December 2020 in “PloS one” In this study, WNT10A was identified as a key gene in the development and maturation of skin hair follicles in fetal Inner Mongolian cashmere goats.
September 2020 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study reported the expression patterns and potential functions of long non-coding RNAs in the hair follicle cycle of yak, with insights into their sequence conservation between yak and cashmere goat.
Among Super Merino and Small-Tailed Han sheep, this study identified differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs and mRNAs linked to hair follicle growth and fiber traits, suggesting their potential roles in regulating these important wool characteristics through RNA sequencing and gene enrichment analyses.
