research Comparative study on seasonal hair follicle cycling by analysis of the transcriptomes from cashmere and milk goats
Cashmere and milk goats have different hair growth cycles and gene expressions, which could help improve wool production.
research Skin transcriptome profiling of Changthangi goats highlights the relevance of genes involved in Pashmina production
Changthangi goats have specific genes that help produce Pashmina wool.
research Planar cell polarity effector gene Intu regulates cell fate-specific differentiation of keratinocytes through the primary cilia
Intu gene is crucial for hair follicle formation by helping keratinocytes differentiate through primary cilia.
research The Notch Intracellular Domain Has an RBPj-Independent Role during Mouse Hair Follicular Development
The Notch signaling pathway helps in mouse hair development through a noncanonical mechanism that does not rely on RBPj or transcription.
research The role of P-cadherin in skin biology and skin pathology: lessons from the hair follicle
P-cadherin is important for hair growth and health, and its problems can cause hair and skin disorders.
research Single-cell profiling reveals a potent role of quercetin in promoting hair regeneration
Quercetin significantly helps hair growth by activating hair follicles and improving blood vessel formation around them.
research Cutaneous transcriptome analysis in NIH hairless mice
Key genes linked to hair growth and cancer were identified in hairless mice.
research Transcriptome Analysis of Improved Wool Production in Skin-Specific Transgenic Sheep Overexpressing Ovine β-Catenin
Genetically modified sheep with more β-catenin grew more wool without changing the wool's length or thickness.
research Hair growth-promoting effect of recombinant human sonic hedgehog proteins
Sonic hedgehog proteins may help grow hair.
research Hairless-knockout piglets generated using the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat/CRISPR-associated-9 exhibit abnormalities in the skin and thymus
Pigs without the Hairless gene showed skin and thymus changes, useful for studying human hair disorders.
research The stem cell quiescence and niche signaling is disturbed in the hair follicle of the hairpoor mouse, an MUHH model mouse
Disrupted stem cell signals in hairpoor mice cause hair loss.
research Structure and Development of the Skin and Cutaneous Appendages
Understanding skin structure and development helps diagnose and treat skin disorders.
research Hoxc13 polyglycine repeat gain-of-function drives mammalian integument evolution by altering targeted genes and interactions
The polyG fragment in Hoxc13 protein helps evolve mammalian skin and hair by enhancing gene interactions.
research Use of genetics in the prediction of success in male pattern hair loss therapy and mechanistic studies
Genetics can help tailor treatments for male pattern hair loss, improving outcomes like stabilization or modest regrowth.
research Increasing GSH-Px Activity and Activating Wnt Pathway Promote Fine Wool Growth in FGF5-Edited Sheep
Editing the FGF5 gene in sheep increases fine wool growth.
research Molecular Mechanisms Affecting Development of Animal Fibers and Some Studies on Goats
The article concludes that understanding the molecular processes in hair follicle development can improve the quality of fibers like Angora and cashmere.
