This study describes three adult dogs with sebaceous gland dysplasia, reporting that two showed moderate to marked improvement in symptoms with treatment, though ongoing management is required as the condition cannot be cured.

This case report describes an 89-year-old woman with a recurrent benign proliferating trichilemmal tumor on her back, highlighting its misdiagnosis as a sebaceous cyst and successful excision with free margins.

This study identified a germline variant in PLCD1 as a major risk allele for familial trichilemmal cysts, requiring a subsequent somatic mutation in the same allele for cyst formation.

The researchers reported that identifying specific hair shaft abnormalities is crucial for distinguishing patchy/plaque mycosis fungoides from psoriasis and eczematous dermatitis on non-scalp skin using dermoscopy.

This case study of a 50-year-old woman with myotonic dystrophy and multiple basal cell carcinomas suggests there could be a genetic predisposition for certain cutaneous tumors in such patients.

This case report describes a 58-year-old man with pretibial myxedema and hyperthyroidism, highlighting his cardiac symptoms, exophthalmos, weight loss, and specific dermatological findings over the last four years.

This study identified a novel splice-site variant of the LAMB3 gene that may cause junctional epidermolysis bullosa, suggesting gene sequencing is essential for accurate diagnosis.

This case report describes a 5-year-old girl with lipoid proteinosis, characterized by a raspy voice, thinning scalp hair, and recurrent crusted lesions leading to pock-like scars.

This study observed that seborrheic keratosis lesions in five patients exhibited specific histological changes after trauma, suggesting a connection between these lesions and hair follicle structures.

This article describes the structure of ovine interdigital sinuses using scanning electron microscopy, highlighting features such as dense secretory material, hair presence, and classical apocrine secretion characteristics.

In this study, the staining properties of two types of cysts, epidermal and pilar, were found to differ, supporting their origins from the epidermis and the trichilemmal hair follicle layer, respectively.

This study found significant correlations between scalp and nail involvement and laboratory findings in Korean patients with chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus, highlighting their importance for diagnosis and management.

This study suggests that Malassezia spp. overgrowth may contribute to pruritus and skin lesions in allergic cats, with antifungal treatments alone providing substantial improvements.

This study reviewed the genetic and phenotypic aspects of Olmsted syndrome, highlighting pathogenic mutations in TRPV3 and MBTPS2 genes and their association with specific skin manifestations like symmetrical keratoderma and hyperkeratotic plaques.

This study concluded that moderate to severe alopecia in Belgian Blue crossbred calves was due to malabsorption of dietary fat caused by a mixing error of milk replacer.

This review details pathologic changes in hair follicles, such as infundibular hyperkeratosis and inflammation, but offers no new diagnostic results.

This study identified that keratotic basal cell carcinomas with citrulline-positive keratin and hair papilla-like structures are highly differentiated, which helps distinguish them from squamous carcinomas.

This review describes various T-cell-mediated alopecias characterized by distinct lymphocytic patterns and explores their pathophysiology. It highlights the role of CD8+ and regulatory T cells, the JAK/STAT pathway, and stem cell niches, contributing to understanding and potentially addressing these hair loss conditions.

Among Australian fur seals at one colony, this study found that alopecia, primarily affecting juvenile females, is linked to hair shaft fractures associated with low tyrosine and zinc levels, as well as higher pollutant exposure.

This study reports on a unique clinical presentation of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides in a 60-year-old man, highlighting complexities in diagnosis due to dense histiocytic infiltration, which led to xanthoma formation before treatment, and obscured lymphomatous features.

In this study, researchers explored the molecular and cellular traits of avian reticulate scales, finding that they lack localized stem cell niches for regeneration, unlike other scale types, leading to repair but not regeneration after wounding.

This review discusses dermatological issues in llamas, detailing common findings, parasites, and disorders, but reports no new clinical results; it highlights the need for recognizing normal skin variations and discusses potential treatments like zinc therapy for certain conditions.

This case report describes a cat with localized scleroderma (morphea-like) that did not show clinical resolution or spontaneous remission after treatment, differing from previously documented cases.

This study found that small proline-rich proteins modify the biomechanical properties of cornified cell envelopes in rodent forestomachs, potentially affecting the tissue's ability to withstand mechanical stress.

This report describes a rare case of multiple trichofolliculomas on the face, which clinically resembled multiple trichoepitheliomas.

This case study and literature review describe eruptive vellus hair cysts as uncommon, potentially inherited or acquired lesions, associated with other skin conditions, and challenging to treat despite being benign.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy revealed considerable abnormalities in hair morphology in MPS I, II, IIIA, and IIIB patients, potentially related to heparan sulfate accumulation.
