research In vitro methodology, hormonal and nutritional effects and fibre production in isolated ovine and caprine anagen hair follicles
Angora goat hair grows faster and produces more protein than cashmere goat hair, and certain hormones and nutrients positively affect hair growth and protein synthesis.
research Distribution and Localization of Hydrophobic and Ionic Chemical Groups at the Surface of Bleached Human Hair Fibers
Bleaching hair removes its protective top layer and exposes more hydrophilic groups, changing its chemical surface and affecting how it interacts with products.
research Epidermal growth factor, but not cortisol, suppresses fibre growth in cultured follicles
Epidermal growth factor reduces hair growth, but cortisol does not.
research Effect of melatonin administration to lactating cashmere goats on milk production of dams and on hair follicle development in their offspring
Melatonin increases cashmere quality in goats but reduces their milk production and doesn't affect their offspring's hair growth.
research Sequence Variation in Caprine KRTAP6-2 Affects Cashmere Fiber Diameter
Different versions of the KRTAP6-2 gene in goats can lead to thinner cashmere fibers.
research Identification and expression of the target gene SLC24A2 of oar-miR-377 and its novel SNPs effects on wool traits in sheep
