research A Comparison of Transcriptomic Patterns Measured in the Skin of Chinese Fine and Coarse Wool Sheep Breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research Increased Frequency of the DI Genotype of the Angiotensin-I Converting Enzyme and Association of the II Genotype with Insulin Resistance in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The study suggests certain ACE gene variations are more common in women with PCOS and may be linked to increased insulin resistance.
research Current Aspects of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Literature Review
Polycystic ovary syndrome is a common hormonal disorder in women, linked to increased risk of metabolic and heart diseases, and needs more research for better understanding and treatment.
research Basal Cell Carcinoma, Hedgehog Signaling, and Targeted Therapeutics: The Long and Winding Road
New treatments targeting the Hedgehog pathway can help treat advanced skin cancer but may have side effects and their effectiveness in early stages is unknown.
research Prolactin Signaling Influences the Timing Mechanism of the Hair Follicle: Analysis of Hair Growth Cycles in Prolactin Receptor Knockout Mice

research Steroid-Sparing Effect of Mycophenolate Mofetil in the Treatment of a Subepidermal Blistering Autoimmune Disease in a Dog: Clinical Communication
Mycophenolate mofetil helped reduce steroid use in treating a dog's autoimmune skin disease.
research Effect of Immunization Against Melatonin on Seasonal Fleece Growth in Feral Goats
Immunizing goats against melatonin can temporarily change their cashmere growth cycles and increase fleece production.
research The Biology of Hair Growth
Hair growth is influenced by hormones and goes through different phases; androgens can both promote and inhibit hair growth depending on the body area.
research Diphlorethohydroxycarmalol, Isolated from Ishige Okamurae, Increases Prostaglandin E2 through the Expression of Cyclooxygenase-1 and -2 in HaCaT Human Keratinocytes
A compound from brown algae boosts the production of a certain inflammatory substance in skin cells.
research Characterization of Transport Systems for Cysteine, Lysine, Alanine, and Leucine in Wool Follicles of Sheep
Sheep wool follicles absorb different amino acids at various rates and locations, which could affect wool growth based on diet and genetics.
research The Administration of Flumethasone by Three Different Routes, Its Measurement in the Plasma, and Some Effects on Wool Growth in Merino Wethers
Flumethasone causes wool shedding in Merino wethers, with recovery in about 60 days.
research Expression Analysis of the Type I Keratin Protein Keratin 33A in Goat Coat Hair
Keratin 33A is a key protein in goat winter coats, especially in high-producing breeds.
research Effects of Flutamide, a Pure Antiandrogen, on Endocrine Parameters in the Adult Female Rat
Flutamide, an antiandrogen, has minimal impact on female rat endocrine systems and does not significantly change their reproductive cycles.
research Inhibition of Prolactin Promotes Secondary Skin Follicle Activation in Cashmere Goats
Blocking prolactin increases the activity of secondary hair follicles in cashmere goats.
research Hair Growth Promoting Effect of 4HGF Encapsulated with PGA Nanoparticles by β-Catenin Activation and Related Cell Cycle Molecules
PGA-4HGF may help treat hair loss by activating hair growth pathways and extending the hair growth phase.
research Why Were Sardinians the Shortest Europeans? A Journey Through Genes, Infections, Nutrition, and Sex
Sardinians were historically short due to a mix of genetics and factors like disease and poor nutrition, but recent height increases suggest better living conditions had a bigger impact.
research Discovery of Genes and Proteins Possibly Regulating Mean Wool Fibre Diameter Using cDNA Microarray and Proteomic Approaches
Researchers identified genes and proteins that may influence wool thickness in sheep.
research Keratin
Understanding how keratin structures in hair are arranged and interact is key for creating methods to extract and purify them.
research Skin Diseases in Horses
Horse skin diseases are complex to manage and often require a biopsy for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
