Transient activation of beta-catenin signaling in cutaneous keratinocytes is sufficient to trigger the active growth of hair cycle un mice
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on hair follicle growth and differentiation. The authors suggest that Wnt or beta-catenin signal which operates on hair follicle precursor cells is a proximal signal for the telogen-anagen transition.

Gamma-catenin is regulated by the APC tumor suppressor and its oncogenic activity is distinct from that of beta-catenin
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on the beta- and gamma-catenin that are vertebrate homologs of Drosophila armadilo. The results indicate that gamma-catenin functions as an oncogene.
