Hoxc13 gene affects wool length in Gansu alpine fine-wool sheep.
research Penetration of different molecular weight hydrolysed keratins into hair fibres and their effects on the physical properties of textured hair
Different sizes of keratin peptides can strengthen hair, with smaller ones possibly increasing volume and larger ones repairing damage.
research Characterisation of the Ovine KRTAP36-1 Gene in Chinese Tan Lambs and Its Impact on Selected Wool Traits
The KRTAP36-1 gene affects wool quality in Chinese Tan lambs.
research Identification of the Ovine Keratin-Associated Protein 21-1 Gene and Its Association with Variation in Wool Traits

research Androgenetic alopecia: Traditional cardiovascular risk factors, metabolic syndrome, and component traits among Nigerian adults
Hair loss in adults is linked to heart disease risk factors like unhealthy blood fats, lack of exercise, and alcohol use. It's also slightly more common in people with metabolic syndrome. As people age, hair loss gets worse. In men, severe hair loss is tied to high blood pressure and a larger waist. In women, it's tied to higher body weight. People with hair loss should be checked for unhealthy blood fats and advised to avoid alcohol and inactivity.
research Effects of different concentrations of androgens on KAP24.1 gene expression in Hetian sheep and Karakul sheep
Different androgen concentrations affect wool-related gene expression differently in Hetian and Karakul sheep breeds.
research Lipedematous alopecia: an uncommon clinicopathologic variant of nonscarring but permanent alopecia
Lipedematous alopecia causes permanent hair loss due to increased scalp fat.
research Dermpath Quiz: Which alopecia does the patient have?
