Keratin 17 is important for hair and nail structure and affects pachyonychia congenita symptoms.
research The blastema and epimorphic regeneration in mammals
Mammals might fail to regenerate not because they lack the right cells, but because of how cells respond to their surroundings, and changing this environment could enhance regeneration.
research Forkhead/winged-helix transcription factor whn regulates hair keratin gene expression: Molecular analysis of theNude skin phenotype
Whn is essential for hair growth, and its malfunction causes hair loss.
research The Modulatable Stem Cell Niche: Tissue Interactions during Hair and Feather Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.
