This study indicates that MPZL3 negatively regulates sebaceous gland size in mice by controlling sebocyte proliferation, with implications for disorders like acne and psoriasis.

This report describes two cases of tinea capitis in young siblings, with cultures showing M. canis and Rhodotorulla, and notes improvement after treatment with ketoconazole lotion and shampoo for two months.

This review examines the potential pathogenicity of Demodex mites in skin disorders, considering systemic factors like immunological imbalance and microbiome changes, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study identified specific genes upregulated in skin γδ T cells involved in alopecia areata, with findings suggesting these cells contribute to disease pathogenesis through inflammatory and Th1 response mechanisms in mouse and possibly human skin.

This review discusses the challenges and potential solutions in studying Demodex mites and their possible pathogenic role in human skin disorders but reports no new findings.

This review elaborates on the concept of cutaneous mosaicism and its link to acneiform conditions, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study confirmed that a rare dermatophyte infection in a young cat was caused by Arthroderma gypseum, identified using molecular analyses.

This case study reports a new variant of chronic dermatophytosis with giant cutaneous horns, suggesting a possible genetic link and highlighting successful treatment with antifungal medications.

This study identified a new Demodex species causing demodicosis in a zoo koala, successfully treated with daily oral ivermectin.

This study suggests that linalool, a common allergen in personal care products, may contribute to frontal fibrosing alopecia pathogenesis by triggering immune responses and depleting hair follicle stem cells, especially in sensitized individuals.

This study reports improvement in tinea capitis symptoms in two siblings after two months of treatment with ketoconazole lotion and shampoo, following initial findings of M. canis and Rhodotorulla infections.

This study found that applications of a shampoo and mousse containing plant extracts improved coat quality in dogs with a chronic keratinisation disorder without affecting skin hydration or hair lipids over the study period.

This study reports a case of ringworm in a Chinchilla lanigera, attributed to stress and contact with canine material contaminated with Microsporum canis.

This study found that trichostasis spinulosa was present in some seborrheic keratoses, indicating they may partly originate from hair follicle cells.

This case study reported a diagnosis of dermatophytic pseudomycetoma in a Persian cat with dermal nodules, highlighting potential heritable predisposition and suggesting systemic antifungal therapy for fair prognosis.

This report describes effective treatment of demodicosis in ferrets using amitraz, marking the first known cases in this species.

This article reviews approaches to diagnosing and treating dermatophytosis and pityriasis versicolor, noting a significant change in the epidemiology of tinea capitis and highlighting the limitations of certain diagnostic techniques.

This study found that alopecia in captive Rhesus macaques may be linked to chronic hypersensitivity dermatitis with CD4+ cell inflammation, possibly influenced by altered housing and reduced pathogen exposure.

A gene mutation in mice causes increased mast cells and disorganized hair follicles in their skin.

This study found that Pityriasis amiantacea was associated with Staphylococcus aureus infection, especially in young women of Bedouin origin, and responded well to antibiotic and topical treatments.

This study reported the presence of dermatophyte macroconidia directly in clinical samples from a 3-year-old boy with tinea capitis, marking the first time this has been documented. The infection, caused by Microsporum ferrugineum, was successfully treated with systemic itraconazole and topical ketoconazole shampoo.

Linalool in personal care products may worsen frontal fibrosing alopecia by damaging hair follicle stem cells and triggering harmful immune responses.

This case series suggests that Propionibacterium acnes colonization may contribute to the development of hair casts and diffuse non-scarring alopecia, as patients' symptoms improved with antibiotics targeting the bacteria.

This study observed that dermatophytosis, primarily caused by fungi like M. canis, is the most common fungal skin infection in cats, often resolving spontaneously except in young or immunocompromised animals.

This study found that in mice with alopecia areata, CD8+ T cells showed clonal expansion and specific regulatory networks, which might help identify new therapeutic targets for patients not responding to JAK inhibitors.

This study found that in a mouse model of psoriasis, depleting CD169⁺ macrophages led to milder symptoms and decreased inflammation, suggesting these macrophages play a crucial role in psoriasis development.

This study found that innate lymphoid cells-type 1 can induce alopecia areata characteristics in human hair follicles both ex vivo and in vivo, challenging the view of it as solely an autoimmune disease driven by CD8+ T cells.

This study found that current clinical, microscopic, and laboratory analyses did not reliably distinguish Alaskan malamutes with coat funk from normal dogs, indicating more research with larger samples is needed.

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.

In this case report, Trichophyton rubrum was isolated from a dog with dermatophytosis, and treatment with ketoconazole shampoo and oral itraconazole led to complete healing and no recurrence in follow-up.
