Fetal sheep develop skin nerve pathways and responses to touch and heat between 75 and 134 days of gestation.
research Accumulations of Ca/P in the core of hairs from Taklamakan desert mummies
Mummy hair from the Taklamakan desert has calcium and phosphorus inside.
research Histology, lectin histochemistry and ultrastructure of interdigital gland in crossbred sheep
The interdigital gland in crossbred sheep is similar to skin and has specialized structures for secretion.
research Effect of age and sex on fiber and follicle characteristics of an Iranian native sheep
As sheep age, their hair fibers and follicles grow larger and more organized, with no significant differences between males and females.
research A mechanism for topical cutaneous calcinosis
Epilation and DHT cause skin calcification by increasing ATP and calcium deposits.
research The accelerated aging skin in rhino‐like SHJHhr mice
The SHJH hr mice with a mutated Hr gene show signs of faster skin aging due to poor antioxidative protection.
