research Effects of the bovine slick mutation on heat stress responses and hair growth in mice
This study found that bovine slick mutations may enhance heat stress responses in mice but do not lead to the expected hair phenotype changes.

This study observed that beef cattle with certain prolactin receptor gene mutations, known as slick mutations, demonstrated improved post-weaning growth and temperature regulation in a hot, humid climate compared to other genotypes, suggesting genotype influences growth efficiency and heat tolerance.
research Genome‐wide association study identifies variants associated with hair length in Brangus cattle
In this study, researchers identified genetic variants in the PCCA and PRLR genes that are significantly associated with hair coat length in Brangus heifers, potentially contributing to more thermotolerant cattle.
research Quantifying effects of aging across structures of the mouse auditory system, with in-vitro brain slice preparations
This research observed that chronological age, rather than hearing loss, primarily affects the auditory cortex in aging, and found that brain aging in PolG mice mirrored that of wild-type counterparts, suggesting differential tissue sensitivity to mitochondrial dysfunction.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity How a follicle next to it is so genetically different that it never miniaturized??
Genetic differences in hair follicles affect hair loss patterns. Treatments discussed include finasteride, dutasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841.
community My 2 Years Progress (Hair Recovery)
A person shared their hair regrowth journey using HIMS topical treatments with finasteride, minoxidil, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and microneedling. They also discussed their transition as a transgender woman and the positive impact of HRT on hair recovery.
community Why don't we all just take 2.5mg dutasteride?
Switching from finasteride and minoxidil to a higher dose of dutasteride for hair loss is debated due to potential side effects. Many suggest starting with lower doses or sticking to finasteride if effective.
community Has anybody heard of this new cure?
A new hair loss treatment shows promise in mice but is unproven in humans. Effective treatments include finasteride and minoxidil.
community Why do we get bald from evolutionary perspective
Baldness is not an evolutionary disadvantage because it occurs after reproductive age. Treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride are used for androgenetic alopecia but don't address the root cause.
