Zinc is crucial for nutrition, especially in patients with specific health conditions, and requires careful supplementation and monitoring.
research Function and underlying mechanisms of seasonal colour moulting in mammals and birds: what keeps them changing in a warming world?
Animals that change color with the seasons mainly do so in response to daylight changes, but climate change is causing camouflage problems that may require evolutionary changes.
research The Chicken Frizzle Feather Is Due to an α-Keratin (KRT75) Mutation That Causes a Defective Rachis
A mutation in the KRT75 gene causes frizzle feathers in chickens.

Six new genetic regions linked to early hair loss also connect to Parkinson's disease and prostate cancer, possibly leading to new treatments.
research Extracellular vesicle-based drug overview: research landscape, quality control and nonclinical evaluation strategies
Extracellular vesicles show promise for treating diseases but face challenges in development and regulation.
research Non-canonical Wnt signaling promotes directed migration of intestinal stem cells to sites of injury
Non-canonical Wnt signaling helps intestinal stem cells move to injury sites for tissue repair.
research The slick hair coat locus maps to chromosome 20 in Senepol-derived cattle
The gene for slick hair in Senepol cattle is located on chromosome 20 and may involve the SRD5A2 gene.
research Mixed “Antiandrogenic” Chemicals at Low Individual Doses Produce Reproductive Tract Malformations in the Male Rat
Low doses of mixed chemicals cause permanent reproductive malformations in male rats.

research Hunting the genes in male‐pattern alopecia: how important are they, how close are we and what will they tell us?
Genes play a significant role in male-pattern baldness, and understanding them could lead to new treatments and insights into related health issues.
research 5α-Reduced glucocorticoids: a story of natural selection
Natural 5α-reduced glucocorticoids might be anti-inflammatory with fewer side effects than current options.
research Curtailing PCOS
Lifestyle changes are the main treatment for PCOS, which is a complex condition requiring early management to reduce its health impacts.
research Insulin resistance and obesity among infertile women with different polycystic ovary syndrome phenotypes
Women with PCOS are more likely to have insulin resistance and obesity, especially those with the most severe type I PCOS.
research The character “hairless” in the mouse
Hairless mice lack fur due to a genetic mutation affecting skin response, not hormone issues.
research Priming mobilization of hair follicle stem cells triggers permanent loss of regeneration after alkylating chemotherapy
Chemotherapy causes permanent hair follicle damage by triggering stem cell loss.
