research Transcriptomic insights into the effects of tyrosine on sub-Columbian plumage in H line chickens
A 1.0% tyrosine diet increases melanin in chicken feathers.
research A pilot study of paternal drug exposure: the Motherisk experience
More research is needed on the safety of fathers' drug exposure before conception.
research Male pattern hair loss: Taking one for the team: The selfless gene
Male pattern hair loss may have evolved to promote younger fathers for offspring health and survival, encouraging monogamy and paternal nurturing.
research Reptile scale paradigm: Evo-Devo, pattern formation and regeneration
Reptile scales help us understand the evolution of skin features like hair and feathers.
research Transient agonism of the sonic hedgehog pathway triggers a permanent transition of skin appendage fate in the chicken embryo
Activating the sonic hedgehog pathway in chicken embryos can permanently change scales to feathers.
research Animal Hair Fibers
Rabbit hair fibers are similar to wool and have a hollow center like feathers.
research Ultrastructural visualization of cross-linked protein features in epidermal appendages
Cross-linked proteins help maintain the structure of hair, feathers, and hagfish teeth.
research [Genetic expression and morphogenesis of the skin in vertebrates].
Retinoic acid can change skin structures in vertebrates, like turning scales into feathers or hair buds into glands.
research Expression of retinoic acid receptors and dermal-epidermal interactions during mouse skin morphogenesis
Retinoic acid can change skin development, like turning scales into feathers or forming glands.
research Review: Evolution and diversification of corneous beta‐proteins, the characteristic epidermal proteins of reptiles and birds
Corneous beta-proteins evolved uniquely in reptiles and birds, forming scales, claws, beaks, and feathers.
research Prevalence of Type II diabetes mellitus and insulin resistance in parents of women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Parents of women with PCOS have a higher risk of Type II diabetes and insulin resistance, especially fathers.
research Hair Loss, Insulin Resistance, and Heredity in Middle-aged Women. a Population-based Study
Hair loss in middle-aged women is often linked to insulin resistance and a family history of hair loss, particularly from their fathers.
research Splitting Hairs
β-catenin affects hair growth and can lead to tumors, needing more research for better understanding.
research The Effect of Dietary Copper and Molybdenum on Turkey Poults
Adding copper helps turkey poults grow better when molybdenum is present.
research Development of hair treatment cream by using keratin protein
The keratin-based cream effectively repaired and improved damaged hair.
research Existence of various structural zones in keratinous tissues revealed by X-ray microdiffraction
Keratinous tissues have multiple structural layers, including ordered keratin and lipid granules.
research Paternal Finasteride Treatment Can Influence the Testicular Transcriptome Profile of Male Offspring—Preliminary Study
Father's finasteride use may affect son's fertility and testicular function.
research Knismesis: the aversive facet of tickle
Light tickling can be unpleasant and may feel worse for individuals with autism.
research Wnt signaling in skin organogenesis
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.
research Combined transcriptomics and proteomics forecast analysis for potential genes regulating the Columbian plumage color in chickens
This study investigated the molecular mechanisms behind the Columbian plumage color in the "Yufen I" H line of chickens by analyzing transcriptomic and proteomic differences in feather follicles. Researchers identified 21,306 genes and 5,203 proteins, with 209 genes and 382 proteins differentially expressed between black and white striped feathers and white feathers. Key findings included the involvement of 8 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 9 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in the melanogenesis pathway, with MED23 and GNAQ playing crucial roles in melanin synthesis. The study highlighted the activation of pathways such as melanogenesis and cardiomyocyte adrenergic, and validated gene expression through qRT-PCR. The research provided insights into gene and protein variations during feather color development, offering a foundation for future breeding and functional genomics studies.
research Development and Maintenance of Epidermal Stem Cells in Skin Adnexa
Epidermal stem cells create and maintain skin structures like hair and nails through specific signaling pathways and vary by location and function.
research Organizational principles of integumentary organs: Maximizing variations for effective adaptation
Integumentary organs adapt and evolve for survival, with potential uses in regenerative medicine.
research Evo Devo of the Vertebrates Integument
The skin systems of jawed vertebrates evolved diverse appendages like hair and scales from a common structure over 420 million years ago.
research The idiosyncratic genome of Korean long-tailed chicken as a valuable genetic resource
Korean long-tailed chickens have unique genes valuable for ornamental breeding.
