Trichohyalin in hair can trigger immune attacks in alopecia areata.

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 case study documents the co-existence of trichorhinophalangeal syndrome and loose anagen syndrome in a patient, highlighting a previously unreported association between the two conditions.

In this study, researchers describe a rare case of trichoepitheliomas in a 7-year-old boy, characterized by multiple skin lesions in a Blaschko-linear pattern, hypothesizing it as a type 1 segmental mosaicism without detected CYLD gene mutations.

This study observed that overexpression of the enzyme ODC in transgenic mice caused hair loss and skin changes similar to human papular atrichia, suggesting that ODC might be involved in a critical hair follicle function pathway.

This study on Antirrhinum trichomes found that stickiness in A. hispanicum is due to a recessive allele and mapped it to a specific region on Chromosome 1, while baldness in A. siculum likely involves a novel hairy allele.

This study analyzes the fine structure and protein distribution in monotreme hairs, finding similarities with other mammals and detailing unique immunocytochemical features in their inner root sheaths.

This study reported that 39.7% of Amargosa voles had mite-associated lesions, which may severely impact their health and fitness.

This study found that the Florida worm lizard has lost certain genes associated with claw development, which are present in other lizard species with claws, suggesting a link between the evolution of their limbless body and the loss of claw-related genes.

This study described two cases of trichoblastomas in the tactile hair skin of aged house musk shrews, highlighting that their histological structure differs from that in humans and other animals.

This review discusses Robertsonian chromosomal translocations and their prevalence in the population, highlighting their association with infertility, and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, trichostasis spinulosa was observed in 51 patients with lesions on the nose, where some follicles contained up to 86 hairs each, possibly influenced by endocrine factors and actinic rays.

This study reports five cases of congenital triangular alopecia featuring a central island of short terminal hair, with the cause remaining unknown.

In this review, researchers examined the molecular diversity and expression patterns of major skin appendage proteins, like keratins and EDC proteins, in tetrapods, highlighting recent findings in reptiles and birds and identifying knowledge gaps for future research.

In this study, oral etretinate resulted in increased hair length and loss of beading in a childhood monilethrix case, while the scalp's keratosis pilaris persisted.

This study concluded that exclamation mark hairs are the most reliable marker of disease activity in alopecia areata, with broken hairs, triangular hairs, and black dots also increasing the probability of active disease.

In this case report, two Persian cats with Lynxacarus radovskyi fur mites and symptoms like mild alopecia and pruritus fully recovered after receiving selamectin spot-on treatment monthly for three months.

In this study, researchers investigated the role of the ATX-LPA axis in asthma pathogenesis using human and mouse models and highlighted the potential for developing new ATX inhibitors as effective asthma treatments.

This study found that Notoedres cati infests about 5.5% of domestic cats in Hyderabad and suggests that Selamectin provides faster recovery than an Aloe vera and virgin coconut oil formulation, although both treatments are effective.

In this study, the authors evaluated 200 Egyptian children with focal non-cicatricial alopecia, finding that alopecia areata (42%) and tinea capitis (40.5%) were the most prevalent causes. Trichoscopy identified unique features for each condition, enhancing diagnosis and management.

This chapter reviews the clinical and morphological diagnostic features of various hair dysplasias, including atypical pili torti, pseudomonilethrix, and trichothiodystrophy, and reports no new results.

This case study suggests that atrichia with papular lesions associated with common variable immunodeficiency may follow an autosomal-dominant inheritance pattern, differing from previous reports of autosomal recessive inheritance.

This case report describes a patient with pseudopelade affecting both the scalp and beard area, highlighting the unusual presentation of a rare hair disorder.

Tufted folliculitis is common in patients with folliculitis decalvans.

This study found that trichoscopic examination can effectively differentiate between alopecia areata and trichotillomania, as specific features such as black dots and exclamation marks favor alopecia areata while hair breaking at various lengths and several unique patterns are exclusive to trichotillomania.

This study found that treating cats infested with Lynxacarus radovskyi using Fipronil resulted in complete resolution of the infestation by day 15.

This review discusses the use of trichoscopy for diagnosing alopecia and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing its role in identifying vascular and follicular features.
