Table 2. Hair-related important DE genes between two groups.

Gene name Description Reference
Wnt2 Required for repopulation of pigment-producing melanocytes in the hair bulb [24]
esrα(Estrogen receptor α) Regulates the telogen-anagen follicle transition [25]
gpr110(G protein-coupled receptor 110) Involved in determining hair texture in humans [26]
ephA3 (Ephrin-A3) Increases the density of hair follicles and accelerates anagen development. Increases proliferation of outer root sheath cells [27][28]
cyp (Cytochrome P450) Participates in the metabolism of endogenous and exogenous substrate metabolism in the skin [29]
spink4 (Serine peptidase inhibitor, Kazal type 4) Member of the Kazal type family of serine protease inhibitors and essential for epithelial tissue homeostasis [30]
kap13.1(Keratin associated protein 13.1) Related to cashmere traits in goat [31]
mitf(Microphthalmia associated transcription factor) A newly recognized mediator of Wnt signaling [32]
gbp-1 (Guanylate binding protein 1) Mediator of the anti-proliferative effect of inflammatory cytokines in endothelial cells [33]
