This study suggests that hair follicle dermal stem/progenitor cells play a key role in both hair regeneration and skin wound healing, with potential implications for preventing hair follicle miniaturization linked to aging or alopecia.

This study describes a new mite species from marmots in a city park in Washington, noting that infested marmots displayed significant hair loss and tissue abnormalities.

This study discovered two new species of mites in the hair follicles of squirrel monkeys from South America, potentially causing follicle damage due to secondary infection.

This case report describes a rare instance of dermatophytosis in a young cat caused by Microsporum gypseum, confirmed by molecular analyses to be Arthroderma gypseum.

Neuromyotonia and morphoea can occur together in the same body areas.

This study found that presynaptic inhibition of Aαβ cutaneous primary afferents in cats is mostly mediated by GABAergic interneurons that also contain glycine.

This study reports an abnormal onion-shaped swelling on the hair shafts of some Abyssinian cats, affecting the appearance of their coat, though skin and hair structures appear normal under the microscope.

This study found evidence that polythelia pilosa, previously excluded from classification, should be reintroduced as it marks true aberrant mammary structures in men and hirsute women.

In this study, researchers investigated GAGs from the marine invertebrate Microcosmus exasperatus, finding that its polysaccharides possess antitumoral properties without affecting anticoagulant activity. The unique composition shows potential for cancer treatment when combined with existing therapies in future studies.

This abstract provides no research results, focusing instead on navigation and subscription details for JAMA Dermatology content access.

This case report describes two guinea pigs infested with Acarus farris mites, which were successfully treated with Phoxim and removal of contaminated hay, leading to rapid resolution of skin lesions and alopecia.

This study observed that during male silkmoth development, trichogen cells in olfactory sensilla undergo significant membrane recycling, contributing to sensillum structure formation in a precisely timed series of stages.

This case report highlights a patient with Ayme-Gripp syndrome, revealing an association between the syndrome and hypothyroidism, and underscores the importance of considering rare genetic conditions in differential diagnoses of endocrinopathies.

This study identified a new Demodex species causing demodicosis in a zoo koala, successfully treated with daily oral ivermectin.

This study found that asebic mice exhibit abnormal sebaceous gland differentiation and insufficient sebum production due to defective regulation of cell processes, despite possessing normally developing sebaceous glands initially.

This study reports two cases of myasthenia gravis patients with thymoma who exhibited various autoimmune symptoms including alopecia, suggesting a link between thymus-related immune dysregulation and comorbid conditions.

This study reports on a patient whose symptoms, including trichoepitheliomas and clinical alopecia, may suggest a new syndrome possibly linked to myasthenia gravis.

This article reviews acromegaloid facial appearance syndrome and presents a case in a 57-year-old woman, emphasizing the need for more cases to understand its clinical features and inheritance patterns.

The researchers reported that non-motor symptoms like taste disorders and alopecia are associated with myasthenia gravis, particularly in severe cases and those linked to thymoma.

In this study, researchers found that specific mutations in iRhom2 in mice lead to skin and hair abnormalities which depend on the presence of the protein ADAM17, suggesting a complex role for iRhom2 in tissue development and potential implications for treating tylosis with oesophageal cancer.

This study describes a newly identified mite species, Demodex zalophi, found on captive sea lions and highlights its unique traits, including being the first of its kind described in marine mammals.

This study describes unique anatomical characteristics of the skin and hair structures in the silver marmoset, including features such as thin epidermis, specialized nerve end-organs, and distinctive gland compositions.

This report documents a rare case of familial eyelash trichomegaly and synophrys in three siblings, with one sister also having loose anagen hair syndrome, an unreported association.

This article introduces the term "anisotrichosis" to describe the significant variation in hair shaft diameters observed in pattern alopecia, drawing a parallel to anisocytosis seen in blood smears, but reports no new research findings.

This study found that full-length Agouti protein modulates melanocortin receptor signaling through a dual mechanism involving competitive antagonism and receptor down-regulation, whereas the carboxyl-terminal fragment acts solely as a competitive antagonist.

This review discusses the roles of the Agouti and Agouti-related proteins in pigmentation and energy regulation and reports no new experimental findings.
