This study found that keratinocytes derived from the germinative epithelium of ovine hair follicles have extensive in vitro growth potential, challenging the idea that these cells are solely transit-amplifying.

This study evaluated a hair mask containing rice germ oil GX-N and ferulic acid on damaged hair and found that rice germ oil GX-N improved hair characteristics after bleaching, UV, and heat exposure, but adding ferulic acid did not provide extra benefits.

This study found that shampoos containing extracts from black bean, wheat, and rice bran enhanced hair growth activity and improved the physical properties of aged hair in laboratory models.

This review investigates how selenium, a trace element found in wheat, may impact hair health by examining its biochemical role in hair follicle biology and its potential therapeutic and toxicological effects.

In this study, researchers found that barrier-enhancing formulations significantly reduced the penetration of proteins into hair follicles in porcine skin models, with effectiveness varying by formulation.

This protocol describes a method for regenerating hair follicles using a bioengineering technique called the Organ Germ Method, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study reveals that transglutaminase activity is widespread in integumentary structures of mammals and birds, suggesting it plays a significant role in the cornification of hard skin appendages like nails and feathers.

This review discusses the role of TGM3 in skin and hair follicle biology, human tumor pathology, and genetic abnormalities, and reports no novel results; the authors highlight its potential as a cancer diagnostic biomarker.

This study found that while flour irradiation disrupted the physiology of Tribolium confusum, it also caused significant weight loss and biochemical changes in rats fed on irradiated flour.

This study observed that innervation of the mystacial pad in rats by fine-caliber axons is more extensive and complex than previously described, with distinct differences in labeling patterns depending on the tracer and survival time.

This study suggests that the differences in aluminium tolerance between ET8 and ES8 wheat cultivars are linked to a complex suite of physiological mechanisms, including variations in malate and K+ release, Ca2+ homeostasis, and SV channel properties, rather than solely malate efflux.

This study suggests that a tip-focused gradient of intracellular G-actin concentration at the apex is crucial for root hair growth, and maintaining this gradient requires high calcium levels at the root hair tips.

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.

This study suggests that ultra-fine powders of steamed and lyophilized mature silkworms may have enhanced pharmacological effects compared to fine powders, possibly due to their smaller particle size.

In this study, microarray and proteomic analyses indicated that genes involved in immune response, receptor binding, and growth factor activity might influence wool fibre diameter in sheep.

Wool follicles can grow in a lab with the right nutrients and conditions.

This study found that flower extracts of Wedelia trilobata may serve as a promising active ingredient for cosmeceutical products due to their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties.

This study identified 8-hydroxy germacrene B from Curcuma aeruginosa as a highly potent in-vitro 5-alpha reductase inhibitor with significant anti-androgenic activity, while exhibiting mild cytotoxicity on prostate cancer cells without affecting human dermal papilla cells at tested concentrations.

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, a TGF-β mimic molecule from Heligmosomoides polygyrus was observed to enhance wound healing in mice, with improved tissue regeneration and specific immune cell recruitment without increased scarring.

This study found that the outer protein layer of Merino wool is rich in sulfur-containing proteins similar to those found in both sheep wool and human hair.

In this study, researchers used the CRISPR/Cas9 system to edit the FGF5 gene in Dorper sheep, observing increased density and finer wool, along with changes in cortisol levels and antioxidant enzyme activity linked to hair follicle development.

This study suggests that Tenebrio molitor larvae extract may promote hair growth and prevent hair loss by enhancing cell proliferation and protecting against cytotoxicity in laboratory settings.

Centrifugal forces can help prepare hair follicle germs for hair regeneration.

This study used whole-genome sequence data to identify numerous putative causal variants and genes affecting key wool traits and skin wrinkle in Merino sheep, highlighting their polygenic and pleiotropic nature.

In this study, overexpressing the cotton gene GhGT-3b_A04 in Arabidopsis thaliana enhanced resistance to Verticillium wilt but also inhibited rosette leaf growth.

This review discusses the potential benefits of converting pumpkin seeds, often considered industrial waste, into valuable nutrition-rich materials, but reports no new experimental results.

This study reported advances in identifying low-abundance proteins in wool by using fractionation techniques to reduce the dominance of intermediate filament proteins, improving the understanding of the wool proteome.
