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.

This study focused on equine sarcoid, the most common tumor in horses, and described its types, clinical signs, and histopathological characteristics such as hyperkeratosis and changes in the hair follicle and dermis.

This study found that cows with alopecia, ill-thrift, and infertility exhibited significant decreases in serum copper, zinc, calcium, inorganic phosphorus, magnesium, and hematological measures, indicating moderate microcytic, hypochromic anemia.

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 sequenced and analyzed the goat skin transcriptome, revealing genes involved in signal transduction and cell communication that are differentially expressed during hair growth phases, providing insights for Cashmere goat breeding.

In a Romanian wildlife rehabilitation center, this study reported that dermatophytosis affected northern white-breasted hedgehogs, with 77.4% of the 31 treated cases responding favorably to a 14-day itraconazole regimen, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and treatment.

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.

In this study, researchers described dermatophylosis in sheep from Northeast Brazil, observing sporadic cases marked by alopecic and crusty skin lesions, affecting both adult males and females primarily in April, June, and November.

This study describes the stages of hair follicle development and foetal pelage growth in southern elephant seals, highlighting the formation and shedding processes of the first and subsequent hair generations.

In this study of four Chinese goat breeds, black goats exhibited significantly higher melanin content, while Inner Mongolian cashmere goats had longer fiber lengths. These findings highlight genetic variations in coat color and fiber length, informing future breeding programs.

This study observed that smallholder cattle farmers in West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia using leucaena as feed managed more cattle and focused more on fattening rather than breeding, but leucaena toxicity led to illnesses such as hair loss and, in a few cases, reproductive issues.

This study suggests that Equisetum debile extracts, particularly the ethyl acetate fraction, may offer natural cosmeceutical benefits for treating hyperpigmentation, delaying skin aging, and remediating hair loss due to androgenic alopecia.

This study found that specific genetic variants of the KAP22-1 gene in Egyptian sheep breeds were significantly associated with wool traits like crimp, staple length, kemp score, and greasy color grade, suggesting their potential use in breeding programs.

In this case study, a 2-year-old mixed breed dog with ehrlichiosis was treated successfully with a combination of doxycycline, symptomatic therapies, and environmental measures to eradicate Rhipicephalus sanguineus ticks, resulting in improved symptoms and no further tick infestation.

This study reports the first known occurrence of Leporacarus gibbus infestation alongside Cheyletiella parasitovorax and Psoropotes cuniculi in a domestic rabbit in Espírito Santo, Brazil.

In this report, the researchers described a follicular dysplastic syndrome in two adult white-tailed deer, where gross alopecia and histologic signs suggestive of alopecia areata were observed, potentially predisposing affected deer to environmental exposure.

This report describes two South Australian Poll Hereford calves with a syndrome of congenital dyserythropoietic anaemia, dyskeratosis, and progressive alopecia, observing specific blood and bone marrow abnormalities.

This study proposes that seasonal alopecia and reproductive changes in six female fossas at the San Diego Zoo may be linked to hormonal changes associated with reproductive activity.

This study found that in male androgenic alopecia, the androgen receptor coactivator ARA70/ELE1 exhibits differential expression patterns, suggesting its involvement in the condition.

This study found that in Chinese goat breeds, specific genetic variations, particularly in Tibetan Cashmere goats, are associated with traits like hair growth and adaptation to high-altitude environments.

This study analyzed stable isotopes in animal fibers from Bronze and Iron Ages sites in Xinjiang, China, revealing that caprines and cattle primarily consumed C3 plants, while some Iron Age individuals showed unusual high C4 plant intake likely linked to millet foddering practices.

This study confirms the presence of large structural variations in the genome of Nellore cattle, which may contribute to their environmental adaptation to tropical regions.

In this case study, a female European bison calf developed generalized bacterial dermatitis caused by *Staphylococcus aureus*, which improved after targeted treatment, highlighting the need for timely diagnosis and disease management in wildlife conservation.

In this study, using scRNA-seq, researchers detailed the gene expression and cell differentiation processes in goat fetal horn buds, identifying crucial roles for dermal and epithelial cells in horn initiation and highlighting potential genetic factors involved in horn morphogenesis.

This study identified a 195 bp duplication in crested chickens that causes large crest feathers and can be associated with cerebral hernia in some breeds, but not all.

This study highlights the importance of understanding the biology and social behavior of Old World monkeys in biomedical research, noting that improper housing can lead to stress-related behaviors that may impact research outcomes.

In this study, researchers conducted additional IHC staining on equine skin sections and found that collagen type III primarily labels the extracellular matrix, while anti-PDGFR-antibody staining highlights cells with long-shaped processes mainly arranged around hair follicles.

The abstract highlights that a thorough physical examination, including specific considerations like umbilical examination and joint palpation, is crucial for diagnosing and managing the health of neonatal ruminants, as reported in this guide for veterinarians.

In this study, researchers observed that introducing an Environmental Enrichment Program improved the reproductive and zootechnical performance of Calomys callosus rodents by enhancing reproductive indices, parental care, and overall health, including reduced non-infectious lumbar alopecia.
