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

Enzymes xylanase and pectinase clean wool and specialty hair fibers effectively without damage, offering an eco-friendly alternative to soap and hot water.

Certain genetic changes in the KAP22-1 gene are linked to better wool quality in Egyptian sheep.

The new method reliably identifies and measures different animal hair fibers in textiles.

Injecting melatonin improves cashmere yield by enhancing fiber growth in goats.

Researchers developed a method to identify animal fibers in textiles, which works on processed and blended materials.

Melatonin affects hair growth in cashmere goats by regulating specific microRNAs.

The CRABP I gene in cashmere goats is highly conserved but has unique features at specific amino sites.

Melatonin boosts hair growth in cashmere goats by helping certain cells multiply.

Prolactin speeds up hair growth and moulting in cashmere goats.

Chemical treatments can change the scale heights of wool and cashmere fibers, affecting their identification.

Researchers developed a method to identify and measure different animal hair fibers in textiles, successfully distinguishing materials like cashmere from cheaper fibers.

Scientists made antibodies to tell cashmere and wool apart, which could improve how we identify animal fibers.

Animal hair fibers like wool and mohair are strong when dry, but vicuna fibers are very brittle.

Otter rabbit, mink, and blue fox fur can be identified by their unique hair structures.

Melatonin shortens the hair growth cycle by increasing PDGFA gene expression.

Constant-release melatonin reduces SOX21 gene expression in goats during the hair follicle resting phase.

Improving knowledge and practices in animal fibre production is crucial to meet market demands and potentially revive natural fibres.

Different forms of FGF5 either promote or inhibit hair growth.

The document discusses how traditional Chinese medicine extracts may affect hair growth in animals but lacks detailed results.

The telogen phase of hair growth is active and important for preparing hair follicles for regeneration, not just a resting stage.

The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.

Environmental factors at different levels control hair stem cell activity, which could lead to new hair growth and alopecia treatments.

Melatonin and mitotane treatment led to hair re-growth in 62% of dogs with Alopecia X, but this was not always linked to normal hormone levels.

Different hair protein amounts change the strength of keratin/chitosan gels, useful for making predictable tissue engineering materials.

Mutations in the WNT10A gene can cause skin, hair, teeth, and other disorders, and may also affect other areas like kidney and cancer, with potential for targeted treatments.

The article concludes that the global hair trade is exploitative and reflects complex cultural and economic issues.

New compounds were found to help increase hair growth and decrease hair loss.

The model showed that randomness accurately describes individual hair growth cycles and that synchronization can cause large fluctuations not seen in humans.

New treatments for hair loss may target specific pathways and generate new hair follicles.
