This study found that fermented camel milk containing 50% pumpkin seed milk significantly improved oxidative stress markers in rats and enhanced sensory and physicochemical properties compared to untreated groups.

This study reports that BMP2 expression in goat skin is higher during late telogen and early anagen phases, indicating a potential role in hair follicle regeneration.

In this study, researchers successfully cloned the KAP24.1 gene from sheep to analyze its expression in skin and hair follicles, finding that Mountain-type Hetian sheep showed the highest levels of expression and that androgen concentration significantly influenced KAP24.1 protein expression.

This study found that prolactin gene polymorphism in Changthangi goats showed no significant association with Cashmere quality traits, indicating the need for further research with larger sample sizes.

This case study reports on a 1-year-old male goat with various health issues including bloody stool, hair loss, and lice, treated with medication and supplements.

This study identified 22 genetic loci potentially linked to body weight and wool traits in Ordos fine-wool sheep, highlighting six candidate genes that could be pivotal in understanding and improving these economically important characteristics.

This study identified a 582-bp deletion upstream of LHX2 in cashmere goats, likely linked to hair follicle development and cashmere production, providing insights into genetic factors in cashmere trait selection.

In this study, whole-genome sequencing of Lanping black-boned sheep identified ERBB4 and ROR1 genes as potentially important in their distinctive hyperpigmentation, enhancing understanding of their genetic evolution from Lanping normal sheep.

Among calves under one year in Uttarakhand, India, this study found that dermatophytosis prevalence was influenced by age, sex, breed, and season, with the highest rates in 4-6 month-olds, females, HF crossbreds, and during winter.

This study observed significant differences in hair and cashmere properties among three goat breeds in Southwest China, noting better quality cashmere in Inner Mongolia cashmere goats and their crossbreed compared to Dazu black goats.

This study observed that specific genes in cashmere goat skin exhibit a seasonal rhythm, potentially adapting to environmental light changes, which may affect downstream gene expression and physiological processes.

In this study, the researchers cloned and analyzed the CRABP I gene in Inner Mongolian cashmere goats, finding its highest mRNA expression at 90 days in embryo skin compared to later stages.

This study used whole-genome sequence data to identify numerous putative causal variants and genes affecting key wool traits and skin wrinkle in Merino sheep, highlighting their polygenic and pleiotropic nature.

This study in Mosul City, Iraq, examined mange infestation in rabbits, finding that 43.1% of 130 rabbits were infested, with Sarcoptes scabiei var. cuniculi being most prevalent, and noted no significant gender differences but age-related variations in infestation rates.

In this study, an unexpected premature birth of two goat kids occurred following prostaglandin administration in a timed artificial insemination protocol, with both kids exhibiting congenital abnormalities such as laryngotracheal swelling and generalized alopecia.

In this study, a specific genetic variant of KRTAP6-2 in Longdong cashmere goats was associated with finer cashmere fiber diameter, suggesting its potential as a molecular marker for breeding improvements.

This study successfully cloned the KAP6.1 gene from Xinjiang fine-wool sheep and found its genetic sequence has high homology with sheep and goat sequences, indicating close genetic relationships.

This study found that differences in cashmere fiber diameter in Tibetan cashmere goats are associated with variations in metabolic, hypoxic, and stress response-related proteins, offering insights for breeding strategies.

This study reported that the coat hairs of golden takin, living in harsh environments, have unique structural features compared to cattle, with overcoat hairs having continuous medullated tissue and undercoat hairs being finely crimped, potentially contributing to temperature regulation in cold conditions.

This study found that three weekly injections of long-acting tetracycline effectively treated generalized bovine dermatophilosis in a buffalo dairy farm.

In this study, researchers analyzed hair from different regions of Malvi cattle and found significant variations in color, shape, and band pattern, although the medullary index remained consistent between 0.50 and 0.60 across the samples.

This study found that the dark pigmentation pattern in Dun Mongolian horses' "Bider marking" is closely associated with higher protein levels and specific localization of MITF and WNT3A, suggesting these are key factors in its formation.

In this study, researchers observed that Purebred Arabian horses had significantly thicker hair in most assessed body areas compared to Polish Sports horses, indicating that breed should be considered in evaluations of equine skin and hair characteristics.

This review addresses the role of biotin in animal metabolism, emphasizing the need for further research to understand its dietary and microbial sources in different developmental stages in pre-ruminant and mature ruminant animals, without reporting new experimental results.

This source outlines common health issues in weanling gerbils, including skin infections often tied to beta-hemolytic Staphylococcus aureus, and obesity-related conditions like diabetes, as well as respiratory infections and musculoskeletal problems, without detailing specific new study results.

This study observed that more than 30% of animals in the New Valley had skin problems, with external parasites affecting half of those cases.

This study found that polymorphisms in the KAP8.1 gene were significantly associated with cashmere weight, length, and guard hair length in Chinese Inner Mongolian Cashmere goats, but not with fibre diameter.

In a controlled study, researchers observed that lambs exposed to colder temperatures had increased wool growth, thicker skin, altered physiological traits, and activated specific molecular pathways, highlighting potential targets for enhancing cold tolerance, welfare, and productivity in sheep breeds.

This study investigated the hair structure of wild pigs in the Balıkesir region using stereomicroscopy and scanning electron microscopy, finding distinct bifurcation patterns, but concluded that pig bristles used in brushes likely wouldn't retain these features, complicating species identification.
