A protein called IL-36γ causes skin side effects from certain cancer treatments when combined with a common skin bacteria.
research The development of several organs and appendages is impaired in mice lacking Sp6
Mice without the Sp6 gene have problems developing several body parts, including hair, teeth, limbs, and lungs.
research Cutaneous Retinoic Acid Levels Determine Hair Follicle Development and Downgrowth
The right amount of retinoic acid is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research Hair follicle dermal stem cells and skin‐derived precursor cells: Exciting tools for endogenous and exogenous therapies
Hair follicle stem cells and skin cells show promise for hair and skin therapies but need more research for clinical use.
research Expression of Snail1 in the fibrotic dermis of postmenopausal frontal fibrosing alopecia: possible involvement of an epithelial-mesenchymal transition and a review of the Japanese patients

Slug (Snai2) helps regulate hair growth timing in mice.
research Study of seed hair growth in Populus tomentosa, an important character of female floral bud development
Poplar seed hairs grow from the placenta at the ovary base, with endoreduplication playing a key role in their development, and share similar cellulose synthesis processes with cotton fibers.
research The keratin proteins and genes of wool and hair.
Keratin gene regulation was emerging, with a key transcription factor found to influence hair growth and gene expression.
research Development and Maintenance of Epidermal Stem Cells in Skin Adnexa
Epidermal stem cells create and maintain skin structures like hair and nails through specific signaling pathways and vary by location and function.
research Direct cellular reprogramming enables development of viral T antigen–driven Merkel cell carcinoma in mice
Scientists made a mouse model of a serious skin cancer by changing skin cells with a virus and a specific gene, which is similar to the disease in humans.
research Role of OCT4 in the Regulation of FSH-Induced Granulosa Cells Growth in Female Mice
OCT4 helps granulosa cell growth in early-stage follicles, and FSH increases OCT4 through specific pathways.
