research Wnt/β-catenin signalling: function, biological mechanisms, and therapeutic opportunities
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway is important for body functions and diseases, and targeting it may treat conditions like cancer, but with safety challenges.
research Hoxc-Dependent Mesenchymal Niche Heterogeneity Drives Regional Hair Follicle Regeneration
Hoxc genes control hair growth through Wnt signaling.
research 766 H3K9me3 methyltransferase SETDB1 controls retrotransposon silencing, DNA methylation, constitutive heterochromatin maintenance and 3D-chromatin structure in epidermal keratinocytes
SETDB1 is essential for controlling DNA methylation, silencing retrotransposons, and maintaining skin cell health, with its absence leading to skin inflammation and hair loss.
research TR3 is preferentially expressed by bulge epithelial stem cells in human hair follicles
TR3 is mainly found in hair follicle stem cells and may be involved in hair loss.
research Insights into male androgenetic alopecia using comparative transcriptome profiling: hypoxia-inducible factor-1 and Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathways
Targeting specific genes in certain pathways may help treat male pattern baldness.
research Poly(rC) binding protein 2 acts as a negative regulator of IRES-mediated translation of Hr mRNA
A protein called PCBP2 controls the production of a hair growth protein by interacting with its genetic message and is linked to hair loss when this control is disrupted.
research Function of KLF4 in Stem Cell Biology
KLF4 is important for maintaining stem cells and has potential in cancer treatment and wound healing.
research 1616 Cross-comparison of inflammatory skin disease transcriptomics identifies PTEN as a pathogenic disease classifier in cutaneous lupus erythematosus
PTEN was identified as a specific marker for the skin disease cutaneous lupus erythematosus, and it helps increase the expression of harmful type I interferons.
research Basonuclin as a cell marker in the formation and cycling of the murine hair follicle
Basonuclin helps identify and track hair follicle development and cycling in mice.
research Stratum-Specific Expression of Human Transferrin Receptor Increases Iron in Mouse Epidermis
Transferrin receptor expression increases iron in mouse skin cells without causing damage.
research Constitutive activation of S tat3 in mouse epidermis is linked to hair deficiency and cytoskeletal network damage
Overactive Stat3 in mouse skin causes hair loss and cell structure damage.
research FOXE1, A New Transcriptional Target of GLI2 Is Expressed in Human Epidermis and Basal Cell Carcinoma
research Expression characteristics in regenerating hair follicles induced by Wnt10b
Wnt10b can help regenerate hair follicles.
research Glucocorticoid Receptor Mutants Demonstrate Increased Motility Inside the Nucleus of Living Cells: Time of Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP) Is an Integrated Measure of Receptor Function
Certain defective glucocorticoid receptor mutants move faster inside cell nuclei and work less effectively.
research Skin Transcriptome Analysis Identifies the Key Genes Underlying Fur Development in Chinese Tan Sheep in the Birth and Er-mao Periods
The FOS gene helps hair growth in Tan sheep.
research The peach RGF/GLV signalling peptide pCTG134 is involved in a regulatory circuit that sustains auxin and ethylene actions
The peach gene pCTG134 helps control the interaction between auxin and ethylene hormones during fruit ripening.
research Investigation of Transcriptional Gene Profiling in Normal Murine Hair Follicular Substructures Using Next-Generation Sequencing to Provide Potential Insights into Skin Disease
Hair follicles have a more inactive cell cycle than other skin cells, which may help develop targeted therapies for skin diseases and cancer.
research Deletion of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl 4-hydroxylase 2 in FoxD1-lineage mesenchymal cells leads to congenital truncal alopecia
Removing a specific gene in certain skin cells causes hair loss on the body by disrupting normal hair development.
research Calcineurin/Nfatc1 signaling links skin stem cell quiescence to hormonal signaling during pregnancy and lactation
Hormones during pregnancy and lactation keep skin stem cells inactive, preventing hair growth.
research Fine Mapping and Identifying the Mutation Gene of snthr -1Bao ScantHair Mouse
The scant hair in snthr-1Bao mice is likely caused by a deletion affecting the Plcd1 gene.
research Heterogeneity of neural crest-derived melanocytes
Melanocytes are diverse cells important for pigmentation and skin health, influenced by genetics and environment.
research Wnt4 is crucial for cardiac repair by regulating mesenchymal-endothelial transition via the phospho-JNK/JNK
Wnt4 is essential for heart repair and could be a target for heart disease treatment.
research Transfection of rat dermal papilla cells with a gene encoding a temperature-sensitive polyomavirus large T antigen generates cell lines retaining a differentiated phenotype
Immortalized rat dermal papilla cells can still induce hair growth.
research Effects of TGFBR1 on Proliferation of Dermal Papilla Cells in Fine-Wool Sheep
TGFBR1 slows down cell growth in fine-wool sheep hair follicles.
research 689 Cell-type-specific nascent transcriptomics through PRECISE-seq reveal molecular principles of tissue dynamics
research Abstract 1026: A non-apoptotic function for Mcl-1 as an activator of canonical Wnt signaling in keratinocytes
Mcl-1 can activate Wnt signaling in skin cells, promoting growth and possibly cancer.

Activating TLR3 may help produce retinoic acid, important for tissue regeneration.
research Growth retardation and hair loss in transgenic mice overexpressing human H-ferritin gene
Overexpressing the human H-ferritin gene in mice causes mild growth delay and temporary hair loss.
research The Negative Regulator CXXC5: Making WNT Look a Little Less Dishevelled
