Abstract

SUMMARY The activity of keratinocytes in the hair follicle is regulated by signals from a specialized mesenchymal niche, the dermal papilla. Here, mice expressing cre recombinase in the dermal papilla were developed to probe the interaction between follicular keratinocyte populations and the dermal papilla in vivo. Inactivation of the β-catenin gene within the dermal papilla of fully developed hair follicles results in dramatically reduced proliferation of the progenitors and their immediate progeny that generate the hair shaft and, subsequently, premature induction of the destructive phase of the hair cycle (catagen). It also prevents regeneration of the cycling follicle from stem cells resident in the permanent portion of the follicle. Gene expression analysis reveals that β-catenin activity in the dermal papilla regulates at least two signaling pathways, FGF and IGF, that can mediate the inductive effects of the DP on keratinocytes. This study reveals a reciprocal signaling loop that employs Wnt/β-catenin signaling in both epithelial progenitor cells and their mesenchymal niche to govern and coordinate the interactions that are essential for the function of these two compartments.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
