This study identified a mutant in Arabidopsis with shorter root hairs due to early growth cessation, implicating the IRE gene in regulating root hair growth duration.

This study found that citrullinated proteins, which are implicated in rheumatoid arthritis, were abundant in outer membrane vesicles from Porphyromonas gingivalis but nearly absent in mutants, validating their approach to citrullinated peptide identification.

IL-1 receptor absence in mice leads to skin cysts and changes in immune response after UVB exposure.

This study found that transgenic cashmere goats overexpressing thymosin beta-4 have a higher secondary to primary hair follicle ratio, suggesting potential for increased cashmere yield.

This study observed that extracellular ATP (eATP) levels outside Arabidopsis root cells vary inversely with the expression of AtAPY1 and AtAPY2 apyrases, suggesting these enzymes regulate eATP concentrations crucial for root growth.

In this study, researchers identified a temperature-sensitive mutation in the FERONIA gene of plants that prevents root hair formation at elevated temperatures, highlighting its role in maintaining root hair growth and response to plant hormones.

The mutation causes hairless mice due to mislocalized and dysfunctional HR protein.

This study found that the GPRC6A-Duox1 signaling pathway influences hair cycle progression and testosterone-mediated hair loss in mice, suggesting that disruption of this pathway leads to resistance against testosterone-induced hair loss and longer anagen phase duration.

This study suggests that Sox13, although dispensable for epidermal development, serves as a marker for early hair follicle development in Sox13-LacZ knock-in mice.

In this study, researchers discovered that the HrasG12V oncogenic mutation in murine skin epithelial cells initially promotes progenitor cell renewal but later leads to a balanced differentiation, stabilizing clone growth.

In this study, researchers observed that oncogenic HrasG12V in single murine epidermal cells leads to an initial increase in progenitor cell renewal, but ultimately results in balanced cell fate choices that limit clone growth.

This study found that mice lacking the vitamin D receptor (VDR) developed skin tumors more rapidly than those with normal VDR activity, regardless of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) presence.

In this study, researchers showed that the CAP1 gene regulates root hair growth in plants by modulating cytoplasmic ammonium levels and maintaining calcium gradients, highlighting its role in ammonium homeostasis.

This study found that continuous expression of epidermal growth factor in transgenic mice prevented hair follicles from entering the catagen phase, implicating EGF as a crucial regulator in hair cycle progression.

mIGF-1 in skin cells speeds up wound healing and hair growth in mice without harmful effects.

In this study, researchers found that contrary to expectations, keratin 10 domains did not reduce cell proliferation and instead increased tumor development in genetically modified mice.

This study suggests that the COX-2 enzyme plays a role in hair follicle biology, as transgenic overexpression in mice induced hair follicle cycling disturbances and alopecia, which was mitigated by COX-2 inhibition.

This article discusses the crucial role of root hairs in water and nutrient uptake from soil and reports no new findings.

This study found that mice with a mutation in the Zdhhc13 gene exhibited increased susceptibility to skin cancer, highlighting a potential protective role of palmitoyl acyltransferase in skin carcinogenesis.

In this study, the authors observed that Staphylococcus aureus lipase gehB is crucial for bacterial penetration of hair follicles in mice, implicating lipases in inflammation and skin damage.

This study found that mice with a homozygous knockout of the Ten1 gene, developed through CRISPR-Cas9-mediated exon 3 deletion, exhibited telomere shortening and symptoms consistent with accelerated aging, such as reduced lifespan, skin changes, aplastic anemia, and cerebellar hypoplasia.

This study suggests that egfl6 expression in the pharyngeal pouches is not essential for craniofacial development in zebrafish.

This study highlights the potential of GPR30 and its selective agonists as promising therapeutic targets for treating hair loss disorders and conditions that respond to estrogen, emphasizing their role in modulating hair growth.

This study found that ING5 knockout mice are prone to developing lymphomas and severe dermatitis, suggesting ING5 plays a role in tumor suppression and stem cell maintenance in vivo.

This study suggests that vitamin D and its receptor may protect against the development of epidermal tumors following UV radiation by regulating specific cellular signaling pathways.

This study identifies six novel keratin genes from the chromosome 17q21.2 region, suggesting their association with hair follicles, while all 27 keratin genes in the domain have been characterized transcriptionally.

This study suggests that coexisting LSS and TSPEAR variants might contribute to a complex phenotype of congenital hypotrichosis and ectodermal abnormalities in a child, and highlights the need for cautious interpretation of genotype-phenotype links and the potential value of broader genetic testing.

This study found that overexpression of parathyroid hormone-related protein in mice resulted in 30–40% shorter hair due to premature transition into the catagen phase of the hair cycle.

This study suggests that ROXYs and reactive oxygen species are likely involved in the signaling pathways plants use to respond to nitrate deprivation.

This study found that serine 44 in the N-terminal head domain of keratin 17 is phosphorylated in response to various stimuli affecting skin keratinocyte growth, linking K17 up-regulation with growth and stress responses in skin epithelium.
