This study developed a standardized strategy using blinded expert panel reviews of home videos to assess developmental milestones in infants with neurodegenerative diseases, finding it to be feasible, meaningful, and preferred by parent/caregivers compared to in-clinic assessments.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma can transiently inhibit bacterial growth in vitro against multidrug-resistant strains from diabetic foot infections, although its efficacy diminished over time and did not affect biofilm formation.

This study found that certain gene polymorphisms in keratin 27 and ELOVL4 are linked to improved cashmere fineness and production traits in Liaoning cashmere goats.

This study reported that zinc oxide nanoparticles synthesized using Tridax procumbens leaf extract demonstrated significant antibacterial and anticancer activity, showing potential for applications in biomedical and pharmaceutical fields.

This study found that extracts from the medicinal plants *Echinops echinatus* and *Tridax procumbens* displayed antimicrobial activity against several bacteria, including *Escherichia coli* and *Staphylococcus aureus*, and identified various compounds like flavonoids and terpenoids potentially responsible for these effects.

This review outlines the phytochemical composition and pharmacological potential of Tridax procumbens, a plant traditionally used in various regions for its purported medical benefits, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory effects, among others.

This review explores the use of topical and transdermal delivery for drugs and cosmetics, highlighting the benefits of avoiding side effects and rapid metabolism, with a focus on nanoparticulate formulations and techniques for studying skin penetration.

This review discusses 3D printing developments in topical delivery systems, highlighting the potential for 3D printed microneedles to become prominent in personalized cosmetic applications, but reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the design strategies and applications of long-acting polymeric microneedles, noting their potential to improve patient compliance and reduce side effects in chronic disease management, but reports no new experimental results.

This review highlights various plant-based and herbal treatments that reportedly help prevent hair loss and encourage hair growth. It also explores the molecular mechanisms, identified plant compounds, recent technologies such as nanoarchitectonics, and patents related to hair growth promotion.

This study observed that hair loss in captive rhesus macaques varies with season, sex, and housing conditions, and is significantly correlated with HPA axis activity as indicated by faecal cortisol metabolites.

This study found that temperature affects the influence of daylength on prolactin secretion and hair growth in dairy goats, without significant involvement of melatonin.

This study found that camelina oil supplementation was comparable to flaxseed and canola oil in supporting skin and coat health and managing inflammation in dogs over 16 weeks.

This study found that pimozide, d-butaclamol, and pituitary pars intermedia grafts darken hair color in agouti C3H Avy mice, suggesting dopaminergic inhibition influences peptide-controlled hair color cycling.

This study investigated the genetic basis of coat color variation in cattle using skin transcriptome and whole-genome analyses, identifying the ASIP gene as a significant determinant that is differentially expressed and under strong positive selection in black and brown cattle breeds.

This study found that inherited color dilution in Rex rabbit hair follicles is associated with DNA methylation changes, contributing to understanding the epigenetic regulation of rabbit pigmentation.

This study found that combined dietary supplementation of sodium hyaluronate and eggshell membrane was associated with various improvements in skin and coat health markers in healthy Ragdoll cats.

This study found that in domestic cats, black hair contained significantly higher cortisol concentrations than white hair, whereas ginger hair showed no significant difference compared to white hair. Additionally, a positive correlation was reported between hair cortisol levels and behavioral issues mentioned by cat owners.

This study reported that horses with pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction had improved coat condition, advanced shedding, and better quality of life when treated with blue light masks.

This study observed that vimentin and transthyretin proteins were more highly expressed in black sheep skins compared to white, suggesting their involvement in coat color formation.

This chapter reviews factors affecting hair growth and shedding and describes various conditions that can lead to hair growth diseases, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that transgenic expression of Endothelin 3 in mice can maintain a dark pigmentation phenotype independently of Mc1r signaling by regulating melanogenic genes.

This study found that current clinical, microscopic, and laboratory analyses did not reliably distinguish Alaskan malamutes with coat funk from normal dogs, indicating more research with larger samples is needed.

This study found an association between a splice site variant in the KRT71 gene and curly hair in Selkirk Rex cats, identifying a significant locus on chromosome B4.

This study observed that in wild snowshoe hares, gene expression patterns during seasonal coat color change show a consistent lag between gene expression and visible coat color changes.

The study observed that Friesian heifers experienced significant adaptation challenges to Kenya's equatorial conditions, taking around 18 months for their coat composition to resemble that of Dutch heifers in summer.

The researchers reported that keratin 33A is a structural protein specific to goat cashmere hair, with increased winter expression in high-cashmere-producing breeds.

This study found that Gnαs and Gnα11 proteins were significantly more expressed in the skin of black sheep compared to white sheep, suggesting their role in coat color regulation.

This study found that both buffy coat and apheresis PRP are effective for treating androgenetic alopecia, with buffy coat PRP associated with higher patient-reported improvement despite lower platelet counts.

This study found that while both buffy coat and apheresis PRP improved androgenetic alopecia, the buffy coat method was linked to greater patient-reported improvement despite having lower platelet counts.
