research The Chicken Frizzle Feather Is Due to an Alpha-Keratin (KRT75) Mutation That Causes a Defective Rachis
The study identified a mutation in the α-keratin gene KRT75 as the cause of the frizzle feather phenotype in chickens, characterized by a defective rachis and altered feather structure. This mutation involved a 69-bp in-frame deletion, leading to protein dysfunction and affecting keratin dimerization. The frizzle gene was transmitted in an autosomal incomplete dominant mode. Experimental approaches, including retroviral-mediated expression and misexpression studies, confirmed the mutation's impact on feather morphology, highlighting the role of α-keratins in feather development. The research suggested potential physiological effects of the mutation and emphasized the importance of genetic approaches in understanding feather morphology and evolution.

The conversation is about comparing keratin hair fibers to Gossypium Herbaceum hair fibers for diffuse hair loss. The user prefers keratin fibers for their durability and is seeking a bulk purchase option.
community Keratin microspheres - breakthrough
A gel of keratin microspheres promotes hair follicle growth, showing similar effectiveness to minoxidil in mice. The treatment activates hair growth pathways and reduces inflammation, with potential applications in drug delivery for hair-related disorders.
community Discussion: Keratin Microsphere Results
Keratin microspheres may offer additional mechanisms to combat hair loss compared to minoxidil. The process to create these microspheres is relatively simple and can be done at home with basic equipment.
community Keratin fibers helped me to combat the cosmetic effect of hair loss
Hair loss discussion includes treatments like hinoki tree oil and procyanidin b2. Experiences and effectiveness of these treatments are shared.
community Let's talk keratin products and hair loss
OP is considering using a keratin gel to improve hair quality and is concerned about its safety and visual impact on a slightly balding crown. Users discuss shampoo frequency, with some suggesting less frequent use for better hair health, but OP prefers regular shampoo and conditioner for silky hair.
