research Medicinal plants with traditional use: Ethnobotany in the Indian subcontinent
Indigenous herbal medicines in the Indian subcontinent have potential for drug development but need more research and standardization.
research Deciphering principles of morphogenesis from temporal and spatial patterns on the integument
The conclusion is that skin and hair patterns are formed by a mix of cell activities, molecular signals, and environmental factors.
research Identification of factors contributing to phenotypic divergence via quantitative image analyses of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with homozygous c.736T>ALIPH mutation
Different hair fiber development might explain why hair loss severity varies in patients with a specific genetic mutation, and treatments that thicken hair could help.
research How different is human hair? A critical appraisal of the reported differences in global hair fibre characteristics and properties towards defining a more relevant framework for hair type classification
Human hair varies widely and should be classified by curl type rather than race.
research A Tale of Two Haplotypes: The EDA2R/AR Intergenic Region is the Most Divergent Genomic Segment between Africans and East Asians in the Human Genome
The most different genetic segment between Africans and East Asians is the EDA2R/AR region, with two main types influenced by population changes and natural selection, and linked to baldness.
research In the Empire of Images: Preface to the Tenth Anniversary Edition
Media images promote unrealistic beauty standards, affecting body image and eating disorders globally.
