research Integrated analysis of lncRNAs and mRNAs by RNA-Seq in secondary hair follicle development and cycling (anagen, catagen and telogen) of Jiangnan cashmere goat (Capra hircus)
lncRNAs play a key role in hair follicle development, affecting cashmere quality and yield.
research Comparative gene expression analysis of nestin-expressing hair follicle-derived cells
The study investigates the gene expression profiles of nestin-expressing hair follicle-derived cells (NHFCs) and compares them to other stem/progenitor cell systems. NHFCs show significantly higher levels of neurotrophic factors like Bdnf, Ngf, and Vegf, suggesting strong neuroprotective properties. They also exhibit a unique expression pattern of neural differentiation markers, with lower Nes and higher Tubb3 levels, indicating a tendency towards neuronal maturation. The presence of both neuronal and glial markers highlights NHFCs' distinct differentiation potential, positioning them as promising candidates for neuroregenerative therapies and regenerative medicine.
research Diagnosis, Manifestations, Laboratory Investigations, and Prognosis in Pediatric and Adult Cushing’s Disease in a Large Center in China
