[miRNA in regulation of skin and hair follicle development].

Epidermal development and cyclic hair follicle regeneration are governed by well-balanced programs of gene activation and silencing. Recent researches demonstrated that the expression profiles of miRNA showed tissue-specific expression patterns in the epidermis and hair follicles and stage-specific in cyclical development of hair follicles. Furthermore, a large number of miRNAs are involved in the development of epidermis and hair follicles, pigmentation, and the cyclical development of hair follicles.
