research The use of polyethylenimine–DNA to topically deliver hTERT to promote hair growth
Using polyethylenimine-DNA to deliver the hTERT gene can stimulate hair growth and may be useful in treating hair loss, but there could be potential cancer risks.
research Alopecia in IL-10-deficient mouse pups is c-kit-dependent and can be triggered by iron deficiency
Hair loss in certain young mice is linked to a specific gene and can be caused by lack of iron.
research A Novel Effect for Glycine on Root System Growth of Habanero Pepper
Glycine slows main root growth but boosts root hair growth in habanero peppers.
research Immunological aspects and gender bias during respiratory viral infections including novel Coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19): A scoping review
Men are more likely to have severe respiratory viral infections like COVID-19 due to hormonal and genetic differences, while women generally have stronger immune responses.
research Single-Cell Transcriptomics Reveals the Molecular Anatomy of Sheep Hair Follicle Heterogeneity and Wool Curvature

Hibiscus petals helped control blood sugar and improve liver and pancreas health in diabetic rats.
research Transcriptomics analysis reveals molecular alterations underpinning spaceflight dermatology
Spaceflight can harm skin health by altering gene expression, affecting DNA, mitochondria, and skin barriers.
research Systemic Vasculitis with Severe Cutaneous Manifestation as a Suspected Idiosyncratic Hypersensitivity Reaction to Fenbendazole in a Cat
A cat had a rare severe reaction to fenbendazole, but recovered with treatment.
research In Ovo Injection of CHIR-99021 Promotes Feather Follicle Development via Modulating the Wnt Signaling Pathway and Transcriptome in Goose Embryos (Anser cygnoides)
Injecting CHIR-99021 into goose embryos improves feather growth by changing gene activity and energy processes.
research Wound healing mechanism in Mongolian gerbil skin
Mongolian gerbils heal wounds differently than mice, with unique protein levels and gene expression that affect skin repair.
research Urticaria pigmentosa-like skin disease in a domestic shorthair cat
A cat with severe skin issues improved with dexamethasone and cetirizine.

A specific gene mutation causes long hair in Angora rabbits.
research Three-dimensional reconstructions of mechanosensory end organs suggest a unifying mechanism underlying dynamic, light touch
Dynamic, light touch is sensed through a common mechanism involving Piezo2 channels in sensory axons.
research Techniques for the discovery and evaluation of drugs against alopecia
We need better treatments for hair loss, and while test-tube methods are helpful, they can't fully replace animal tests for evaluating new hair growth treatments.
research Intraethnic variation in steroid-5-alpha-reductase polymorphisms in prostate cancer patients: a potential factor implicated in 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor treatment
Genetic differences within ethnic groups may affect prostate cancer treatment effectiveness.
research Comparison of the effectivity of different snare types for collecting and retaining hair from Eurasian Lynx (Lynx lynx)
Wire brush snares are best for collecting Eurasian Lynx hair for DNA analysis.
