Zhongwei goat is a unique Chinese native goat breed for excellent lamb fur. The pattern of flower spikes of the lamb fur was significantly reduced due to the reduction of the bending of the hair strands with growth. In order to explore the molecular mechanism underlying hair bending with growth, we performed the comprehensive analysis of transcriptome and proteome of skins from 45-days, 108-days and 365-days goat based on TMT-based quantitative proteomics and RNA-seq methods. In the three comparison groups, 356, 592 and 282 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were screened, respectively. KEGG pathway analysis indicated that DEPs were significantly enriched in a set of signaling pathways related to wool growth and bending, such as ECM-receptor interaction, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, PPAR signaling pathway, protein digestion and absorption, and metabolic pathways. In addition, 20 DEPs abundance of goat skin at three development stages were examined by PRM method, which validated the reliability of proteomic data. Among them, KRT and collagen alpha family may play an important role in the development of goat hair follicle and wool bending. COL6A1, COL6A2, CRNN, TNC and LOC102178129 were identified as candidate genes based on combined analysis of transcriptome and proteome data and PRM quantification. Our results identify the differential expressed proteins as well as pathways related to the wool bending of Zhongwei goats and provide a theoretical basis for further revealing the molecular mechanism underlying wool bending of goats.

Environmental awareness has led industries and consumers to replace products derived from oil resources with products derived from natural sources. In the case of the composite materials industry, the replacement of synthetic fibres with natural fibres has increased in recent years. To study the influence that different types of natural fibres and different textile manufacturing techniques have on the mechanical properties of composites, bio-based epoxy matrix composites reinforced with different natural animal fibres were produced, some reinforced with sheep's wool and others with dog wool, which were later subjected to bending and tensile tests.

Conventional asphalt roads are noisy. Currently, there are two main types of mainstream noise-reducing pavements: pore acoustic absorption and damping noise reduction. However, a single noise reduction method has limited noise reduction capability, and porous noise-reducing pavements have a shorter service life.

Waterborne Liquid-like Coatings with High Transparency, Superior Scratch Resistance, and Antismudge Properties.

The aqueous formulation of antismudge coatings is a crucial step for environmental protection and pollution reduction. However, the inferior mechanical durability of waterborne antismudge coatings poses challenges for their practical application. Herein, we developed a fully waterborne antismudge coating with excellent scratch resistance by preparing hyperbranched amine-rich polysiloxane (HSP) for antismudge ability and epoxy-rich zirconium-based aqueous solution (ZAS) for mechanical performance.

This study presents the development of conductive polymer-textile composites with outstanding electric heating properties achieved through the in-situ polymerization of polypyrrole on wool-felt fabrics, renowned for their superior thermal insulation. Employing successive layer-by-layer (LBL) cycles facilitated precise control over the uniform deposition of polypyrrole with the fabrics. The investigation focused on the interaction between wool fiber and polypyrrole, evaluating appearance, add-on, and electrical heating performance with varying LBL cycles.

Key Clinical Message: In dealing with bowed limbs along with increased alkaline phosphatase (ALP), even if the typical changes to the face are not very noticeable at first glance, Paget's disease of the bone (PDB) should be suspected, and the necessary investigations should be carried out to confirm the diagnosis.

Abstract: Paget's disease of the bone (PDB) is the second most prevalent metabolic bone disorder worldwide with disorganized bone remodeling. Here, a patient is presented with pain and bending of the right leg, whose skull and forehead changes are not noticeable at first glance, but with clinical suspicion and additional diagnostic evaluations, PDB diagnosis is confirmed for the patient.
