April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” African spiny mice can regenerate skin and hair after wounds due to specific tissue mechanics.
This study found that hair follicles across mouse skin form a heterogeneous regenerative field, with distinct cycling dynamics influenced by the balance of activator and inhibitor signals, which could inform other organ regeneration research.
This study found that hair follicles in mouse skin use common activator/inhibitor signals to maintain cyclical hair growth across different regions, with varying dynamics influenced by distinct anatomical domains.
