research Crosstalk between androgen and Wnt/β-catenin leads to changes of wool density in FGF5-knockout sheep
Blocking the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to more fine wool and active hair follicles due to changes in certain cell signaling pathways.
research 924 Efficient genome editing using CRISPR/Cas9 ribonucleoprotein approach in iPS cells for recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa
Researchers fixed gene mutations causing a skin disease in stem cells, which then improved skin grafts in mice.
research Cyclic Alopecia and Abnormal Epidermal Cornification in Zdhhc13 -Deficient Mice Reveal the Importance of Palmitoylation in Hair and Skin Differentiation
The enzyme DHHC13 is essential for healthy hair and skin, and its deficiency leads to hair loss and skin problems.

Lack of functional CYLD in mice leads to early aging and cancer.
research Genetic Defects in Human Pericentrin Are Associated With Severe Insulin Resistance and Diabetes
People with PCNT mutations often develop severe insulin resistance and early-onset diabetes during childhood or adolescence.
research Human TSC2-null fibroblast-like cells induce hair follicle neogenesis and hamartoma morphogenesis
Cells from a skin condition can create new hair follicles and similar growths in mice, and a specific treatment can reduce these effects.
research 1339 Casein kinase 1 inhibition in keratinocytes enhances the migration of melanocyte precursors in the hair follicle via KitL/c-Kit signaling pathway
Blocking casein kinase 1 in skin cells can help melanocyte precursors move better, potentially helping with conditions like vitiligo or gray hair.
research Rapid Characterization of the Functional and Pharmacological Consequences of Cantú Syndrome KATPChannel Mutations in Intact Cells
Kir6.1 mutations in Cantú syndrome increase channel sensitivity and hyperpolarization, while SUR2B mutations do not.
