improves wound healing by enhancing hair follicle growth.

PTHrP is important for bone formation and may be targeted for osteoporosis treatment and longevity therapies.

In this study, early prenatal treatment with Minoxidil, a lysyl hydroxylase inhibitor, partly improved cardiac outflow tract septation in Tbx1 mutant mice, suggesting that inhibiting collagen cross-linking may mitigate some effects of Tbx1 mutation associated with DiGeorge syndrome.

This study found that the retromer protein AtVPS29 in Arabidopsis plants modulates gibberellin signaling by upregulating the SLY1 protein and downregulating the RGA protein, ultimately enhancing the development of the root meristematic zone.

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 male and female chicken feather morphology and color patterns can be extrinsically modified through molting and resetting the stem cell niche during regeneration.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that the expression of the oncogene SmoM2 leads to basal cell carcinoma in the ear epidermis of mice but not in the back skin, with differences in susceptibility linked to the composition of the extracellular matrix.

This study found that zebrafish with a mutation in the GDP-fucose biosynthesis gene exhibited enhanced and faster regeneration of mechanosensory hair cells, implicating the importance of this gene and Notch signalling regulation in hair cell regeneration mechanisms.

This study found that CAP1 plays a significant role in reducing ammonium toxicity in Arabidopsis thaliana by promoting shoot growth and maintaining reactive oxygen species homeostasis.

In this study, researchers created a mouse model using CRISPR/Cas9 technology to investigate hypotrichosis simplex and woolly hair, finding that Krt71-knockout mice exhibited curly hair and developed complete hair shedding without immune deficiencies, mimicking conditions seen in humans and potentially aiding future hair disorder research.

Allergic contact dermatitis may promote hair growth by activating hair follicle stem cells.

This study found that overexpressing the 14-3-3σ protein in transgenic mice reduced keratinocyte proliferation and migration, leading to thinner epidermis and fewer hair follicles due to IGF-1 pathway inhibition.

This study found that progesterone and its metabolite, allopregnanolone, provided anti-anxiety and anti-depressive effects in female mice, potentially independent of nuclear progestin receptors but requiring 5α-reduction and estradiol's influence on brain-derived neurotrophic factor.

This study reported that depleting the pro-apoptotic protein Bax in hair follicle stem cells enables these cells to kill nearby viable cells by sequestering TNFα, which increases the stem cell pool and accelerates tissue regeneration, suggesting potential implications for therapies targeting tissue repair and cancer.

This study observed that PCR-based genotyping for cre-loxP mice can lead to errors due to cre-mediated recombination in non-target tissues like tails, affecting the detection of lox alleles.

This study identified specific genetic variants as the cause of visual impairment and non-syndromic alopecia in two brothers, reinforcing the link between PDE6H variants and achromatopsia and LPAR6 variants and alopecia.

This study found that chronic ultraviolet-B exposure increased skin vascularization and wrinkle formation in mice, while overexpressing the angiogenesis inhibitor thrombospondin-1 reduced these effects, suggesting angiogenesis inhibition as a potential approach to prevent photo-damage.
