This study found that maternal melatonin supplementation improved fur quality in Rex rabbit offspring by increasing hair follicle density and altering melatonin receptor gene expression in several organs.

This study suggests that β-catenin plays an important role in wool follicle development in transgenic sheep by enhancing the expression of keratin protein genes.

This study found that although soil and forage in Middle Paraíba, Brazil, contained normal to high copper levels, the surrounding bovine populations showed signs of copper deficiency likely due to antagonistic effects from high iron, zinc, and manganese levels.

In this case report, researchers identified Arthroderma vanbreuseghemii as the cause of a familial fungal infection, which was successfully treated with itraconazole and topical terbinafine cream.

This study found that Prss53-mutated rabbits exhibited curved hair and skeletal dyskinesia, suggesting a link between Prss53 loss and these traits, potentially involving disrupted calcium metabolism.

This study found evidence that polythelia pilosa, previously excluded from classification, should be reintroduced as it marks true aberrant mammary structures in men and hirsute women.

In this study, Pleuropterus cilinervis extracts and animal milk fermented with Lactobacillus rhamnosus were found to enhance hair re-growth in mice more than the positive control treatment.

This study found that the structure and mineral content of dromedary camel hair, specifically the medulla patterns, medulla index, and elemental composition, change with age, revealing differences among camels aged 1 year, 3-5 years, and 8-10 years.

This study found that sphynx cats exhibit hair follicle dysplasia with abnormal hair shaft production, but without a reduction in the number of follicles, similar to murine KRT 71 mutants.

This study found that treating cashmere goat kids with melatonin significantly increased secondary hair follicle density, improving cashmere quality and yield, likely through mechanisms involving the MAPK signaling pathway.

This study analyzed the KRTAP7 gene in four Indian camel breeds and found that the gene sequences were identical across breeds, with no observed SNPs in coding or non-coding regions.

This study found that vimentin expression in the hair follicles of Inner Mongolian Cashmere goats is highest during the growth stage and localized to the outer root sheath, suggesting a role in hair cycle regulation.

This study found that epimorphin is closely linked to developing hair follicles in human fetuses, suggesting it plays a significant role in hair follicle morphogenesis.

In this study, researchers used single-cell RNA sequencing to map the hair follicle microenvironment in fine-wool sheep, identifying specific cell types and gene expressions that influence wool fiber diameter, with dermal papilla cells playing a significant role in hair follicle development.

In this study, calves fed skim milk and soybean oil experienced hair loss over the perineal region, which regrew once they began consuming hay or grain, despite continuing the same diet.

This study is the first to document alopecia in Guadalupe fur seals in the Northeast Pacific Ocean, finding that it may result from nutritional stress due to higher sea surface temperatures.

This study concludes that tiny infundibular cysts, rather than comedones, are the primary lesions in chloracne.

This study found that comma hairs are a distinctive feature of tinea capitis caused by Microsporum canis, distinguishing it from alopecia areata, which is characterized by exclamation mark hairs.

This study highlights the loss of hair-type keratin genes in cetaceans compared to terrestrial mammals, suggesting a potential adaptive role linked to their hairless phenotype and habitat changes.

In this study, Persian cats treated with weekly Fipronil spray showed no detectable ear mites after four weeks, suggesting the spray's effectiveness against ear mites.

This study successfully established a functionally stable immortalized sheep granulosa cell line (GCs-SV40T-GFP) that can passaged up to 50 generations, maintaining morphological stability and estradiol secretion, offering a valuable model for research into animal reproductive function and hormone regulation.

In this study, researchers found that the evolutionary and structural features of the oFGF5 gene in sheep may influence hair follicle development and hair growth regulation.

This study examined the skin structure of European Brown Bears, finding that the thickest skin is on the back and the thinnest on the ventral abdomen, with distinct layers and fiber networks.

This study identified two evolutionarily conserved ultra-high-sulfur keratin proteins in human and sheep hair follicles, which are specifically expressed in the hair cuticle during the late stages of fiber development.

This article discusses congenital atrichia and presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that GFRα2 influences cell size but not survival or target innervation of Ret-positive low-threshold mechanoreceptors in mouse dorsal root ganglia, differing from its role in nonpeptidergic nociceptors.

This study describes the characteristics and potential research applications of the first hairless guinea pigs in Iran, noting their suitability for allergy, dermal, transplantation, and immunology studies.

This study suggests that acetone extracts and certain fractions of Drynariae Rhizomas may support hair growth when applied topically in C57BL/6N mice models, indicating potential use for treating alopecia areata.

This study found that low-coverage whole-genome sequencing followed by imputation effectively identifies genetic variants associated with wool traits in Angora rabbits, offering a cost-efficient method for genetic research and breeding.
