In this study, researchers documented the first instance of alopecia in bats within the Puebla region, specifically affecting two Artibeus jamaicensis and one Choeronycteris mexicana, possibly linked to environmental stress from human activities interfering with their nutrition.

This study reports a case of ringworm in a Chinchilla lanigera, attributed to stress and contact with canine material contaminated with Microsporum canis.

This study analyzes the fine structure and protein distribution in monotreme hairs, finding similarities with other mammals and detailing unique immunocytochemical features in their inner root sheaths.

In this case report, researchers documented the first instance of alopecia in a bat from Veracruz, México, specifically in an individual of Artibeus jamaicensis, likely caused by a thoracic injury leading to an infection.

This review synthesizes current knowledge on choriogenesis, the final stage of oogenesis in insects, by exploring the role of follicle cells, regulatory mechanisms of gene expression, and the biochemical makeup of the eggshell, while also highlighting structural diversity and adaptations across insect species.

This study describes a newly identified mite species, Demodex zalophi, found on captive sea lions and highlights its unique traits, including being the first of its kind described in marine mammals.

In this study, hair samples from Mexican women were found to be intermediate in diameter and shape between Asian and Caucasian hair, exhibiting high intra- and inter-individual variability and unexpected levels of tensile damage.

This study found that ingesting seeds from the Lecythis ollaria tree may cause hair loss and other toxic effects in animals.

This study found that Brandt's hedgehog has the thickest skin on its back and the thinnest on the cloacal region, with sebaceous and sweat glands primarily located in the nostril area.

This study described the structure of the hair brush on male Endoclita vietnamensis moths' legs, identifying characteristics such as specialized scales and a pheromone gland, which could facilitate the future development of pheromone-based pest control methods for eucalyptus pests in China.

This case report describes a 38-year-old patient with trichomycosis axillaris, successfully treated with shaving, 3% erythromycin cream, and clotrimazole powder.

This study on Antirrhinum trichomes found that stickiness in A. hispanicum is due to a recessive allele and mapped it to a specific region on Chromosome 1, while baldness in A. siculum likely involves a novel hairy allele.

This study found that the unique crest feather formation in Polish chickens is driven by a 195-bp duplication in the HoxC10 gene region, which alters gene expression by modifying the genomic structure, suggesting a mechanism for diverse integumentary appendages in birds.

This study reported that 39.7% of Amargosa voles had mite-associated lesions, which may severely impact their health and fitness.

This study describes a new mite species from marmots in a city park in Washington, noting that infested marmots displayed significant hair loss and tissue abnormalities.

This review provides an overview of the molecular evolution of corneous beta-proteins in reptiles and birds, highlighting their distinct genetic origin and role in epidermal structures, but reports no new results.

In this study, in ovo injection of CHIR-99021 promoted the morphogenesis and development of feather follicles in chick embryos by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This study found that unique genomic regions in Korean long-tailed chickens may contribute to their long tail feathers, offering potential for genetic advancements in ornamental chicken breeding.

This study observed that buffalo teats have a melanin-rich epidermis, no hair follicles, and a complex structure with specific epithelial and muscular characteristics.

This study documented clinical cases of dermatophytosis in two free-ranging southern chamois in the Eastern Pyrenees, with Trichophyton mentagrophytes identified in both animals.

This study concluded that coat damage in captive rhesus macaques is unlikely caused by parasitic, bacterial, or mycotic infections but may be linked to environmental or behavioral factors affecting hair growth.

This report discusses the characteristics of circle hairs, a type of body hair growth disorder, and emphasizes the value of trichoscopy for diagnosis.

In this study, ketoconazole treatment successfully cured a dog with erythematous epilation caused by Chaetomium globosum, with new hair growth observed 9 weeks later.

This study reports that hypotrichosis congenita in Hereford cattle is associated with a KRT71 mutation, leading to color dilution follicular dysplasia.

In this study, the researchers found that female Pieris brassicae butterflies have more "B-type" chemoreceptory hairs on their forelegs, which may be involved in selecting oviposition sites through detecting mustard oil glucosides.

This case study describes a Lop male rabbit with Malassezia-associated dermatitis, initially treated with griseofulvin but requiring ketoconazole for complete recovery after recurrence.

This study describes unique anatomical characteristics of the skin and hair structures in the silver marmoset, including features such as thin epidermis, specialized nerve end-organs, and distinctive gland compositions.
