research Patterns of desmocollin synthesis in human epithelia: immunolocalization of desmocollins 1 and 3 in special epithelia and in cultured cells.
Desmocollin 1 and 3 have distinct patterns in human tissues, with Dsc1 in specific skin and hair layers and Dsc3 in various epithelial layers.
research Patterns of expression of trichocytic and epithelial cytokeratins in mammalian tissues II. Concomitant and mutually exclusive synthesis of trichocytic and epithelial cytokeratins in diverse human and bovine tissues (hair follicle, nail bed and matrix, lingual papilla, thymic reticulum)
Trichocytic cytokeratins are found in hair, nails, tongue, and thymus cells, showing complex regulation in tissue development.
research DKK1 Mediated Inhibition of Wnt Signaling in Postnatal Mice Leads to Loss of TEC Progenitors and Thymic Degeneration
Blocking Wnt signaling in young mice causes thymus shrinkage and cell loss, but recovery is possible when the block is removed.
research Heterozygous FOXN1 Variants Cause Low TRECs and Severe T Cell Lymphopenia, Revealing a Crucial Role of FOXN1 in Supporting Early Thymopoiesis
FOXN1 gene variants cause low T cells and immune issues from birth.

research Homeostatic Control of Sebaceous Glands by Innate Lymphoid Cells Regulates Commensal Bacteria Equilibrium
Innate lymphoid cells help control skin bacteria by regulating sebaceous glands.
research RANK as a therapeutic target in cancer
RANK is a key target in breast cancer treatment due to its role in tumor growth and bone metastasis.
research Human ClinicalPhenotype Associated with FOXN1 Mutations
FOXN1 mutations cause severe immunodeficiency, hair loss, nail issues, and thymus defects.
research Transcriptional regulation of the thymus master regulator Foxn1
Foxn1 gene regulation is crucial for thymus development but not for hair growth.
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 Over-, ectopic-expression of FoxN1 at early life adversely influences lymphopoiesis (HEM3P.280)
Early over-expression of FoxN1 harms immune and skin development.
research Patients with Compound Heterozygous Mutations in Forkhead Box N1 have a Severe Immunodeficiency while Maintaining Normal Skin and Hair Development
Patients with certain FoxN1 gene mutations have severe immune issues but normal skin and hair.
