research Wnt signaling in skin organogenesis
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.
research Splitting Hairs
β-catenin affects hair growth and can lead to tumors, needing more research for better understanding.
research Evo Devo of the Vertebrates Integument
The skin systems of jawed vertebrates evolved diverse appendages like hair and scales from a common structure over 420 million years ago.
research Evolution of Trichocyte Keratins
Hair keratins evolved from ancient proteins, diversifying through gene changes, crucial for forming claws and later hair in mammals.
research Organizational principles of integumentary organs: Maximizing variations for effective adaptation
Integumentary organs adapt and evolve for survival, with potential uses in regenerative medicine.
research Making Waves with Hairs
Skin patterns are formed by simple reaction-diffusion mechanisms.
research Localisation of members of the notch system and the differentiation of vibrissa hair follicles: Receptors, ligands, and fringe modulators
Notch-related genes play a key role in the development and cycling of hair follicles.
research Self‐organizing hair peg‐like structures from dissociated skin progenitor cells: New insights for human hair follicle organoid engineering and Turing patterning in an asymmetric morphogenetic field
Researchers created early-stage hair-like structures from skin cells, showing how these cells can self-organize, but more is needed for complete hair growth.
research Conditional Disruption of Hedgehog Signaling Pathway Defines its Critical Role in Hair Development and Regeneration
The hedgehog signaling pathway is crucial for hair growth but not for the initial creation of hair follicles.
