Time-Course Expression Profiles of Hair Cycle-Associated Genes in Male Mini Rats after Depilation of Telogen-Phase Hairs
نویسندگان
چکیده
Jcl:WistarTGN(ARGHGEN)1Nts rat (Mini rat) is a growth hormone (GH)-deficient transgenic rat. The hair cycle in the dorsal skin of male Mini rats enters a long-lasting telogen phase after eights weeks of age, but depilation can induce a transient hair cycle again. In this study, a time-course profiling of genes expression was done on the dorsal skin of male Mini rats along the progression of depilation-induced hair cycle using DNA microarray analysis. As a result, 1,215 probe sets including 1,171 hair cycle-related ones showed more than 3-fold changes in expression compared with that in before-depilation telogen phase. The present data will contribute to elucidating the mechanisms of hair cycle regulation and should lead to the identification of novel molecular targets for hair growth and/or depilation agents.

Blockade of S100A3 activity inhibits murine hair growth.
Using mouse gene expression microarray analysis, we obtained dynamic expression profiles of the whole genome in a depilation-induced hair growth mouse model. S100A3 expression increased during the anagen phase and returned to normal during the telogen phase. The effects of S100A3 blockade on the hair growth cycle were examined in mice after subcutaneous injection of an anti-mouse S100A3 antibod...
متن کاملFGF18 signaling in the hair cycle resting phase determines radioresistance of hair follicles by arresting hair cycling
PURPOSE Telogen (resting phase) hair follicles (HFs) are more radioresistant than their anagen (growth phase) counterparts. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 18 is strongly expressed in telogen HFs to maintain the telogen phase, whereas several other FGFs exert radioprotective effects; however, the role of FGF18 in the radioresistance of HFs remains unknown. This study focused on clarifying the ro...

The visible hair shaft is composed of an outer cuticle, the cortex and, sometimes, a core of compact, keratinized cells, all of which are made of protein. Hairs that are in the anagen phase during removal are more sensitive to the various treatment modalities than hairs in the telogen phase....
متن کاملIdentification of novel telogen markers underscores that telogen is far from a quiescent hair cycle phase
In contrast to the dynamic and striking changes in hair follicle (HF) morphology during the anagen and catagen phases of the hair cycle, the telogen follicle appears static. However, it has been argued that the quiescent appearance of telogen HFs is deceptive (Davis 1962, Stenn, Paus 2001, Higgins, Westgate 2009). For example, the expression of some genes clearly peaks during telogen (Greco, Ch...
متن کاملDesmoglein 3 anchors telogen hair in the follicle.
Little is known about the function of desmosomes in the normal structure and function of hair. Therefore, it was surprising that mice without desmoglein 3 (the autoantigen in pemphigus vulgaris) not only developed mucous membrane and skin lesions like pemphigus patients, but also developed hair loss. Analysis of this phenotype indicated that hair was normal through the first growth phase ('foll...
