Mouse epidermal growth factor injections in sheep affected wool growth and skin, but saline did not.
research Identification of Ovine KRTAP28-1 and Its Association with Wool Fibre Diameter
KRTAP28-1 gene can help breed sheep with finer wool.
research Crosstalk between androgen and Wnt/β-catenin leads to changes of wool density in FGF5-knockout sheep
Blocking the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to more fine wool and active hair follicles due to changes in certain cell signaling pathways.
research Screening and Expression of Keratin EST in Xinji Fine Wool Sheep
Four keratin genes are crucial for hair growth in Xinji fine wool sheep.
research Expression and distribution of EPHA4 and Ephrin A3 in Aohan fine-wool sheep skin
EPHA4 and Ephrin A3 are found in the skin of Aohan fine-wool sheep.
research A global analysis of CNVs in Chinese indigenous fine-wool sheep populations using whole-genome resequencing
The study found genetic variations in sheep that affect traits like milk production, growth, and health.
research Performance of hair, wool and hair x wool sheep fed different levels of dietary protein and reared in two different locations /
research X-rays studies of the structure of hair, wool, and related fibres. II. - The molecular structure and elastic properties of hair keratin
Stretched hair has a similar structure to natural silk, showing hair's elasticity involves reversible changes within its molecules.
research Image 2_Alteration of hair growth in mice by circulating exosomes from Xinji fine-wool and small-tailed Han sheep.png
Exosomes from small-tailed Han sheep enhance hair growth in mice.
research Image 1_Alteration of hair growth in mice by circulating exosomes from Xinji fine-wool and small-tailed Han sheep.png
Exosomes from small-tailed Han sheep can boost hair growth and thickness in mice.
research Comparative Study on Isolation and Culture Methods of Hair Follicle Stem Cells in Fine-wool Sheep
The best method to isolate and culture hair follicle stem cells in fine-wool sheep is a combination of two-step enzymatic digestion and mechanical separation.
research [Electrophoretic studies of acid mucopolysaccharides in skin, prekeratin of hair follicles and in keratoses of wool].
Chondroitin sulphate is more abundant than hyaluronic acid in skin and hair samples, except in gamma-keratosis.
research Annotation of sheep keratin intermediate filament genes and their patterns of expression
Sheep have 17 keratin genes, similar to humans, but with different expression patterns affecting wool and hair.
research Sequence, expression, and evolutionary conservation of a gene encoding a glycine/tyrosine-rich keratin-associated protein of hair.
KAP6 genes are conserved across species and active in hair follicles.
research Localization of Zinc in a Dense Fiber-Connecting Piece Fraction of Rat Sperm Tails Analogous Chemically to Hair Keratin
Most zinc in rat sperm is in the tail, linked to structures similar to hair keratin.
research Moisture sorption/desorption of protein fibres
Internal lipids in keratin fibers, like wool and hair, reduce water absorption and release.
research The Microanatomy, Cell Replication, and Keratin Gene Expression of Hair Follicles during a Photoperiod-lnduced Growth Cycle in Sheep
Changing light periods synchronized wool growth cycles in sheep.
research Molecular cloning, characterization, and expression of sheep FGF5 gene
Researchers identified a new variant of the FGF5 gene in sheep that affects hair length.
research Fractal geometry and topology abstracted from hair fibers
Hair fibers have fractal patterns with properties related to the golden mean, which may affect their functionality.
research Some Tensile Properties of Specialty Hair Fibers
Animal hair fibers like wool and mohair are strong when dry, but vicuna fibers are very brittle.
research Epidermal growth factor, but not cortisol, suppresses fibre growth in cultured follicles
Epidermal growth factor reduces hair growth, but cortisol does not.
research Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry Applied to The Identification And Quantification Of Animal Hair Fibers In Textile Products
Researchers developed a method to identify and measure different animal hair fibers in textiles, successfully distinguishing materials like cashmere from cheaper fibers.
research Miscellaneous Skin Diseases
Sheep can lose wool quickly due to stress, but it doesn't cause itching or pain.
research The sheep KAP8-2 gene, a new KAP8 family member that is absent in humans
Sheep have a unique gene, KAP8-2, that humans don't have, which may affect wool properties.
research Some electron microscope observations on hardening in the human hair follicle
The hair follicle structure is more complex than thought, with new findings on protein formation.
