research Celsr1 and Celsr2 exhibit distinct adhesive interactions and contributions to planar cell polarity
Celsr1 is crucial for skin cell alignment, while Celsr2 has little effect on this process.
research Identification of an Intronic Regulatory Element Necessary for Tissue-Specific Expression of Foxn1 in Thymic Epithelial Cells
A specific DNA region is crucial for Foxn1 gene expression in thymus cells but not in hair follicles.
research Distinct transcriptomic landscapes of cutaneous basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas
Human basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas have unique gene expression patterns not fully mirrored in mouse models.
research 1435 Dynamic morphogen-p63 chromatin interactions that guide epigenetic changes and p63 activity in surface ectoderm commitment
The study found that p63 needs signals from morphogens to help skin cells differentiate properly.
research Abstract 1835: Development of mammary hyperplasia, dysplasia, and invasive ductal carcinoma in transgenic mice expressing the 8p11 amplicon oncogene NSD3 (WHSC1L1)
Overexpressing NSD3 in mice causes breast cancer-like tumors and gland abnormalities.
research Mutations in the hair cortex keratin hHb6 cause the inherited hair disease monilethrix
research Regulatory mutations in TBX3 disrupt asymmetric hair pigmentation that underlies Dun camouflage color in horses
Mutations in TBX3 cause horses to have more even hair color instead of Dun camouflage.
research SP1 and KROX20 Regulate the Proliferation of Dermal Papilla Cells and Target the CUX1 Gene
SP1 promotes and KROX20 inhibits hair cell growth by affecting the CUX1 gene.
research Functional mapping of the mouse hairless gene promoter region
Researchers found key regions in the mouse hairless gene that control its activity in skin and brain cells, affecting hair follicle function.

New genetic mutations causing hair loss were found in a Chinese family.
research Evaluation of Keratinocyte Proliferation and Differentiation in Vitamin D Receptor Knockout Mice
Alopecia in VDR knockout mice is due to impaired hair cycle initiation, not keratinocyte issues.
research Prolactin Signaling Influences the Timing Mechanism of the Hair Follicle: Analysis of Hair Growth Cycles in Prolactin Receptor Knockout Mice
Prolactin affects when mice shed and grow hair.
research SPRY1 Deficiency in Keratinocytes Induces Follicular Melanocyte Stem Cell Migration to the Epidermis through p53/Stem Cell Factor/C-KIT Signaling
SPRY1 deficiency in skin cells causes stem cells to move to the skin surface, leading to increased pigmentation.
research Transcriptional Governance of Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence and Niche Maintenance in Long-Term Tissue Regeneration
FOXC1 is essential for keeping hair follicle stem cells inactive and maintaining their environment for healthy hair growth.
research 175 Understanding immune privilege in an inducible mouse model of primary cicatrcial alopecia
The study found that a key immune pathway protecting hair follicles is reduced in a mouse model of scarring hair loss.
research Targeted expression of spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase increases susceptibility to chemically induced skin carcinogenesis
Increasing SSAT makes skin more prone to cancer.
research Prenatal transplantation of epidermal neural crest stem cells in malformation of cortical development mouse model
EPI-NCSCs from hair follicles may help treat brain development issues in mice.
research Pmg-1 and Pmg-2 constitute a novel family of KAP genes differentially expressed during skin and mammary gland development
Pmg-1 and Pmg-2 are new genes important for skin and mammary gland development.
research Corneodesmosin gene ablation induces lethal skin-barrier disruption and hair-follicle degeneration related to desmosome dysfunction
Deleting the CDSN gene causes severe skin and hair problems, leading to death.
