This case report highlights two instances of alopecia areata, demonstrating diverse presentations, and suggests upadacitinib as a promising treatment option, resulting in hair regrowth within 3–6 months, without worsening sarcoidosis-related skin lesions.

This review discusses the dual role of extracellular vesicles in Alzheimer's disease, highlighting their potential in both exacerbating and alleviating the condition, and emphasizes the need for advanced technologies to enhance diagnosis and treatment.

This study found that a novel pet food formulation significantly improved the management of feline atopic skin syndrome by reducing symptom severity and medication dependence over six months in client-owned cats, compared to a control diet.

This study found that extracellular vesicles derived from hyaluronic acid-stimulated induced pluripotent stem cells significantly improved hair growth in a model of androgenetic alopecia in mice by enhancing Wnt/β-catenin signaling and regulating androgen receptor activity, showing comparable results to the commonly used treatment finasteride.

In this review, the authors reported that exosomal miRNA-based therapies showed promising therapeutic effects on nine skin diseases in animal models, with enhanced outcomes observed when using miRNA-overexpressing exosomes compared to natural ones; however, no comparisons to standard treatments were available.

This review discusses the biologically active compounds in Maxillariinae orchids, highlighting 62 semiochemicals with medical potential, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the use of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) for treating skin diseases and suggests they show promise for improving conditions like wounds and scleroderma, but more research is needed due to varied study designs and endpoints.

This review discusses the role of mTOR signaling in the epidermis, emphasizing its importance in skin processes like barrier formation and wound repair, and reports no new experimental results.

This review summarizes recent findings on how the dysregulated PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway contributes to immune-mediated inflammatory skin disorders and discusses the potential of natural products, synthetic compounds, and biologic agents in their treatment. However, it emphasizes the need for further research to develop effective therapies.

This study found that intradermal injections of Profhilo® significantly reduced skin inflammation and pain, while altering spinal cord markers in mice with ovalbumin-induced atopic dermatitis, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits for inflammatory skin conditions involving both peripheral and central processes.

This case report describes a dog suffering from dermatophytosis, a zoonotic fungal infection common in warm and humid climates, with alopecia noted in the neck region and the tip of the ear.

This study observed an outbreak of dermatophytosis caused by Trichophyton species in farmed mink in the USA, affecting primarily dark-colored kits with skin lesions.

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 case report describes two guinea pigs infested with Acarus farris mites, which were successfully treated with Phoxim and removal of contaminated hay, leading to rapid resolution of skin lesions and alopecia.

This article discusses dermatophycosis, a fungal infection affecting various animals, and outlines its transmission, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention methods, but reports no new research findings.

This descriptive study observed that a "moth-eaten" pattern of hair loss can occur in several skin diseases, with lichen planopilaris and discoid lupus erythematosus being among the most common conditions identified in patients from Baghdad, emphasizing its potential as a diagnostic tool for clinicians.

This case study reports a new variant of chronic dermatophytosis with giant cutaneous horns, suggesting a possible genetic link and highlighting successful treatment with antifungal medications.

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

In this study of sheep across various breeds and ages, researchers found that Trichophyton mentagrophytes caused severe dermatophytosis, especially affecting young Shahbadi sheep during winter, leading to notable anemia and skin lesions.

This article reviews approaches to diagnosing and treating dermatophytosis and pityriasis versicolor, noting a significant change in the epidemiology of tinea capitis and highlighting the limitations of certain diagnostic techniques.

In this study, mixed lice infestations and their associated skin changes were observed in the Egyptian lesser blind mole rat, marking the first report of such findings in this species.

This study highlights that dermatophytosis, a common fungal skin infection in cats, caused by Microsporum and Trichophyton species, typically resolves on its own but may be more severe in immunocompromised individuals and young animals.

This study found that human hair shows more susceptibility to perforation by Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Trichophyton verrucosum compared to animal hair, with black human hair serving as a reliable diagnostic tool for differentiation between the two species.

This study reported a case of equine ringworm infection in a 2-year-old horse caused by Nannizzia gypsea, confirmed through culture and SYBR-Green real-time PCR techniques, demonstrating that qPCR allows specific detection of dermatophytes more rapidly than conventional methods.

This study observed that dermatophytosis, primarily caused by fungi like M. canis, is the most common fungal skin infection in cats, often resolving spontaneously except in young or immunocompromised animals.

This study found that although Stephanofilaria infection worsens buffalo fly lesion severity, other factors like bacterial infection and hypersensitivity to buffalo fly feeding also play significant roles.

This review covers the epidemiology, causes, prevention, treatment, and prognosis of dermatophytoses and reports no new clinical results.

In this case series, cats infested with Lynxacarus radovskyi developed self-induced alopecia similar to flea allergic dermatitis, primarily affecting the perianal area.
