research Laser Capture Microdissection Reveals Transcriptional Abnormalities in Alopecia Areata before, during, and after Active Hair Loss
Alopecia areata involves persistent gene abnormalities and immune activity, even in regrown hair, suggesting a risk of relapse.
research The quantification of reproductive hormones in the hair of captive adult brown bears and their application as indicators of sex and reproductive state
Measuring reproductive hormones in brown bear hair could help identify their sex and reproductive state, but better collection methods or lab techniques are needed.
research Levels of Some Mineral Elements in Alaskan Moose Hair
Moose hair mineral levels vary by season and location, indicating environmental impacts.
research ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND CONTEMPORARY HUMAN HAIR COMPOSITION AND MORPHOLOGY
Mummy hair's chemical composition may not accurately show ancient people's health due to environmental contamination.
research Studies on the persistence of estradiol benzoate and nortestosterone decanoate in hair of cattle following treatment with growth promoters, determined by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
Detecting steroid esters in cattle hair is inconsistent and influenced by sampling factors.
