research Function and Underlying Mechanisms of Seasonal Color Molting in Mammals and Birds: What Keeps Them Changing in a Warming World?

113 citations , March 2018 in “Biological reviews/Biological reviews of the Cambridge Philosophical Society”

Animals that change color with the seasons mainly do so in response to daylight changes, but climate change is causing camouflage problems that may require evolutionary changes.

research Ancient Genomes Reveal the Evolutionary History and Origin of Cashmere-Producing Goats in China

27 citations , April 2020 in “Molecular Biology and Evolution”

Ancient Chinese goats evolved cashmere-producing traits due to selective breeding, particularly in genes affecting hair growth.

Whole-Genome Sequencing of Eight Goat Populations for the Detection of Selection Signatures Underlying Production and Adaptive Traits

research Whole-Genome Sequencing of Eight Goat Populations for the Detection of Selection Signatures Underlying Production and Adaptive Traits

92 citations , December 2016 in “Scientific Reports”

Researchers identified genes linked to coat color, body size, cashmere production, and high altitude adaptation in goats.

research Global Landscapes of Human Phenotypic Variation in Inherited Traits

1 citations , January 2017 in “Evolutionary studies”

Different human traits like skin color and hair type vary between populations due to genetic adaptations to the environment.

research Short-Term Responses of Soybean Roots to Individual and Combinatorial Effects of Elevated CO2 and Water Deficit

16 citations , December 2018 in “Plant Science”

community Why do we have head hair in first place if we evolved to start losing it in some cases as soon as puberty hits

in Chat 139 upvotes 1 week ago

Hair loss is influenced by genetics and sensitivity to hormones like DHT. Treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used, and baldness persists as it doesn't affect reproductive success.

community Why is human evolution like this 😂

in Chat 3 years ago

Why androgenic alopecia affects the scalp rather than other body parts, potential explanations for this phenomenon, treatments available to combat hair loss, and the implications of male attractiveness in modern society.

community Fats on your Head to Stop Hair Loss?

in Research/Science 140 upvotes 1 year ago

The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.

community Why balding gets worse in every generation?

in Chat 81 upvotes 1 year ago

Balding seems to worsen with each generation, possibly due to stress, diet, and environmental factors. The user started treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride.

community Cardio for more than 60 minutes reduces DHT levels and improve hair growth

in Research/Science 126 upvotes 7 months ago

Long aerobic exercise (over 60 minutes) can reduce DHT levels and improve hair health. Some users discuss using Tadalafil (Cialis) to further reduce DHT after exercise, while others mention using treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841 for hair growth.
