This study found that mink pelts with "singe" and "red hip" defects often exhibit split hair tips and altered cuticle structures, which may contribute to their undesired metallic sheen.

This study found that Sox9 plays a critical role in maintaining radial glial progenitor cells and regulates the timing of their generation of upper-layer cortical neurons.

This study suggests that fish oil, specifically its components EPA and DHA, play a beneficial role in promoting skin health by supporting epidermal growth and reducing proinflammatory cytokines.

This study identifies a specific cell population, PDGFRα+/Sca1+/CD34+ mesenchymal cells, which play a crucial role in regenerating hair follicles by promoting the downgrowth phase of the hair cycle, offering insights into organ morphogenesis and stem cell niches essential for adult hair regeneration.

In this study, researchers developed a novel periodate oxidation method for extracting keratin micro-units from waste hair and feathers, achieving yields of 31.28% and 20.64% respectively, enhancing the stability of oil-in-water emulsions and suggesting potential for sustainable biomaterial production.

This study reports that PADI4, an enzyme involved in posttranslational protein modifications, regulates progenitor cell transitions in hair follicle development by repressing transcription and interacting with translational and ribosomal processes.
