This study found that the ethanol extract of Eclipta alba significantly reduced gastric lesions and enhanced gastroprotective activity in ulcer-induced rats, suggesting potent antisecretory effects potentially linked to antioxidant properties.

This study reports that KRTAP-like proteins, which resemble keratin-associated proteins found in mammals, are also present in the cornified teeth of various lamprey species, suggesting these proteins may serve similar functions in skin appendages across different vertebrates despite independent evolutionary origins.

This study suggests that Eclipta prostrata may promote hair growth in mice and human dermal papilla cells through regulating FGF-7 and mTOR signaling.

In this study, researchers observed that the KAP8-1 gene influences skin and hair follicle development and wool quality with varying expression levels in different Ovis aries crossbred varieties.

This narrative review examines the traditional uses and pharmacological properties of Eclipta alba, emphasizing its potential benefits like hepatoprotective and hair growth-promoting effects, but highlights the need for more clinical validation and a focus on preserving traditional knowledge.

In this study, researchers identified five unique sequences of the ovine KAP13-3 gene, with potential implications for wool traits due to observed amino acid changes.

This study identified genes potentially involved in hair and cashmere growth in the Laiwu black goat, highlighting specific gene expression differences between hair-growing and hairless skin.

This study reported species and demographic differences in alopecia rates among macaques, with the highest rates in pigtail macaques and noted age-related improvements in alopecia scores.

In this study, human cell models of hair follicles showed that araliadiol, a plant-derived polyacetylene compound, promotes hair growth through the p38/PPAR-γ signaling pathway, suggesting its potential as a new drug candidate for alopecia treatment.

This research observed that sheep and rabbit KAP6 genes, expressed in hair follicle cells, have high sequence similarity and indicate conservation due to evolutionary selection pressures.

In this study, oral administration of Crataegus pinnatifida extract was associated with hair growth promotion in mice by inducing anagen phase and enhancing cell signaling related to hair follicle development.

In this study, researchers found that the cornification process in the nuptial pads of Xenopus frogs involves the expression of the type II hair keratin homolog, krt59, and is regulated by the transcription factor hoxc13, showing similarities to mammalian hair evolution.

Capitate trichomes have more endoplasmic reticulum and vacuoles, while peltate trichomes have more plastids and larger subcuticular spaces.

This study concluded that the receptor-like kinase ERULUS, regulated by auxin, is crucial for modulating cell wall composition and pectin dynamics during root hair growth in Arabidopsis.

This review highlights the dual nature of Abrus precatorius as both a traditional medicine and a toxin, emphasizing its rich phytochemical profile and potential therapeutic applications, while noting the need for rigorous quality control and clinical trials to ensure safety and efficacy.

This study found that loss of the ACER1 gene in mice led to increased ceramide levels and progressive hair loss, highlighting ACER1's role in maintaining hair follicle stem cell homeostasis.

This study identified novel genetic variations in the KRTAP22-2 gene among eight sheep breeds but found no association between these genotypes and wool fibre traits, indicating possible species-specific differences compared to goats.

This study found that the Florida worm lizard has lost certain genes associated with claw development, which are present in other lizard species with claws, suggesting a link between the evolution of their limbless body and the loss of claw-related genes.

This study found that fruit extracts from certain Egyptian Sabal species demonstrated significant anti-androgenic activity and potential therapeutic effects against benign prostatic hyperplasia in rat models and cell lines.

This study suggests that reptilian claws grow differently from mammalian claws, with continuous epidermal growth rather than a proximal matrix zone for cell proliferation.

This study found that the transcription factor GLABRA 2 inhibits ethylene production, regulating root hair growth in Arabidopsis under nutrient deficiency conditions.

This study on Antirrhinum trichomes found that stickiness in A. hispanicum is due to a recessive allele and mapped it to a specific region on Chromosome 1, while baldness in A. siculum likely involves a novel hairy allele.

This study describes unique anatomical characteristics of the skin and hair structures in the silver marmoset, including features such as thin epidermis, specialized nerve end-organs, and distinctive gland compositions.

This article discusses the potential of latanoprost for treating alopecia areata, but notes that well-controlled studies are still needed to confirm its effectiveness.

This study provides evidence that five Hyp-O-GALT genes are crucial for AGP galactosylation and that AGP glycans are vital for various aspects of plant growth and development.

AGD1 is important for root hair development in Arabidopsis, working with phosphoinositide signaling and the actin cytoskeleton.

In this study, aralia continentalis extract was observed to promote hair follicle development in mice through anagen progression, with the low dose being more effective than the high dose.

This study revealed that in androgenic alopecia, the proximal attachment of the arrector pili muscle to the hair follicle is often lost or significantly reduced.

Melatonin affects when and how certain genes work during the different stages of goat hair growth.

This study found that supplementing raccoon dogs' diets with 0.25 g/kg Platycladus orientalis leaf extract improved growth performance and altered intestinal microbiota, but higher doses may have adverse effects.
