,
January 2020 in “Recent Patents on Inflammation & Allergy Drug Discovery” In this article review, it was reported that systemic oral antifungal treatments are essential for effectively managing tinea capitis, as topical antifungals alone cannot reach the hair follicle roots but may reduce spore transmission when used alongside oral medications.
47 citations
,
May 1994 in “Experimental Brain Research” This study observed that innervation of the mystacial pad in rats by fine-caliber axons is more extensive and complex than previously described, with distinct differences in labeling patterns depending on the tracer and survival time.

July 2023 in “Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology” This study discovered that lambs with coarse, ancestral-like wool in a population of modern fine wool sheep exhibited overexpression of the SOSTDC1 gene, linked to epigenetic changes, which helps understand the development and diversification of wool types in sheep breeding.
December 2024 in “Veterinary Sciences” In this study of Zhexi Angora rabbits, researchers found that the fine-wool group exhibited lower fiber diameters and a higher hair follicle density than the coarse-wool group, and they identified key candidate genes potentially regulating wool quality through RNA-seq and genome resequencing techniques.
