Haired skin is a defining characteristic of mammals. However, some specialized regions, such as human palms, soles and ventral wrist, mouse plantar foot, are entirely hairless. Using model system, we show that the endogenous secreted Wnt inhibitor DKK2 suppresses hair follicle development permits formation hairless skin. Plantar retains all mechanistic components needed for development, genetic deletion Dkk2 fully functional follicles give rise to external hair, contain sebaceous glands stem...
