August 2022 in “Plant Signaling & Behavior” The study on Arabidopsis thaliana root hair development found that growth media composition, particularly the presence of sucrose and the type of gelling agent, significantly affects root hair growth. Media with full MS sucrose gelrite or Gilroy sucrose gelrite produced the longest root hairs, around 0.6 mm. Sucrose enhanced root hair length and number, while gelrite, being less stiff, supported better growth than agar or phytoagar. The study underscores the importance of media composition in root hair phenotyping and suggests using standardized media like full MS with sucrose and gelrite for consistent comparisons in research.

March 2015 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” The symposium concluded that understanding the molecular mechanisms of skin aging could lead to better clinical practices and treatments.
November 2024 in “Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications” The study investigates hair loss in spontaneously mutated inbred C57BL/6 mice, which exhibit a delayed catagen phase in the hair cycle, leading to cyclic alopecia. The research identifies significant differential expression of genes related to keratinization, such as Krt16, Alox15, and Msx2, with Krt6b levels notably higher in hair loss mice across all hair cycle stages. These findings suggest that the abnormal expression of these genes contributes to the hair loss phenotype. The study provides a model for understanding hair loss mechanisms and developing potential treatments for alopecia.
