摘      要：Hair follicle dermal sheath(DS)harbors hair follicle dermal stem cells(hfDSCs),which can be recruited to replenish DS and dermal papilla(DP).Cultured DS cells can differentiate into various cell lineages in ***,it is unclear how its plasticity is modulated in ***/β-catenin signaling plays an important role in maintaining stem cells of various lineages and is required for HF development and *** we report that activation ofβ-catenin in DS generates ectopic HF outgrowth(EF)by reprogramming HF epidermal cells and DS cells themselves,and endows DS cells with hair inducing *** homeostasis of pre-existing HFs is ***,cell-autonomous progressive skin fibrosis is prominent in dermis,where the excessive fibroblasts largely originate from *** expression analysis of purified DS cells with activatedβ-catenin revealed significantly increased expression of Bmp,Fgf,and Notch ligands and administration of Bmp,Fgf,or Notch signaling inhibitor attenuates EF *** summary,our findings advance the current knowledge of high plasticity of DS cells and provide an insight into understanding how Wnt/β-catenin signaling controls DS cell behaviors.
