May 2019 in “Archives of Dermatological Research” This study reported that narrowband UVB treatment significantly increased WNT7B, WNT10B, and TCF7L2 gene expression in lesional skin of psoriasis patients, suggesting these genes may play a role in psoriasis pathogenesis.
November 2024 in “Genomics” This study found that exogenous melatonin enhances the development of secondary hair follicles in Cashmere goats by promoting miRNA-mRNA interactions, specifically via the chi-let-7d-5p/WNT2 axis, which suggests a mechanism for melatonin's effects on hair growth involving microRNA regulation.
April 2017 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that TLR3-mediated damage sensing can stimulate prostaglandin and Wnt pathways, potentially coordinating hair follicle regeneration in mice with large skin wounds.
