research Expression analysis of KAP9.2 and Hoxc13 genes during different cashmere growth stages by qRT-PCR method
KAP9.2 and Hoxc13 genes are important for cashmere growth and vary in activity during different stages.
research Generation of VEGF knock-in Cashmere goat via the CRISPR/Cas9 system
Scientists successfully edited a goat's genes to grow more and longer cashmere hair.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research The effect of melatonin implants administered from December until April, on plasma prolactin, triiodothyronine and thyroxine concentrations and on the timing of the spring moult in cashmere goats
Melatonin implants can change the seasonal prolactin levels and hair growth in adult cashmere goats but not in juveniles, and don't delay spring moult for better fiber harvesting.
research Reproduction Mechanism of SS Cross-Links in Permed Hair by the Washing after Reduction with Thioglycolic Acid
Washing permed hair after using thioglycolic acid helps reform strong bonds, making hair stronger.
research Genome-Wide Associations with Body and Fleece Weight in United States Sheep
Certain genetic markers can help predict wool production in U.S. sheep.
research Histochemical observation of the cell membrane complex of hair.
The Cell Membrane Complex in hair has both water-attracting and water-repelling layers.
research Phenotypic Correlation between Guard Hair and Down Hair in Chinese Alashan Left Banner White Cashmere Goat: A Preliminary Study
Guard hair length is positively correlated with guard hair diameter and down fiber length, but negatively correlated with variation in guard hair diameter and down fiber diameter.
research Using proteomics to compare the molecular structures of sulfide and permeate-depilated sheepskins
The conclusion is that using bovine milk permeate to remove wool from sheepskins is eco-friendly and results in smoother, higher quality leather compared to traditional sulfide methods.
research Action of Nucleophilic Reagents on Hair Keratin
Nucleophilic reagents break down hair keratin, forming more lanthionine and lysinoalanine than in wool.
research Physical characterization of the hair of Mexican women
Mexican women's hair is between Asian and Caucasian hair in thickness and shape, with varied strength and some damage.
research Variation and Heritability in Hair Diameter and Curvature in an Australian Twin Sample
Hair diameter and curvature are mostly determined by genetics.
research Internal structure changes in bleached black human hair resulting from chemical treatments: A Raman spectroscopic investigation
Chemical treatments on bleached black hair change its internal structure by breaking and reforming bonds, and treatments with hydrolyzed eggwhite protein help repair it.
research Correlation Analysis of CXCL10, FOS, HOXC13, and WNT4 Gene Polymorphisms with Key Economic Traits—Initial Population Screening for Jiangnan Cashmere Goats
Certain gene variations in Jiangnan cashmere goats are linked to important traits like birth weight and fiber quality, useful for breeding.
research Polymorphism of Exon V of prolactin gene and its association with Cashmere traits in Changthangi Pashmina goats
The prolactin gene polymorphism doesn't affect cashmere quality in these goats.
research The Intermediate Filament Architecture as Determined by X-Ray Diffraction Modeling of Hard α-Keratin
Hard α-keratin in hair has a unique, nonordered structure, different from other fibers.
research Unraveling the secret life of the hair follicle: from fungi to innovative hair loss therapies
