research A function for Rac1 in the terminal differentiation and pigmentation of hair
Rac1 is essential for proper hair structure and color.
research P63 targeted deletion under the FOXN1 promoter disrupts pre-and post-natal thymus development, function and maintenance as well as induces severe hair loss
Deleting the p63 gene in certain cells causes problems in thymus development and severe hair loss in mice.
research Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Hair Follicle–Specific Gene, Hacl-1
Researchers found a new gene, hacl-1, that is active in mouse hair follicles during hair growth and may be important for hair biology.
research The structure of hair and follicles of mice carrying the naked (N) gene
