240-270 / 1000+ resultsresearch Developmental and evolutionary comparative analysis of a regulatory landscape in mouse and chicken
Gene regulation evolved differently in mouse and chicken skin, but remained stable in their trunks.
research Hedgehog signaling reprograms hair follicle niche fibroblasts to a hyper-activated state
Overactivating Hedgehog signaling makes hair follicle cells in mice grow hair faster and create more follicles.
research Hemiagenesis of the thyroid gland detected by coincidence—what is the clinical relevance?
THA is a rare condition with no significant clinical consequences if thyroid function is normal.

Ectodysplasin signaling is crucial for skin appendage development, requiring specific doses and durations.
research Adrenal steroid precursors exert potent androgenic action in the hamster sebaceous glands of flank organs and ears.
Certain adrenal hormones can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in hamster skin, similar to male hormones.
research Cells within the bulge region of mouse hair follicle transiently proliferate during early anagen: heterogeneity and functional differences of various hair cycles
Mouse hair follicle cells briefly grow during the early hair growth phase, showing that these cells are important for starting the hair cycle.
research The effects of sonic, desert and Indian hedgehog signalling in skin
Shh and Dhh affect skin development and can cause tumors, while Ihh does not.
research Research Progress on the Molecular Mechanism of Poultry Feather Follicle Development
Key pathways like WNT, EGF, FGF, SHH, and BMP regulate poultry feather growth, with BMP inhibiting it.
