Abstract

Avigad Laron et al. show that the mesenchymal niche of the hair follicle, the dermal papilla (DP), regulates bulge stem cell properties during quiescence and regeneration. While the DP initiates regeneration by downregulating bulge-dependent inhibitory effects, it coordinates the progression of regeneration by an autoregulatory circuit that controls Shh expression in adjacent progenitors and Wnt signaling in DP cells.
