December 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that manipulating Wnt/β-catenin signaling in embryonic mammary glands impacted their development, with high activity levels hindering branching and potentially redirecting cells toward hair follicle identity instead of mammary tissue.
August 2023 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that maintaining a low level of Wnt/β-catenin activity is crucial for mammary gland development, as excessive activity inhibits branching and promotes characteristics of hair follicles instead, highlighting its role in skin appendage identity decisions.
December 2021 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study reports that inhibition of Wnt/β-catenin signaling disrupts hemidesmosome organization in keratinocytes by altering the localization of components like plectin and collagen XVII.
June 2020 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that overexpression of β-catenin in bipotent Schwann-cell precursors promotes melanocyte development in limb areas by inducing MITF and repressing FoxD3, especially during a specific developmental timeframe.

October 1996 in “Science of The Total Environment” This study observed that tributyltin pollution induces imposex, reduces reproductive success, and leads to population decline in Ocinebrina aciculata, highlighting its sensitivity compared to other prosobranch species.
