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 observed that increasing dietary vitamin C in capybaras significantly improved their skin, coat, and weight, though other nutrients might also have contributed to their improved condition.

This review discusses rabbit domestication and genetics, focusing on factors influencing hair coat development, and reports no new findings; the authors highlight the potential for genetic insights to enhance rabbit breeding.

This study found trilostane to be an effective and generally safe treatment for improving symptoms in dogs with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism.

This study found that puppies fed organic selenium had better retention of selenium compared to those fed inorganic selenium, with no significant difference in coat quality or hair growth.

In this study, cats fed trace minerals complexed with lysine and glutamic acid displayed temporary improvements in hair loss and dander scores at 45 days, compared to those receiving inorganic trace minerals, although no differences were seen by day 90.

This study observed significant differences in hair and cashmere properties among three goat breeds in Southwest China, noting better quality cashmere in Inner Mongolia cashmere goats and their crossbreed compared to Dazu black goats.

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.

In this study, researchers analyzed hair follicle development in Yongqing Rex rabbits, finding dynamic changes in fur thickness, coat density, and hair structure across 1 to 6 months, along with fluctuations in follicle density and gene expression linked to hair growth and quality.

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 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 found that environmental conditions significantly influenced rabbit coat quality, while dietary linseed oil supplementation changed the fatty acid profile but did not improve coat thickness or heat protection.

The study reported that mice receiving dynamized Melatonin 6 cH and Lissotriton 6 cH for 14 days exhibited improved coat health and increased endurance in forced swimming tests, with Melatonin-treated mice swimming 2.5 times longer and Lissotriton-treated mice 4 times longer than controls.

This study found that the skin and coat scoring protocol for dogs is most reliable when the same person assesses greasiness and glossiness over time.

This study found that applications of a shampoo and mousse containing plant extracts improved coat quality in dogs with a chronic keratinisation disorder without affecting skin hydration or hair lipids over the study period.

This study observed that deslorelin acetate implants reduced sexual activity and improved coat quality in a German Spitz dog with alopecia X, suggesting its potential as a less invasive and reversible treatment for managing reproductive function and this dermatopathy.

Three related Persian cats have a rare, likely hereditary skin condition causing hair loss and poor coat quality, with limited treatment options.

This study identified various non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) and mRNAs differentially expressed in skin tissues of two coat types of Jinlan Cashmere Goats, suggesting potential regulatory networks that could inform precision breeding strategies to improve cashmere quality and yield.

This case study reported that after removal of an interstitial cell tumor from a ruffed lemur, the animal experienced improved coat quality and a return to normal behavior without signs of cancer spread.

This study demonstrated that herbal therapy with oil extract increased triglyceride content in dog hair, suggesting potential benefits on coat quality that require further investigation.

This study found that dogs with alopecia treated with platelet-rich plasma in addition to conventional therapy experienced faster hair regrowth, better coat quality, and higher recovery rates compared to conventional therapy alone.

In a 14.5-year-old lemur, this study found that removing a testicle with an interstitial cell tumor improved coat quality and reduced aggression, with no signs of metastasis observed post-surgery.

This review examines nutrient-responsive dermatoses in companion animals and reports no new results, highlighting that improved diet quality can enhance skin and hair coat health.

This study identified several genetic variants associated with cattle hair coat length, which may help breed more heat-tolerant animals by facilitating efficient heat loss.

In this study, researchers analyzed skin tissues from two types of Jinlan Cashmere Goats and identified crucial non-coding RNA mechanisms potentially impacting cashmere yield, revealing significant DE lncRNAs, mRNA expressions, and pathways relevant to cashmere quality improvement.

This study reports that in Rex rabbits, age affects fur quality and hair follicle traits, with the Wnt signaling pathway playing a role in their periodic hair follicle development.

This study used whole-genome resequencing to analyze genetic diversity and selection in 17 rabbit breeds, identifying genes linked to traits like coat color and body size, which could inform breeding and conservation efforts.

In this study, clinicians are advised to perform trichography regularly on Pomeranians with HCA, as significant hair abnormalities, especially TN, may affect hair quality; further research is needed to understand the underlying mechanisms and treatment options.

This study found that the GhDET2 gene plays a crucial role in cotton fiber initiation and elongation, suggesting that modifying brassinosteroid biosynthesis may enhance fiber quality or yield.

In this study, researchers found that the keratin-associated protein 36-1 gene (KRTAP36-1) allele C is linked to variations in mean fibre curvature of fine wool in Chinese Tan lambs, suggesting its role in their distinctive curly coat.
