research Promoting axonal regeneration through exosomes: An update of recent findings on exosomal PTEN and mTOR modifiers
Exosomes help nerve fibers grow by affecting specific cell signaling pathways.
research Serum-free culture of wool follicles: effects of nutrients, growth factors and hormones
Wool follicles grew fibres for 8-10 days in a serum-free culture, influenced by calcium, glucose, amino acids, and insulin.
research The Complexity of the Ovine and Caprine Keratin-Associated Protein Genes
Sheep and goat hair fibers are complex due to keratin-associated proteins, which are important for fiber properties and growth.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Mapping the accessibility of the disulfide crosslink network in the wool fiber cortex
Cysteines in wool fibers are accessible and form important disulfide bonds.
research Artificial Hair Fiber Restoration in the Treatment of Scalp Scars
Artificial hair fibers help treat scalp scars with few complications and a 20% yearly fiber fall rate.
research Selection signatures for fiber production in commercial species: A review
Genomic research can help improve the quality and production of natural fibers in animals.
research Artificial Hair Fiber Restoration in the Treatment of Scalp Scars
Artificial hair fibers help treat scalp scars with few complications and a 20% yearly fiber fall rate.
research Application of amber filler for production of novel polyamide composite fiber
Adding amber particles to polyamide fibers makes them suitable for medical textiles like compression socks.
research Variation in Ovine KRTAP13-3 and Its Association with Wool Characteristics in Chinese Tan Sheep
The KRTAP13-3 gene affects wool fibre diameter variability in Chinese Tan sheep.
research Potassium Channel Openers Increase Aortic Elastic Fiber Formation and Reverse the Genetically Determined Elastin Deficit in the BN Rat
Potassium channel openers help form elastic fibers in arteries and can treat elastin deficiency and hypertension.
research Inhibitory amino acid transmitters associated with axons in presynaptic apposition to cutaneous primary afferent axons in the cat spinal cord
Presynaptic inhibition of certain nerve fibers in cats is mainly controlled by GABA and glycine.
research Influence of feed restriction on the wool proteome: A combined iTRAQ and fiber structural study
Feed restriction in sheep leads to finer wool fibers but may reduce wool quality.
research Comparative Proteomics Indicates That Biosynthesis of Pectic Precursors Is Important for Cotton Fiber and Arabidopsis Root Hair Elongation
Pectin biosynthesis is essential for the growth of cotton fibers and Arabidopsis root hairs.
research Elucidating penetration pathways into the hair fiber using novel microscopic techniques.
The conclusion is that substances can penetrate hair fibers through multiple pathways, including both the cell membrane complex and the non-keratinous parts.
research Woolly Antics between the Sheaths
Lipase H is important for hair follicle function and shaping hair fibers.
research The mechanism of m6A methylation analysis of the transcriptome to regulate the diameter of Alpine Merino wool fiber
m6A methylation affects the thickness of Alpine Merino wool fibers.
research 689 Regional differences in scalp innervation: A pilot study of the healthy scalp
The back of the scalp has more nerve fibers than the front, which may explain why some people feel more sensitivity there.
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 Deletions in the KAP6-1 gene are associated with fiber traits in cashmere-producing goats
Certain changes in the KAP6-1 gene affect the thickness and length of cashmere goat fibers.
research Three-Dimensional Histological Structures of the Human Dermis
3D images of skin show collagen is evenly spread, but elastic fibers are fewer near hair follicles.
research Identification of the Keratin-Associated Protein 22-2 Gene in the Capra hircus and Association of Its Variation with Cashmere Traits
A new goat gene affects cashmere fiber thickness; certain variations can make the fibers coarser.
