540-570 / 1000+ resultsresearch 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 De novo assembly and characterization of skin transcriptome using RNAseq in sheep (Ovis aries)

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 Hair today, gone tomorrow: the degradation and conservation of archaeological hair fibers
Acidic sandy clay damages archaeological hair the most, while dry conditions preserve but make it brittle; silicone oil can help keep the hair flexible.
research Study on the expression patterns of inner root sheath-specific genes in Tan sheep hair follicle during different developmental stages
IRS-specific genes in Tan sheep hair follicles peak at birth and may affect wool crimp.

George Ernest Rogers was a notable scientist who made important discoveries about hair and wool proteins.
research Red LED light promotes hair follicle development to improve fibre quality in Su line Angora rabbit
Red LED light improves the quality of Angora rabbit wool by promoting hair growth.
research Miscellaneous Skin Diseases
Sheep can lose wool quickly due to stress, but it doesn't cause itching or pain.
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.
research Nucleation and growth of macrofibrils in trichocyte (hard-α) keratins
Sheet formation is key to macrofibril structure differences in wool.
