Guinea pigs' skin issues in the lumbar area may be caused by dermatological problems and need proper care.

This study found that Pomeranians with Alopecia X had fewer follicles per group, more fragile hair, and distinct hair cycle stages compared to non-alopecic Pomeranians, highlighting coat-type differences significant for diagnosing the condition.

This case report documents a dog with dermatophytosis, caused by the fungus Microsporum canis, presenting symptoms like alopecia in the neck and ear, highlighting the condition's prevalence in tropical and temperate climates and its zoonotic nature.

This study identified a new gene in sheep, KRTAP36-2, discovering variants associated with wool yield. Variations in this gene were linked to the efficiency of fleece conversion from greasy to clean, which may enhance wool production.

This study found that in cashmere goats, melatonin treatments enhanced cashmere growth by stimulating secondary hair follicles, increasing follicle density, and improving yield and quality, highlighting key genes and metabolic pathways involved in this process.

This study found that the down-hair fibers of native goats in Turkey have similar characteristics to cashmere fibers, indicating potential for high-quality textile products as a substitute.

This case study documented a capuchin monkey with dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum canis, successfully treated with itraconazole, marking the first such report and treatment description for this species.

This study found that during late pregnancy in rats, there is an increase in extrasynaptic GABA A receptor number in granule cells of the dentate gyrus, linked to hormonal fluctuations.

This study found that Florida manatees have unique types of specialized nerve endings in their vibrissae, which assist in their sensory and manipulative functions in aquatic environments.

This study suggests that the curly hair phenotype in Mangalitza pigs may involve complex gene interactions related to calcium signaling and lipid metabolism, rather than changes in TRPM2 or CYP4F3 expression.

In this study, researchers identified specific gene polymorphisms in Subo Merino sheep that significantly affect wool traits, suggesting these genetic markers could aid in breeding high-quality fine-wool sheep.

In this study, the researchers identified key genes with differential m6A methylation involved in cashmere fiber growth, suggesting these modifications may play a significant role in this process.

This study found that m6A-circHECA enhances the differentiation of stem cells into hair follicle lineages in cashmere goats by sequestering miR-449a-5p, boosting LEF1 gene expression, and activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

This study found that in Liaoning cashmere goats, overexpression of the PIP5K1A gene enhances skin fibroblast proliferation, while interference with this gene reverses melatonin-induced proliferation, and PIP5K1A regulates certain miRNA expressions, suggesting a role in improving cashmere yield and quality.

This study found that small amounts of RNA present in horsehair roots can be used for molecular biological analysis, although detecting mRNA transcripts in the hair shaft is more challenging.

In this study, a sole diet of Leucaena leucocephala caused hypothyroidism and poor weight gain in steers, but mineral supplementation improved some symptoms without normalizing thyroid hormone levels.

This study revealed specific patterns and potential functions of long non-coding RNAs during the hair follicle cycle of yaks, offering insights into their sequence conservation between yaks and cashmere goats.

This study found that overexpressing the gene Thymosin β4 (Tβ4) can promote the growth and development of secondary hair follicle dermal papilla cells in cashmere goats, suggesting its potential as a target for increasing cashmere production.

This study found that melatonin exposure promoted hair follicle fiber growth in Cashmere goat cultures, potentially influencing pathways related to the microvascular system and extracellular matrix.

In this study, researchers found that neonate hairs have a distinct microstructure with no medulla and smaller hair follicles compared to adult hairs.

This study examined genetic adaptations in Tibetan sheep through whole-genome resequencing, identifying key genes related to hypoxia tolerance, wool color, and body size. These findings provide a foundation for future molecular breeding strategies to enhance wool quality and adaptive traits in these high-altitude environments.

This review examines the unique genetic characteristics of the Orenburg down-hair goats, emphasizing their complex allele pool and the value of further genome research, without presenting new experimental results.

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 found that melatonin-mediated lncRNA018392 accelerated cell proliferation and inhibited apoptosis in cashmere goat skin fibroblasts by upregulating the expression of the nearby gene CSF1R.

CaBP1 and CaBP2 are necessary for proper hearing and neurotransmission in the ear's inner hair cells.

This study describes the successful management of Andean bear alopecia syndrome in three female bears using oclacitinib, leading to rapid pruritus resolution and fur regrowth without adverse effects.

This study reports a case of hepatogenic photosensitization in a 22-day-old lactating Tabapuã calf, induced by toxins ingested via breast milk from a mother fed Brachiaria decumbens pasture; treatment including pasture removal and medicinal intervention led to symptom remission.

In this study, supplementing ewes with soy hulls instead of a traditional corn-based supplement showed no impact on gastrointestinal nematode infection levels in hair sheep ewes managed in a pasture-based system, though some differences in packed cell volume at weaning were noted.
