research Cycle pilaire et alopécie X chez le chien
Alopecia X in dogs is a cosmetic issue, not a hormonal disorder, and harmful treatments should be avoided.
research Hair is a functionally graded composite, not a uniform fiber
Hair has varying structures and properties along its length.
research The proteomics of wool follicles
Proteomics helps understand protein changes in wool fiber development.
research Scanning Electron Microscopic Study on Collagen Fibrils in the Mink Dermis during the Hair Cycle and Growth
Collagen fibrils in mink skin change structure during hair growth, becoming looser and thicker in the active phase.
research Characterisation of an Ovine Keratin Associated Protein (KAP) Gene, Which Would Produce a Protein Rich in Glycine and Tyrosine, but Lacking in Cysteine
A new sheep gene, KRTAP36-1, may help breed sheep with better wool by reducing prickle factor.
research Insights on the Hair Keratin Structure Under Different Drying Conditions
Drying hair with a microfiber towel better maintains hair strength and structure than using a cotton towel or blow-drier.
research Identification of the KAP27-1 gene in sheep and its effect on wool traits
The KRTAP27-1 gene variations in sheep may affect wool length and weight.
research Screening of circRNAs Associated with Secondary Wool Follicle Development in Fine-Wool Sheep and Construction of Their ceRNA Network
Key circRNAs play a role in wool follicle development, aiding in breeding better quality wool sheep.
research [Proteomics-based screening of differentially expressed proteins in skin of Chinese merino fine sheep (JunKen type) of different gender].
Gender affects wool traits in sheep, with males and females showing differences in skin proteins related to wool growth.
research Xenobiotica-metabolizing enzymes in the skin of rat, mouse, pig, guinea pig, man, and in human skin models
Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.
research Photobiomodulation devices for hair regrowth and wound healing: a therapy full of promise but a literature full of confusion
Photobiomodulation may help with hair growth and wound healing, but research is inconsistent and needs better quality studies.
research FINE HAIR ON AMERICAN BOVINE LEATHERS
Fine hair on bovine leathers is hard to remove, lowering leather quality and value, but can be managed with specific processing methods.
research Curl secret in cells
Hair curliness is caused by the arrangement and length of two different cell types.
research Differences between ultrastructure and protein composition in straight hair fibres
Lustre mutant sheep have normal hair structure and proteins but differ in felting properties.
research Analysis of LncRNA and mRNA Expression Profiles in Skin Tissues of Super Merino Sheep and Small-Tailed Han Sheep
Researchers found genes in sheep that may affect hair growth and wool quality.
research Exploring Variation in Ovine KRTAP19-5 and Its Effect on Fine Wool Fibre Curvature in Chinese Tan Sheep
The KRTAP19-5 gene affects wool curvature in Chinese Tan sheep, with Variant B reducing curvature.
research Structural analysis of human hair single fibres by scanning microbeam SAXS
Hair curliness is due to uneven distribution of different cortices within the hair fiber.
research Electrostatic And Dielectric Measurements For Hair Building Fibers From Dc To Microwave Frequencies
Different hair fiber brands have unique electrostatic and dielectric properties.
research Wool Fibres: Sectioning and Staining, Differentiation of Ortho and Paracortex
research Caucasian and Mediterranean Hair
Caucasian and Mediterranean hair is denser and varies in color and texture compared to African and Asian hair.
research MYC Protooncogenes of Wool and Hair Growtha
MYC protooncogenes may be important for hair growth, but more research is needed.
research Characteristic Microstructure of Curved Human Hair
Curved human hair has different structures on each side, which might cause its shape and is similar to wool.
research A Keratin Fiber Sheath
Hair fibers may have a unique, non-protein sheath not previously identified.
research Polymorphisms and association of FAT1 gene with wool quality traits in Chinese Merino sheep
The FAT1 gene and its variations can help improve wool quality in Chinese Merino sheep through selective breeding.
research Fiber-Safe Extraction of Red Mordant Dyes from Hair Fibers
Researchers developed a less damaging way to extract red dyes from wool using EDTA and DMF, preserving the fiber's strength for further analysis.
research Histomorphological studies on the skin of camel (Camelus dromedarius) [in Bangladesh]
Camel skin has typical mammalian layers, with hair follicles, glands, and muscles, varying by body area.
research Characterisation of low abundance wool proteins through novel differential extraction techniques
New techniques helped identify rare wool proteins by reducing dominant ones.
research Organization of microfibrils in keratin fibers studied by X-ray scattering
The study improved understanding of keratin fiber structure by showing consistent microfibril diameter but varying distances and electron density profiles.
research Differential expression of type I IRS keratin genes in three breeds of sheep
Sheep breeds show different keratin gene expression in the groin, linked to hair follicle density.
