This study found that hexane extracts of Nostoc verrucosum significantly inhibited melanin synthesis in melanoma cells and demonstrated antioxidant activity, suggesting potential use in developing cosmetic and functional food products.

According to this study, rice bran oil was as effective as 2% minoxidil in improving hair growth parameters, such as VEGF expression, follicle diameter, and hair length, in Wistar rats treated for 21 days, showing potential for preventing hair thinning associated with aging.

This study found that Oriental melon leaf extracts promoted hair growth in a mouse model and cultured human hair follicles, suggesting potential use as a treatment for hair loss.

This study found that rats fed diets with heated corn or peanut oil showed signs of toxicity, including liver and kidney weight increases, diarrhea, and ceased spermatogenesis, compared to those consuming fresh oils.

In this study, the identification of a novel KAP gene in sheep, named KRTAP36-1, was associated with increased prickle factor in wool, suggesting its potential as a genetic marker for breeding purposes.

This study found thousands of differentially expressed genes and proteins that may be associated with wool growth, suggesting potential gene families involved in hair growth regulation.

This study found that various plant oils can penetrate the lipid-rich cell membrane complex of hair, improving its fatigue strength by preventing flaw propagation, with greater penetration observed for oils containing shorter chain lengths and unsaturated fatty acids.

This study identified three genes in the ovine KAP13 family on chromosome 1 and found that a specific allele of KRTAP13-2 is associated with improved wool fibre diameter uniformity in Chinese Tan sheep, suggesting its potential use as a marker for enhancing wool traits.

In this study, researchers found that microRNAs in the oar-let-7 and oar-miR-200 families were significantly up-regulated during critical fetal periods of cashmere goat hair follicle development, suggesting their role in this process.

This study found that a mixture of Myrtus, Galls, and Oak extracts promoted significant hair growth in a rat model, performing as effectively as Minoxidil.

In this study, the researchers developed a new method using H2O2/TiO2/UV for extracting human hair keratins rapidly, yielding higher protein and enabling the production of keratin films with better hemostatic performance and varied wound-healing properties compared to films from traditionally extracted keratin.

This study developed an efficient method for isolating and enriching multipotent ovine hair follicle stem cells, which may aid in research on the ovine hair cycle and future wool production.

This study optimized the extraction process for abomasum protein from Tianshan red deer, identifying two proteins with anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor activities, suggesting they could be beneficial in foods and nutraceuticals.

Different oils affect hair flexibility and strength, with their impact varying on whether hair is virgin or bleached.

This review discusses the role of keratin-associated proteins in the growth and characteristics of wool and hair fibres from sheep and goats, and highlights areas for future research, but it presents no new findings.

This study found that oil extracted from Prinsepia utilis seeds is physicochemically stable and suitable for use in manufacturing ketoconazole soap, which met quality control standards and may provide a cost-effective alternative to expensive additives in cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications.

The researchers reported that the OVOL1-OVOL2 axis may play a role in hair follicle differentiation and tumorigenesis, and OVOL1 and OVOL2 are potential diagnostic markers for pilomatricoma and pilomatrix carcinoma.

This study found that TPA treatment transiently induces high levels of ODC in mouse epidermal cells, particularly around hair follicles, with localization reduced by retinoic acid or cycloheximide pretreatment.

In this study, researchers using Astral—DIA proteomics technology identified 67 differentially expressed proteins in Gansu alpine fine-wool sheep, linking proteins like keratin and MGST3 in pathways to wool fineness regulation, particularly highlighting their association with hair follicle development.

In this study, carrot seed oil applied at a 75% concentration increased hair root, shaft, and tip thickness in rats, but did not promote hair length growth.

This study found that coconut oil significantly increased the tensile strength of twisted hair fibers due to its ability to penetrate the hair core, in contrast to mineral oil.

This chapter reviews plant-based ingredients for hair oils that may improve hair health by increasing scalp blood circulation and providing external nutrients, but it reports no new results.

This study showed that keratinase pretreatment effectively reduces the time for enzymatic unhairing in bovine hides by opening channels for faster penetration, which shortens the process by over 50% and enhances leather quality.

In this study, researchers found that the FOS gene may play a significant role in promoting hair follicle development in Tan sheep between birth and the Er-mao period.

This study found that applying pet ether extract of Brassica oleracea to rats' skin promoted earlier and longer anagen phases in hair growth, outperforming 1% minoxidil.

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

This study analyzed the bioactive compound profiles of Allium longisepalum from Iran, finding unique metabolites with potential antioxidant, allelopathic, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anticarcinogenic, and hair growth-enhancing properties, revealing the plant's chemical diversity and therapeutic potential.

This paper discusses the potential benefits and preparation process of tofu made from almonds and sunflower seeds, but reports no new clinical results, and suggests further research is needed.

This review highlights the potential of valorizing vegetable waste by extracting valuable biomolecules for use in food, nutraceuticals, and energy, noting that while promising methods exist, several niche areas lack sufficient research on a global scale.
