a Diagram depicting the anatomical locations tested in Ctrl and Med1 cKO incisors. CL, cervical loop; Sec, secretory stage; Mat, maturation stage. b Heatmap showing differential gene expressions for epidermal genes (left) and hair genes (right) in Med1 cKO incisors versus Ctrls at 4 weeks of age. For each gene, fold changes are compared to CL Ctrl; n = 3 for all samples and average values for each group are shown. c Top, diagram depicts sequential expression of epidermal genes (light blue) and hair genes (blue) as well as hair growth (purple) in Med1 cKO mice regarding the different anatomical locations on incisors (CL, Sec, and Mat) of Med1 cKO incisors. Bottom, pattern comparison to epidermal (orange, E15) and hair gene inductions (yellow, E18) during embryonic development of the skin.
