COVID-19 can cause different types of hair loss, with telogen effluvium being the most common.

This study reports that hair samples can be used to track chronic hormone levels, revealing stress, reproductive, and sodium regulation patterns in wildebeest related to environmental factors.

This study found that in a mouse model of Focal Dermal Hypoplasia, treatment with lithium carbonate improved skin disease symptoms compared to controls, though disease severity varied and posed interpretation challenges.

This editorial discusses the need for continued research on animal fibers, highlighting recent advances in the field and the impact of economic factors favoring meat over fiber production on research volume.

This study found that wool felting in Ukrainian Carpathian Mountain sheep is linked to significant changes in fatty acid composition, particularly highlighting a decrease in 18-methyleicosanoic acid in bound lipids, suggesting it as a potential marker for cuticle lipid layer damage during felting.

In this study, TGFβR I was more highly expressed in alpaca ear skin than in back skin, suggesting it may inhibit coat hair growth, with let-7b downregulating TGFβR I protein through transcriptional repression.

This study successfully constructed a skin cDNA library from the Liaoning cashmere goat during follicle anagen and identified two genes with significant expression in heart, skin, and hair follicles.

This case report describes a presumptive case of ichthyosis fetalis in a cross-bred lamb and highlights the need for this rare condition in sheep to be considered by veterinarians in the differential diagnosis of dermatopathies.

This study suggests that the CXCL8 gene may regulate cashmere fineness in Liaoning cashmere goats, providing new insights into the cellular mechanisms of cashmere growth and quality.

This review examines the factors influencing the formation of lamb skin in Tan sheep, highlighting the role of follicle development and gene regulation but reports no new experimental findings.

In this study, researchers identified ten key genes involved in the periodic development of hair follicles in cashmere goats, highlighting the importance of the Wnt signaling pathway and cell cycle in this process.

This study found that melatonin treatment in Cashmere goat kids enhances the density of secondary hair follicles and improves Cashmere quality by regulating the MAPK pathway and reducing cell apoptosis.

This study identified several candidate genes related to wool production traits and adaptation to hot, arid environments in Iranian sheep, highlighting potential targets for future inbreeding programs.

This study found that fibroblast growth factor 5 may enhance Cashmere goat hair growth by altering the expression of specific genes related to keratin and keratin-associated proteins.

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.

This study reveals that long non-coding RNAs influence cashmere fiber traits in goats by interacting with target genes involved in pathways affecting fiber diameter and color.

This study successfully cloned and characterized the LEF-1 gene from Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats, potentially aiding efforts to enhance cashmere production through genetic modification.

This study found that camel hair from Afif has suitable physical and chemical properties for textile production and its characteristics can be enhanced with chemical additives like acetic acid.

Rabbit hair fibers are similar to wool and have a hollow center like feathers.

This study found that the finer fibers of Alpas cashmere, compared to ordinary cashmere, are associated with the down-regulation of specific keratins and keratin-associated proteins, suggesting a molecular target for breeding cashmere goats with improved fiber quality.

This study identified key proteins, FKBP10 and FBN2, that promote the growth cycle of secondary hair follicles in cashmere goats, with higher expression in the anagen phase, offering insights into mechanisms potentially enhancing cashmere yield and quality.

This study found significant differences in cashmere fiber diameters between two groups of cashmere goats and identified 211 genes and 50 metabolites related to hair follicle growth and cellular functions, suggesting potential pathways to improve cashmere quality.

This study identified genes that may regulate cashmere fineness in Liaoning Cashmere Goats by analyzing skin cell types and exploring gene expression in secondary hair follicle dermal papilla cells.

This study identified important lncRNAs and genes associated with cashmere shedding in goats and explored their regulatory interactions, providing insights into the molecular mechanisms that may underlie this phenomenon.

In this study, specific SNPs in the FST gene were significantly associated with various wool quality traits in Chinese Merino sheep, suggesting potential markers for breeding programs.

This study found that melatonin upregulates LncRNA16913.1, which sequesters chi-miR-195-5p to release FZD6 and enhance fibroblast proliferation in cashmere goat skin, suggesting a regulatory mechanism within the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA cascade in vitro.

This study identified genetic differences between Australian White Sheep and Hu Sheep that may explain their distinct pelage types, with a focus on subcutaneous adiposity and immunoregulation. The findings suggest potential targets for breeding climate-resilient sheep, enhancing our understanding of heat tolerance in these breeds.
