660-690 / 1000+ results research The mouse hairy ears mutation exhibits an extended growth (anagen) phase in hair follicles and altered Hoxc gene expression in the ears
The mouse hairy ears mutation causes longer ear hair due to changes in gene expression.
research Is alopecia reversible after childbirth?
Hair loss after childbirth usually reverses in a few months.
research Improved fetal hair follicle development by maternal supplement of selenium at nano size (Nano-Se)
Maternal Nano-Se supplements improve fetal hair follicle development in cashmere goats.
research Testing the impact of trait prevalence priors in Bayesian-based genetic prediction modeling of human appearance traits
Using trait prevalence priors in genetic prediction models for appearance traits is currently impractical due to limited knowledge and potential accuracy issues.
research Serenoa repens as an Endocrine Disruptor in a 10-Year-Old Young Girl: A New Case Report
Serenoa repens may cause early puberty and should be used cautiously in children.
research Cashmere growth control in Liaoning cashmere goat by ovarian carcinoma immunoreactive antigen-like protein 2 and decorin genes
OCIAD2 and DCN genes affect hair growth in goats by having opposite effects on a growth signaling pathway and inhibiting each other.
research An experimental study evaluating the effect of minoxidil on the growth cycle of hair follicles.
Minoxidil did not affect hair growth in newborn mice.
research Studies on Expression Characteristics of EGF and Development Characteristics of Hair Follicle of Gray Goat
EGF helps secondary hair follicles grow in young gray goats.
research Impact of different mating and surgical protocols on the establishment of a mouse model for fetal scarless skin healing
The improved surgical method increases success and reduces fetal loss in fetal mouse models for scarless skin healing.
research Studies on ‘zinc deficiency syndrome’ in Black Bengal goats (Capra hircus) fed with fodder (Andropogon gayanus) grown on soil treated with an excess of calcium and phosphorus fertilizer
research Cell Cycle Regulation and Regeneration
Mice that can regenerate tissue have cells that pause in the cell cycle, which is important for healing, similar to axolotls.
research Integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analysis reveals molecular mechanisms of melatonin-regulated hair follicle growth in cashmere goats and comparative insights across goat breeds
Melatonin helps control hair growth in cashmere goats, which could improve cashmere production.
research Nipple Differentiation in Fetal Male Rats Treated with an Inhibitor of the Enzyme 5α-Reductase: Definition of a Selective Role for Dihydrotestosterone*
Blocking a specific enzyme in male rat fetuses leads to the development of nipples and feminized genitalia.
research Unraveling the Molecular Mechanism of Bider Marking Formation in Dun Mongolian Horses Through Transcriptome Sequencing
"Bider" markings in Dun Mongolian horses are caused by a complex network of genes and pathways.
research [Proteomics-based screening of differentially expressed proteins in skin of Chinese merino fine sheep (JunKen type) of different gender].
Gender affects wool traits in sheep, with males and females showing differences in skin proteins related to wool growth.
research Secondary Sexual Characteristics and Menses in Young Girls
African-American girls tend to start puberty earlier than white girls, possibly due to increased androgen production.
research Multiple cell types guided by neurocytes orchestrate horn bud initiation in dairy goats
Nerve cells and other cell types work together to start horn growth in dairy goats.
research Developmental Genetics of Color Pattern Establishment in Cats
Gene expression, especially Dkk4, is key to cat color patterns.
research Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Hairless mammals have genetic changes in both their protein-coding and regulatory sequences related to hair.
research Recurrent bacterial vaginosis and Netherton's syndrome
Netherton's syndrome can cause frequent bacterial infections beyond just skin issues.
research Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signaling Inhibits Hair Follicle Anagen Induction by Restricting Epithelial Stem/Progenitor Cell Activation and Expansion
BMP signaling prevents hair growth by stopping stem cell activation.
research Unravelling the Red Beard--Dark Hair Dyad
Dark hair with a red beard likely evolved for camouflage, not attraction.
