In this study, researchers reconstituted the face of Bayard, a historical French knight, using cranial characteristics, DNA analyses for skin, eye, and hair traits, and digital analysis of his portrait.

In this study, 20% whale oil applied to mice was observed to promote hair growth more effectively than a control or 3% minoxidil, showing increased hair follicles and thicker subcutaneous tissue.

This study discovered that lambs with coarse, ancestral-like wool in a population of modern fine wool sheep exhibited overexpression of the SOSTDC1 gene, linked to epigenetic changes, which helps understand the development and diversification of wool types in sheep breeding.

In this study using female mice, researchers observed that topical application of 20% whale oil was more effective in promoting hair growth compared to a standard 3% minoxidil solution, with additional findings suggesting reduced stress- and inflammation-related responses with whale oil.

This study found that DNA is present at low levels in human hair shafts, with higher amounts near the root, and that its levels decrease after surfactant washing and colorant treatments.

This study found that maternal early-pregnancy serum ferritin concentrations were associated with lower DNA methylation levels at specific CpG sites in cord blood, with some associations persisting into childhood.

This study suggests an association between DNA methylation changes in hair follicles and inherited color dilution in Rex rabbits, contributing to a deeper understanding of epigenetic influences on rabbit pigmentation.

This study found that inherited color dilution in Rex rabbit hair follicles is associated with DNA methylation changes, contributing to understanding the epigenetic regulation of rabbit pigmentation.

This study identified novel mitochondrial DNA variations in PCOS patients from Pakistan, which may serve as genetic predisposition markers, highlighting especially the potential pathogenicity of frameshift mutations in the MT-ND2 gene.

This article describes standard methods for studying DNA methylation dynamics in mouse skin and hair follicle stem cells but presents no new research findings.

This study found that hair dyes significantly affect DNA sequence analysis, with the organic extraction method performing better on hair shafts and the prepFiler kit yielding higher success for follicle-included samples.

This review found an increasing trend in research on sperm DNA fragmentation over the past 20 years, especially focusing on lifestyle factors, asthenozoospermia, and varicocele, with the TUNEL technique as a predominant method.

The researchers reported that certain physical characteristics of hair shafts, such as length and color, may influence mtDNA read counts and degradation state when analyzed by massively parallel sequencing.

This study found that in people with leprosy sequelae, ulcers on the lower limbs exhibited decreased microbial diversity and reduced abundance of specific bacteria compared to normal skin, with skin metabolites closely linked to these microbial changes.

This review reports an increasing trend in sperm DNA fragmentation research over the past 20 years, with a focus on lifestyle, asthenozoospermia, and varicocele, and highlights the TUNEL technique as widely used.

In this study, decreased expression of BMP2 and ephrin A3 and increased NT-4 gene expression were observed in dermal papilla cells from androgenic alopecia-affected skin, suggesting potential roles in hair growth regulation.

This study found that the green alga Botryococcus terribilis and its novel compounds significantly promoted hair growth marker gene expression in hair follicle dermal papilla cells without cytotoxic effects.

This study presents a DNA-analytical method that can reliably identify and differentiate cashmere, fine wool, yak, and camel hair fibers in both untreated and processed samples.

This study reports that the completeness of DNA degradation in hair during cornification varies among individuals and affects the success rates of forensic hair DNA analysis.

This study found that stage-specific epigenetic changes, particularly involving the gene PDGFC, may affect wool fiber development in Zhongwei goats, potentially serving as a biomarker for fur goat selection.

This study in cashmere goats found that DNA methylation levels were lower during hair follicle differentiation compared to induction, suggesting it plays a critical role in gene regulation for hair morphogenesis.

In this study, researchers analyzed spaceflight data from various sources and found that skin issues during spaceflight are linked to DNA damage, mitochondrial dysregulation, and gene alterations, while also highlighting the skin's adaptability post-flight.

Changes in genes FGA, VWF, and ACTG1 may contribute to pemphigus vulgaris.

This article reviews the rationale and science behind forensic hair examinations and discusses the role of microscopic and DNA techniques in differentiating hair sources but reports no new findings.

This study identified specific genes involved in radiation-induced fibrosis in skin, capsule, and muscle tissues of breast cancer patients, offering insights that may help improve mitigation strategies for these side effects.

This study found that spaceflight may induce skin health risks in astronauts by causing DNA damage and mitochondrial dysregulation, while also identifying gene expression changes that help re-adaptation after returning to Earth.

This study found that rash in SLE patients is prevalent and associated with more severe disease indicators, including certain clinical manifestations and serological abnormalities.

This article discusses the use of forensic DNA phenotyping to infer physical characteristics from biological samples without a reference sample, aiding investigations but raising ethical and legal concerns.

This study identified aging-related epigenetic and transcriptomic biomarkers and suggested that curcumin might target and inhibit the JUN gene, implicating potential therapeutic strategies against aging.

This study observed that hirsute females displayed increased S-phase hair bulb cells and decreased G0/1-phase cells compared to healthy females, with a strong correlation between S-phase percentages and DHEA-S levels.
