This paper reviews the literature on acquired trichorrhexis nodosa, a clinical hair loss diagnosis associated with hair care practices, particularly in those with tightly curled hair, and emphasizes management through protective hair care regimens rather than traditional prescription therapies.

This review discusses the occurrence and impact of background histopathologic changes in nonhuman primate research, emphasizing the importance of understanding these factors to enhance study validity and interpretation.

This review discusses the impact of various external factors like cosmetics, traction, and radiation on hair health and color, but reports no new findings.

This study found that the petroleum ether extract of Citrullus colocynthis fruit and an isolated steroidal compound may reduce prostatic hyperplasia in rats induced by testosterone, suggesting potential use in managing androgen-dependent conditions.

In this study, researchers developed a new method called Enriched-GF, which enhances growth factor recovery from platelet concentrates through a combination of glass bead activation, freeze-thaw cycling, and calcium stimulation, outperforming conventional methods by providing higher and more consistent yields for regenerative medicine applications.

This study found that formulations containing pequi and buriti oils improved texture properties and significantly increased gloss in curly hair, with pequi oil also significantly enhancing tensile strength.

This article discusses the diagnostic approach to focal alopecia in dogs, focusing on distinguishing between pruritic skin disease and inflammatory or non-inflammatory causes; it presents no new experimental results.

This study identified the dermal sheath as a key component of the hair follicle niche, essential for outer root sheath regression during the hair cycle, highlighting its importance in hair follicle support and regulation.

This study identified the rough coat mutation in mice, but found that LOXL is not the causal gene, although its downregulation might contribute to related phenotypic changes.

In this study, researchers identified loss of function variants in the HR gene as likely causes of the distinct roaning hair coat seen in lykoi cats.

In this study, researchers observed that underhairs in domestic cats were the thinnest and shortest with regular scales, while guard hairs were the longest and thickest, having irregular scales.

This article reviews the skin and hair changes associated with menopause due to hormonal shifts and reports no new clinical results.

This review examines the genetic factors influencing coat color in horses and donkeys, highlighting key genes like MC1R, TYR, MITF, ASIP, and KIT, and discusses implications for selective breeding and the relationship between coat color and specific equine diseases.

In this study, researchers identified genes IRF2BP2 and EGFR as key to understanding double-coated fleece formation in Hetian sheep, offering insights that may advance machine learning-driven multi-omics selection models in sheep breeding.

This study found that specific genetic variations in the IRF2BP2 gene influence fleece structure in sheep, with one variant completely determining coat type and another significantly modifying fiber characteristics, providing valuable insights for improving fleece quality through selective breeding.

This review examines current understanding of how skin microbiota interact with and influence wound healing, highlighting the roles of commensal microorganisms in inflammation resolution, tissue regeneration, and barrier restoration, and discusses potential microbiota-based therapies for improving wound management.

The researchers reported that PPARβ/δ may influence the yak hair follicle cycle by modulating lipid metabolism in dermal papilla cells, with varying expression during different hair growth phases, affecting both lipid content and cell proliferation.

This study found that both dark and white dromedary camels exhibited high medullation in hair fibers, suggesting adaptations for insulation and heat dissipation in hot desert environments.

This study found that using composite alginate hydrogels containing Aloe vera, CMC, and tragacanth can improve the encapsulation efficiency and protect pumpkin seed protein hydrolysates from degradation during simulated gastrointestinal digestion, potentially increasing their applicability as functional food components.

This study concluded that sex, nutrition, and season did not affect the general quality of the hair coat in housed European short-haired laboratory cats, particularly in terms of hair regrowth.

This study reviews the complex keratinization process in the epidermis, detailing how various factors regulate keratinocyte differentiation and emphasizing the importance of understanding this process for the pathogenesis of skin disorders like ichthyoses and psoriasis.

This study examined sheltered and adopted domestic cats, finding that dark coat color and living environment significantly influence hair cortisol and DHEA levels as stress indicators, while age and sex do not; adoption was associated with reduced long-term stress, underscoring its benefits for feline welfare.

This study identified the FGF5:c.578C>T variant as linked to long hair in Akitas in Japan and suggests that genetic testing could help improve their breeding practices and welfare.

An artificial lipid barrier can restore hair growth in cases of SCD1 deficiency.

This study analyzed the nanotribological properties of various hair types and human skin, revealing differences in friction and adhesion based on ethnicity and hair 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.

In this study, the researchers measured and discussed the friction and wear properties of various hair types against synthetic skin and other hair, finding variations based on factors like ethnicity, hair condition, and environmental conditions.

This study provides evidence that five Hyp-O-GALT genes are crucial for AGP galactosylation and that AGP glycans are vital for various aspects of plant growth and development.

This publication provides a standardized nomenclature for classifying microscopic lesions in laboratory rat and mouse skin, aiming to harmonize international toxicological research.
