This study analyzed gene expression in Pashmina goats and identified key biological processes and molecular functions involved in long-fibre production, suggesting potential pathways for enhancing this trait in other goat breeds.

This chapter reviews the clinical features and diagnostic information for various skin diseases in sheep but reports no new research results.

This study found that PT-LCG extends hair follicle activity and promotes continuous cashmere growth by enhancing lipid synthesis, remodeling the extracellular matrix, and modulating inflammatory signaling, offering insights into improving cashmere yield and quality through molecular breeding.

This study identified a primitive coarse wool characteristic in Merino sheep that enhances environmental adaptability and fine wool yield without reducing quality, suggesting that epigenetic mechanisms, particularly involving the imprinted Gtl2-miRNAs locus, regulate this advantageous trait.

In this study, researchers found that the FoxN1, FoxE1, and FoxI3 genes are likely involved in hair follicle growth and development in cashmere goat fetuses.

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.

This letter reports on a case of intractable ophiasis-type alopecia areata that was presumably improved by fexofenadine, but no new clinical results are presented.

In this study, researchers conducted whole-genome resequencing of eight sheep breeds to identify additional genes associated with wool fineness, revealing 269 genes in fine wool and 319 in coarse wool breeds that are linked to significant traits and pathways.

This study found that milk protein grafting and cross-linking treatment significantly improved the pilling resistance of rabbit hair knitted fabric.

This study investigated the molecular mechanisms behind cashmere goat coat types by analyzing gene expression during hair follicle development stages, identifying regulatory pathways involved in metabolism, immune response, and the quiescent state of follicles, potentially aiding in genetic selection for improved cashmere production.

This study identified 1277 genomic regions selected for traits in indigenous Chinese goats, including cashmere fiber, reproduction, size, and high-altitude adaptation, revealing key candidate genes for these phenotypes through whole-genome resequencing.

This study found that a higher relative expression of the keratin associated protein 8.1 gene in Liaoning cashmere goats' skin and hair follicles was associated with thinner cashmere fiber.

This study observed distinct changes in the ultrastructure of Hexi cashmere goat hair follicles throughout the year, highlighting stages with specific cellular and structural characteristics.

This study found that overexpression of the FA2H gene in cashmere goats' hair follicle cells may enhance hair proliferation and regulate genes affecting cashmere fineness.

This study reports two cases of alopecia areata that responded to the antihistamine fexofenadine.

This study observed that pelage development in male blue foxes born in early June was more synchronized than those born in early May, with differences likely influenced by melatonin levels.

This study conclusively demonstrated that in Merino fetuses, secondary follicle initiation is completed several weeks before birth, with a peak 16 days prior and lower levels observed at and after birth.

This study identifies a strong association between a 505-bp indel mutation in the FGF5 gene and cashmere growth in goats, suggesting potential use as a genetic marker in breeding programs.

This study developed a quantitative method using SDS-PAGE and MALDI-TOF mass spectroscopy to accurately determine animal species from hair fibers, validated against standard samples and optical microscopy.

This paper conducts a scientific evaluation of fine hair issues in American bovine hides and suggests measures to minimize this seasonal problem, particularly in winter production.

This study found that the formation of the fibre cuticle surface in Merino sheep is similar to the epidermal stratum corneum process and not from a modified plasma membrane as previously thought.

This study highlights that dyeing and other processing methods can impact the identification of animal species from hair fibers using an amino acid sequence analysis technique.

This study found that treating cats infested with Lynxacarus radovskyi using Fipronil resulted in complete resolution of the infestation by day 15.

This study analyzed RNA-seq data from various animal breeds and suggested that similar molecular mechanisms may underlie wool fineness in different sheep breeds. Researchers identified 32 candidate genes related to hair follicle regulation, providing insights for molecular breeding and evolutionary studies.

In this study, researchers identified specific gene polymorphisms in Subo Merino sheep that significantly affect wool traits, suggesting these genetic markers could aid in breeding high-quality fine-wool sheep.

This study generated FGF5-knockout Dorper sheep using the CRISPR/Cas9 system, resulting in significantly increased fine-wool and active hair-follicle density, and explored downstream signaling pathways for potential applications in androgen alopecia treatment.

This study analyzed circular RNA expression in the developing skin of foetal Gansu Alpine fine-wool sheep, identifying key circRNAs potentially involved in secondary follicle development through regulatory networks, providing insights for wool trait improvement.

This study found that supplementing pregnant cashmere goats' diets according to nutritional standards improved their fiber production, growth, fertility, and the development of kids' secondary hair follicles.

This study found that wool fiber surfaces damaged in processing tended to have cellular debris adhering to them, while undamaged surfaces did not show this interaction.

This study identified 4,942 differentially expressed genes between Jiangnan cashmere goats and Changthangi pashmina goats, enriching pathways like PI3K-Akt and thermogenesis, which may influence cashmere fiber quality, offering insights for their genetic improvement.
