This study shows how prepatterned tissue stiffness gradients control organ shape and size through mechanosensing and Wnt5a signaling in sweat glands.

This paper identifies a unique fracture lattice in spiny mouse skin that enables controlled tissue autotomy and regeneration.

This study shows that SIRT1 and BDNF in skin keratinocytes reduce mechanical allodynia in diabetic neuropathy by maintaining Meissner corpuscle innervation.

This study shows that neurotransmitter signaling via SLN-mediated calcium regulation determines sweat gland stem cell fate during development.
