research Correlation Analysis of BLTP1 (KIAA1109) and KIF27 Gene Polymorphisms with Wool Traits in Subo Merino Sheep

February 2026 in “Genes”

In this study, researchers identified specific gene polymorphisms in Subo Merino sheep that significantly affect wool traits, suggesting these genetic markers could aid in breeding high-quality fine-wool sheep.

research Identification and Characterization of Two Se6OMTs from Stephania epigaea Offer Novel Insights into the Biosynthetic Pathway of Cepharanthine

3 citations , February 2025 in “Metabolites”

In this study, researchers identified specific Se6OMT enzymes in *S. epigaea* involved in the cepharanthine biosynthetic pathway, providing insights into their substrate promiscuity and essential genetic components for metabolic engineering and synthetic biology applications of cepharanthine production.

research Characterization of the Promoter Regions of Two Sheep Keratin-Associated Protein Genes for Hair Cortex-Specific Expression

14 citations , April 2016 in “PloS one”

This study found that the promoter region of the sheep KRTAP11-1 gene drives specific transcriptional activity in wool follicles, suggesting it may regulate hair keratinocyte specificity.

research The calcium-binding protein calretinin is a marker of the companion cell layer of the human hair follicle

26 citations , June 2005 in “British Journal of Dermatology”

Calretinin identifies the companion cell layer in human hair follicles.

research Planar cell polarity-dependent and independent functions in the emergence of tissue-scale hair follicle patterns

33 citations , June 2017 in “Developmental Biology”

This study found that local refinement of hair follicles into higher order patterns can occur without the core planar cell polarity system, but global alignment with body axes requires its function throughout development and regeneration.

research Prostaglandin E2 prevents radiotherapy-induced alopecia by attenuating transit amplifying cell apoptosis through promoting G1 arrest

November 2022 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)”

This study found that prostaglandin E2 pretreatment may reduce radiotherapy-induced alopecia by enhancing hair follicle self-repair through transient G1 arrest, suggesting a potential preventive treatment.
