This case report details a 10-year-old boy diagnosed with kerion celsi caused by Microsporum gypseum, successfully treated with itraconazole over 4.5 months.

In this study, the researchers used the dual-flow-RootChip to show that Arabidopsis roots can locally adapt their hair development in response to asymmetric phosphate conditions.

This case study identified Geotrichum candidum as a cause of skin lesions in a horse following extended corticosteroid or antibiotic use, noting the importance of thorough diagnosis and specific antifungal treatment to improve symptoms.

This dissertation reveals that FERONIA, a cell wall-binding receptor kinase, plays a crucial role in regulating plant functions such as sugar signaling, pollen tube reception, and RAC/ROP-mediated auxin signaling.

In this case report, researchers identified Arthroderma vanbreuseghemii as the cause of a familial fungal infection, which was successfully treated with itraconazole and topical terbinafine cream.

This study found that higher doses of zinc increased cell growth but also induced cell death in human follicle dermal papilla cells, suggesting a narrow dosage range may affect hair regrowth.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome in South India had higher body mass index, waist/hip ratio, and elevated levels of several hormones compared to controls, and waist/hip ratio may be a better risk indicator than body mass index.

In this case report, the authors describe a female dog with alopecia in the neck and ear region, affected by dermatophytosis caused by the zoophilic fungus Microsporum canis, highlighting its zoonotic potential and prevalence in certain climates.

This study found that treatment with Bacillus amyloliquefaciens UCMB5113 significantly increased root hair growth in half of the tested Arabidopsis thaliana accessions.

In this case report, a 48-year-old woman with kerion celsi showed improvement with a regimen including antifungal, bacterial, and adjunctive treatments, though the specific role of mesenchymal stromal cell secretome could not be isolated from the other therapies.

In this study, researchers examined 1,000 South Asian patients misusing topical corticosteroids for dermatophytosis and found that this misuse resulted in atypical, chronic, and recurrent fungal infections called steroid-modified dermatophytosis, often involving extensive and atypical skin presentations.

This review highlights Malassezia's dual role as both protective and pathogenic within the hair follicle ecosystem, noting its involvement in skin disorders and potential cancer progression, and calls for further studies to develop targeted treatments for related conditions.

This case report describes a 78-year-old farmer with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis who developed cutaneous Alternaria alternata infections, which improved with reduced prednisolone and itraconazole treatment, with no recurrence after two years.

This paper reviews the pathogenesis of dermatophytosis in cats and discusses diagnostic methods and treatment needs without reporting new clinical results.

This document reviews various types of microbes, their roles in fermentation and diseases, and strategies for protection against microbial infections, but presents no new research findings.

This study found that low temperatures and nitrogen deficiency trigger root hair elongation through a molecular mechanism involving the receptor kinase FERONIA and the TOR Complex 1.

This study presents the first reported case of kerion-type scalp mycosis caused by Aspergillus protuberus, emphasizing the importance of mycological examination when diagnosing unusual scalp infections, especially in children.

In this case report, a female mixed-breed dog was observed with dermatophytosis, presenting with alopecia in the neck and ear, highlighting the zoonotic nature of the infection caused by fungi that can affect both animals and humans.

This study suggests that paeoniflorin's protective effects on brain astrocytes may be mediated by TSPO and neurosteroids biosynthesis.

This study introduced the dual-flow-RootChip platform to demonstrate that Arabidopsis roots exhibit non-autonomous adaptations, such as hair growth regulation, when subjected to varied environmental conditions on opposite sides.

This case report describes a renal transplant patient with tinea capitis, revealing a fungal infection from Microsporum canis linked to her dogs, which resolved after treatment for both the patient and animals.

This case report reviews panfolliculoma, a rare benign follicular tumor, highlighting its occurrence and characteristics, and emphasizes the importance of accurate histopathological differentiation to avoid misdiagnosis.

This study found that Piedraia hortae invades and damages human hair by slowly degrading keratin in the cortex, which may contribute to the fungus's persistence and the chronic nature of the infection.

In this case study of a 64-year-old woman with kerion celsi caused by Microsporum canis, treatment with the oral antifungal fosravuconazole resulted in symptom resolution without scarring or side effects over 12 weeks, suggesting its potential effectiveness for various dermatomycoses.

In a Romanian wildlife rehabilitation center, this study reported that dermatophytosis affected northern white-breasted hedgehogs, with 77.4% of the 31 treated cases responding favorably to a 14-day itraconazole regimen, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and treatment.

This study found that the MsPG3-GFP fusion protein accumulates at the growing root hair tips in Medicago plants, suggesting its role in tip growth during symbiosis.

This review discusses cases of ringworm of the scalp, highlighting the potential for spontaneous cure when the infection is caused by an organism pathogenic to animals, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Demodex mites may transport Microsporum canis spores on human skin, suggesting a potential role in microbial movement despite typically being considered harmless.

This study highlights the challenges in treating Microsporum canis infections due to variable antifungal drug efficacy and potential resistance, emphasizing the need for standardized methods to assess drug susceptibility.

In this case study, a 20-year-old man with dermatitis initially misdiagnosed as caused by Herpes simplex was found to have a fungal infection, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, and successfully treated with oral terbinafine and ketoconazole products.
