Mitochondrial problems in tooth cells lead to bad enamel and dentin development in mice.
research Bubble Hair and the Usefulness of Trichoscopy
Bubble hair damage is caused by high heat from styling tools, and trichoscopy helps diagnose it.
research Ancient lineages of the keratin-associated protein (KRTAP) genes and their co-option in the evolution of the hair follicle
Some hair protein genes evolved early and were adapted for use in hair follicles.
research Transcriptome sequencing reveals the expression profiles of lncRNAs and mRNAs in goat skin tissues with different types of wool coats
The study identified key genes and pathways that influence goat wool quality and growth.
