Microsporum canis breaks down animal hair fastest in sheep and foxes, slowest in humans.

This study suggests that hereditary hyperplastic gingivitis in silver foxes may involve the MAPK signaling pathway, with potential androgen effects influencing disease severity.

In this study, adding disinfected feathers to the diet of captive Arctic foxes increased gut bacterial species diversity without changing overall abundance, potentially influencing immune response and physiological performance.

This report describes a rare case of severe combined immunodeficiency caused by a FOXN1 gene variant, complicated by Epstein-Barr virus infection and high-grade B-cell lymphoma, leading to the infant's death despite treatment efforts.

This study found that a compound additive improved the growth and fur quality of blue foxes, with a 28.7% increase in weight gain and longer pelt lengths compared to the control group.

This study in mice found that MEIS2 expression in mesenchymal dermal cells is crucial for the formation of whiskers and the initial steps of epithelial placode development, independently of sensory nerve innervation or Foxd1 expression.

This study identified significant differences in medullary structure, hair length, and root diameter among dorsal guard hairs of red foxes, golden jackals, and gray wolves in Turkey.

In this study conducted in Ilam province, Iran, researchers found that 19.35% of red foxes and 17.85% of jackals were infested with at least one type of ectoparasite, primarily Ctenocephalides canis.

This study found super-contraction in the guard hairs of fur-bearing animals, likely due to oxidation in living animals, primarily affecting white and red foxes without prior heat or chemical treatment.

This study found that MEIS2 expression in neural crest-derived cells is crucial for whisker and trigeminal nerve development in the mesenchyme, indicating an early role in epithelial placode formation and dermal condensation, independent of sensory innervation or Foxd1 expression.

This research describes a crucial role for Meis2 expression in mesenchymal cells derived from the neural crest for whisker formation, showing that whiskers can develop without sensory innervation or FOXD1 expression, highlighting an early function of MEIS2.

This study found that T cell-deficient mice developed distinct papilloma phenotypes after MmuPV1 infection, and hyperimmune sera transfer could prevent this infection.

This study found that an adult female farm-raised blue fox exhibited an abnormal hair growth cycle and seasonal estradiol variation, with a delayed winter coat cycle resulting in spring shedding.

This study found that Krtap11-1 may play an important role in keratin-bundle assembly in the hair cortex, influencing the physical properties of hair.

This study reports that a new nude allele, nu(StL), encodes a truncated Whn transcription factor affecting T-cell development and keratin gene expression, with notable differences from the original Whn(nu) mutation.

In this study, researchers found that quiescent stem cells resist immune attack due to downregulated antigen presentation, which may help explain the immune evasion of early cancer-initiating cells.

This study found that TAp63 and ΔNp63 isoforms in the p63 family interact with different transcription factors to regulate distinct transcriptional programs, affecting various biological functions like metabolic pathways, oxidative stress response, and epithelial morphogenesis in mouse epidermal cells.

This study suggests that specific genetic changes, including mutations in protein-coding genes and noncoding regions, have contributed to the evolution of hairlessness in multiple mammalian species.

This study demonstrated that the human thymus contains clonogenic thymic epithelial cells capable of self-renewal and maintaining a thymic phenotype in a specific culture system.

This study identified a genetic variant in the SGK3 gene related to hairlessness in Scottish Deerhounds, suggesting a similar role for androgen-independent hair loss in humans.

The document explains the causes, types, diagnosis, and treatments of hair loss, and its psychological impact, especially on women.

This reference list, part of a book by Alex Gough, Alison Thomas, and Dan O'Neill, compiles citations from veterinary journals on various canine and feline health issues, but reports no new research findings.

This review discusses how Western diet may contribute to acne vulgaris through insulin signaling and metabolomic changes, promoting a dietary approach for management, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that transcriptome profiling of cashmere goat skin revealed key genes and pathways involved in hair follicle initiation, differentiation, and maturation, which are critical for improving fleece production.

Scientists turned rat thymus cells into stem cells that can help repair skin and hair.

This study found that patients with acne vulgaris had higher serum IGF-1 levels and more intense FoxO1 and mTOR expression than controls, suggesting their role in acne pathogenesis.

This study demonstrates that canonical Wnt signaling is crucial for maintaining thymic epithelial microenvironments in postnatal thymus, possibly by affecting TEC progenitor cells.

In this study, synthetic vitamin D3 analogs stimulated hair growth and formation of normal hair follicles in nude mice, unlike the natural form 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3.

This article reviews potential animal models for studying androgenetic alopecia and reports no new experimental results; the authors highlight the need for further development of rodent models.

This review discusses the paracrine properties of cardiac stem cells and pericytes in regenerative medicine for ischaemic diseases and reports no new clinical results.
