(Submitter supplied) Expression of deltaNB-cateninER allows the time and duration of B-catenin activation to be controlled precisely through the application of 4OHT. We have shown that B-catenin activation in adult mouse epidermis stimulates de novo hair follicles and the formation of a new bulge and melanocyte niche. We utilize Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430A 2.0 oligonucleotide arrays to investigate the differential regulation of RNA in skin from 7 week old female deltaNB-cateninER transgenic mice following 0, 1, or 7 days B-catenin activation in the epidermis. more...

(Submitter supplied) Mammalian epidermis consists of three self-renewing compartments: the hair follicle, sebaceous gland and interfollicular epidermis. We generated knock-in alleles of murine Lgr6, a close relative to the Lgr5 stem cell gene. Lgr6 was expressed in the earliest embryonic hair placodes. In adult hair follicles, Lgr6+ cells resided in a previously uncharacterized region directly above the follicle bulge. They expressed none of the known bulge stem cell markers. Prenatal Lgr6+ cells established the hair follicle, sebaceous gland and interfollicular epidermis. Postnatally, Lgr6+ cells generated sebaceous gland and interfollicular epidermis, while contribution to hair lineages gradually diminished with age. Adult Lgr6+ cells executed long-term wound repair, including the formation of new hair follicles. We conclude that Lgr6 marks the most primitive epidermal stem cell.

(Submitter supplied) We developed a Tet-inducible system to express deltaNp63alpha isoform under the control of keratin 5 promoter. Transgenic mice, which were Bigenic (BG) developed a severe skin phenotype with abnormal keratinocyte differentiation and defects in hair follicle development and cycling. Skin samples from transgenic animals and wild type animals were analyzed for global transcriptome changes.

(Submitter supplied) Hair follicle formation depends on reciprocal epidermal-dermal interactions and occurs during skin development, but not in adult life. This suggests that the properties of dermal fibroblasts change during postnatal development. To examine this, we used a PdgfraEGFP mouse line to isolate GFP-positive fibroblasts from neonatal skin, adult telogen and anagen skin and adult skin in which ectopic hair follicles had been induced (EF skin) by transgenic epidermal activation of beta-catenin. more...

(Submitter supplied) The vitamin D receptor (VDR) regulates cell proliferation and differentiation including epidermal keratinocytes by modulating transcription of its target genes. We are investigating the role of VDR in epidermal stem cells and their progenies in the regeneration process of epidermis and hair in the skin. VDR null mice are utilized in which VDR is specifically deleted in keratin 14 (K14) expressing keratinocytes by Cre-lox strategy. more...

(Submitter supplied) To assess if Hedgehog (Hh) responding cells in the skin have a unique expression profile, isolated keratinocytes that express the Hh response gene Gli1 were collected by FACS and their gene expression was compared to sorted CD34-expressing cells from the middle bulge region of the hair follicle and to cells from the interfollicular epidermis (IFE) by hybridization of isolated RNA to gene expression microarrays.

(Submitter supplied) Different types of hair follicles can be found in the skin of mice. It is believed that the signals that control hair follicle differentiation arise from cells in a structure called the dermal papilla. Understanding the nature of those signals is of interest for the biology of the normal tissue. We have developed a technique for isolation of dermal cells by enzymatic digestion of intact skin. We have identified two subpopulations of cells that can be separated by FACS. more...

(Submitter supplied) The human hair follicle bulge is an important niche for keratinocyte stem cells (KSC). Elucidation of human bulge cell biology could be facilitated by analysis of global gene expression profiles and identification of unique cell surface markers. The lack of distinctive bulge morphology in human hair follicles has hampered studies of bulge cells and KSC. In this study, we determined the distribution of label-retaining cells to carefully define the human anagen bulge. more...
