This study reports that a sarcoptic mange outbreak, likely originating from mange-infected llamas from a governmental program, dramatically reduced vicuña and guanaco populations in San Guillermo National Park, Argentina.

In this study, researchers identified novel long non-coding RNAs related to cashmere fineness in goats, highlighting a potential regulatory network involving lncRNA XLOC_008679 and its target gene KRT35.

This study found that Cacumen platycladi extract significantly promoted hair growth and reduced dihydrotestosterone levels by inhibiting 5α-reductase activity in an androgen-sensitive mouse model.

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.

This study explored gene expression in Changthangi goats and found that higher expression of keratin-related genes and specific signaling pathways may play a role in the development of Pashmina fiber.

This study found that Hoxc13 gene expression, influenced by melatonin, was associated with hair follicle activity in Cashmere goats, with in vitro evidence suggesting effects on genes relevant to follicle development.

This study found that maternal sub-maintenance nutrition reduced the density and branching ratio of secondary wool follicles in Merino sheep fetuses and identified genes potentially involved in these processes.

This article reviews the toxic effects of mimosine in Leucaena leucocephala and discusses various methods to mitigate its toxicity but presents no new findings.

This study found that lncRNA-000133 may play a role in secondary hair follicle reconstruction and cashmere fiber growth in goats, potentially through its interaction with the methylation of its regulatory region and dermal papilla cells.

This study cataloged several long non-coding RNAs and microRNAs in cashmere goat dermal papilla cells, suggesting these non-coding RNAs may play a role in hair follicle stem cell activation and hair growth.

The researchers found that HOXC13 regulates different keratin proteins in a mixed manner, with certain SNPs impeding this regulation, while also demonstrating negative-feedback by HOXC13 and positive regulation by LEF1 and melatonin on the HOXC13 promoter.

This study found that mutations in certain keratin genes significantly affect wool traits in Chinese Merino sheep, suggesting these genes could be important for sheep breeding to improve wool quality.

This study found that 6-gingerol, a component of ginger, suppresses hair growth rather than promoting it, both in vitro and in vivo, suggesting potential use in hair removal treatments.

This study found that adrenal hormones appear to inhibit winter fur growth onset in mink and may affect the duration of inactivity between fur growth periods.

This study found that disrupting the PRL gene in mice alters the timing of hair cycling events, causing earlier molts and changes in hair characteristics, particularly affecting female mice more significantly.

This article explores how various nutrients and metabolic processes impact wool and hair follicle function in animals but reports no new experimental findings.

This study designed a 66 K SNP chip using solution hybrid selection for cashmere goats, reporting SNP call rates between 95.3% and 99.8% and demonstrating its utility in genomic analyses, suggesting potential application for other species.

Environmental factors like temperature and nutrition affect hair growth, with humans showing seasonal hair growth differences.

The study observed that Friesian heifers experienced significant adaptation challenges to Kenya's equatorial conditions, taking around 18 months for their coat composition to resemble that of Dutch heifers in summer.

This study found that α-13′-carboxychromanol significantly accelerated wound healing and improved tissue quality in a mouse model, especially when delivered with bacterial nanocellulose under diabetic conditions.

This study found that a short daily photoperiod increased crude protein digestibility, secondary hair follicle activity, and cashmere quality in Inner Mongolia white cashmere goats without harming fiber characteristics.

This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to map the cellular composition of sheep hair follicles, revealing differentiation pathways and potential molecular mechanisms for wool curvature, which may inform sheep breeding.

This review summarizes the current knowledge on polycystic ovary syndrome, including its features, diagnosis, and treatment, and highlights the need for further research to fill existing knowledge gaps.

This study observed that primary hair follicles in Liaoning Cashmere goats had broader hair bulb widths compared to secondary follicles, with the difference diminishing during the anagen phase of hair follicle development.

This study found that melatonin combined with bromocryptine treatment in Spanish goats increased secondary hair follicle numbers and extended the cashmere growth phase during spring.

This study found that melatonin implants advanced the timing of the spring moult and increased hair follicle activity in adult cashmere goats, but had no significant effects on juvenile goats.

This study found that maternal melatonin supplementation improved fur quality in Rex rabbit offspring by increasing hair follicle density and altering melatonin receptor gene expression in several organs.

This abstract discusses the challenges faced by the wool industry in Baluchistan, Pakistan, highlighting the need for improved education and technical resources for wool shearing and processing, but reports no new research results.

This review discusses various patent articles on microemulsion carriers in drug delivery systems and reports no new empirical findings.

This study observed that amino acid uptake into wool follicles varies significantly, with cysteine showing the highest uptake rate, suggesting specialized transport systems that may influence wool growth.
