This study found that variation in the ovine KRTAP27-1 gene may influence wool growth, with certain genotypes associated with higher mean staple length and greasy fleece weight in sheep.

This study identified a single autosomal recessive gene responsible for hypotrichosis in a mutant rabbit strain, affecting hair growth and causing epidermal and hair follicle abnormalities.

In this study, clinicians are advised to perform trichography regularly on Pomeranians with HCA, as significant hair abnormalities, especially TN, may affect hair quality; further research is needed to understand the underlying mechanisms and treatment options.

This study identified the same N-terminal and C-terminal amino acids in human and horse hair as previously found in wool and feather keratin.

This research found that a monoclonal antibody (MAb 17) specifically reacts with certain subunits of trichocyte keratin in rats, and discovered that trichocyte keratin expression in hair and whiskers begins at different embryonic stages.

This study found that miR-133a-3p and miR-145-5p influenced goat hair follicle stem cell differentiation by inhibiting NANOG expression and promoting SOX9 expression.

This study documented the first confirmed infections of Trichophyton bullosum in donkeys in Africa, indicating equines as primary hosts and highlighting the potential underestimation of this pathogen's prevalence.

In this study conducted in Ilam province, Iran, researchers found that 19.35% of red foxes and 17.85% of jackals were infested with at least one type of ectoparasite, primarily Ctenocephalides canis.

This study identified a wide range of differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs in the hair follicles of Hetian sheep, which may be useful for further research on improving carpet wool quality.

This study found that aquapuncture analgesia using chili pepper decoction resulted in more complete wound healing and increased hair growth compared to distal paravertebral nerve block in goats after exploratory laparotomy.

This article discusses the structure and protective function of pangolin scales, emphasizing their composition of α-keratins and β-keratins, and highlights evolutionary keratin diversification in tetrapods; it reports no new empirical findings.

This study investigated circRNA expression in Zhongwei goat skin at different growth stages and found that certain circRNAs, such as circRNA8782 and circRNA3173, may play roles in regulating wool curvature by affecting signaling pathways and fibroblast proliferation.

This study identified a compound heterozygous mutation in a hairless rhesus macaque, which was associated with skin abnormalities similar to those in hairless mice and humans with APL.

In this study, researchers reported telocytes in the dermis of silky fowl embryos at different developmental stages, highlighting their immunophenotypes and interactions with other cells.

This study investigated pangolin skin genetics, finding that while sweat gland-related genes are not inactivated, several genes related to sebaceous gland function are, which highlights complex evolutionary adaptations in mammalian skin.

This review highlights advancements in applying single-cell sequencing to cattle, sheep, and goats, noting its potential to elucidate cellular diversity and improve traits affecting livestock health and productivity, despite challenges in cell population annotation and spatial resolution in these species.

This study identified and characterized progenitor cells from equine feet that may play a role in the pathogenesis and recovery of laminitis, suggesting potential therapeutic targets for treatment.

This study observed that the expression of EGF and EGFR increased during goat fetal skin development, suggesting these components play significant roles in skin maturation.

This study investigated the molecular mechanisms of hair follicle morphogenesis in Ordos fine-wool sheep, identifying differential genes related to primary and secondary hair follicles, and providing important insights for improving wool quality and breeding strategies.

In this study, zinc supplementation rapidly improved conditions such as anorexia, depression, and foot soreness in sheep and goats diagnosed with zinc deficiency, along with healing skin lesions and resumption of hair and wool growth.

This study identified a 14,883 bp genomic deletion affecting the Plcd1 and Vill genes as likely responsible for the abnormal phenotype observed in snthr-1Bao mice.

This study reports that KRTAP-like proteins, which resemble keratin-associated proteins found in mammals, are also present in the cornified teeth of various lamprey species, suggesting these proteins may serve similar functions in skin appendages across different vertebrates despite independent evolutionary origins.

This study found that NNAT is localized in both undifferentiated and differentiated cells across various rat tissues and has cell-specific intracellular localization, suggesting distinct functional roles.

In this study, the researchers reported extensive gene loss and high pseudogenization rates of α-keratin genes in cetaceans compared to terrestrial mammals, likely linked to hair loss and aquatic adaptations.

This study reports that a 190,000 molecular weight protein, identified as trichohyalin, may play a matrix role in the development of inner root sheaths in hair follicles.

This study found that seasonal changes significantly affected hair follicle activity and fibre growth in Merghoz goats, with variations seen in feed intake and growth patterns across different seasons.

This chapter reviews bacterial skin diseases in camelids, such as folliculitis, furunculosis, and others, providing diagnostic insights without presenting new clinical results.

This study observed significant clinical effects, such as hair loss and testicular changes, in common quail treated with the steroids IVF-C Inj and Diane-35, especially highlighting cyproterone acetate's impact on vital organs like the liver.

This study found that blocking neurosteroid synthesis in pregnant sheep increased HPA axis activity, particularly under stress, suggesting neurosteroids help modulate stress response.

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.
