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 observed an outbreak of dermatophytosis caused by Trichophyton species in farmed mink in the USA, affecting primarily dark-colored kits with skin lesions.

This study found that topical treatment with Maneb led to delayed epithelial cell degeneration in hair follicles of rats due to apoptosis.

This study in Ramgati, Bangladesh, found that coastal residents perceive extreme temperatures and high water salinity from climate change as causing various health issues, including heat-related illnesses and maternal health problems, with older individuals and those perceiving a higher risk more affected.

This study found that a significant number of boreal woodland caribou in NE British Columbia showed symptoms of trace mineral deficiencies and exposure to various pathogens, with substantial winter tick infestations affecting a majority of individuals.

This study suggests that dermal adipocytes play a significant role in skin aging, particularly through the process of adipocyte-myofibroblast transition, highlighting them as potential targets to combat aging in chronically photo-damaged skin.

This study investigated differences in gene expression in the mammary glands of SLICK and wild-type Holstein cattle, finding limited differences overall but identifying enriched pathways related to arachidonic acid metabolism and oxytocin production, which merit further exploration.

The researchers reported that the net mineral requirements for weight gain in Morada Nova lambs differ from commonly recommended values by the Agricultural and Food Research Council.

This study found that mange-infected bare-nosed wombats have increased heat loss, higher metabolic rates, altered behavior, and disrupted fatty acid composition compared to healthy individuals.

The researchers found that combining permethrin (44%) and fluralaner effectively reduced tick load in moose calves, as indicated by less severe hair loss, compared to untreated calves, while topical permethrin (5%) alone had no clear effect on tick load, body mass, or hematocrit.

This study described two cases of trichoblastomas in the tactile hair skin of aged house musk shrews, highlighting that their histological structure differs from that in humans and other animals.

In this study, melatonin supplementation in cattle during mid to late gestation decreased the temperature of unshaved skin areas but did not affect rectal temperature or body weight.

In this study, researchers found that exosomes derived from Pinctada martensii mucus can effectively inhibit melanin production in melanoma cells and zebrafish without adverse effects, potentially offering a promising therapeutic strategy for treating pigmentary disorders by modulating the NF-κB signaling pathway.

This study isolated new geranylated coumarins from Mammea siamensis flowers and found that several of these compounds inhibit testosterone 5α-reductase.

This study found that sarcoptic mange significantly decreased vicuña and guanaco populations in San Guillermo National Park, Argentina, likely originating from mange-infected llama introduced nearby, raising the risk of local extinction.

This study found that high-resolution tusk isotope profiles from an African elephant can serve as a proxy for the seasonality of diet and precipitation, helping to reconstruct vegetation and climate in modern and fossil ecosystems.

This observational study identified L. infantum infection in meerkats housed in two zoological parks in Madrid, marking the first such report for this species, though the disease persisted in one individual despite treatment.

In this report, the researchers described a follicular dysplastic syndrome in two adult white-tailed deer, where gross alopecia and histologic signs suggestive of alopecia areata were observed, potentially predisposing affected deer to environmental exposure.

In this case study of a Beetal doe with severe skin lesions, the researchers diagnosed concurrent psoroptic mange and malasseziosis, and reported successful treatment with a combination of Ivermectin, antibiotics, and topical applications, leading to reduced skin lesions and new hair growth.

This study found that Sox9, Caveolin1, and Androgen receptor genes are expressed in both skin tissues and musk glands of Chinese forest musk deer, suggesting their importance in these tissues.

The abstract highlights that a thorough physical examination, including specific considerations like umbilical examination and joint palpation, is crucial for diagnosing and managing the health of neonatal ruminants, as reported in this guide for veterinarians.

In this study, mange lesions with alopecia and crusts in masked palm civets in Japan were caused by the mite Notoedres cati.

This study reports a case of hepatogenic photosensitization in a 22-day-old lactating Tabapuã calf, induced by toxins ingested via breast milk from a mother fed Brachiaria decumbens pasture; treatment including pasture removal and medicinal intervention led to symptom remission.

In this case study, a miniature donkey with multisystemic eosinophilic epitheliotropic disease was euthanized due to laminitis despite treatment for pruritus, inappetence, hypertriglyceridemia, and alopecia.

This study reports that a sarcoptic mange outbreak, likely originating from mange-infected llamas from a governmental program, dramatically reduced vicuña and guanaco populations in San Guillermo National Park, Argentina.

This study describes the pelage cycle, hair types, and molt patterns in black-tailed deer, highlighting significant differences in hair properties among various developmental stages and populations.

This study reported intra-familial transmission of Arthroderma benhamiae among Canadian porcupines in a Japanese zoo, with genetic sequences previously undocumented in Japan or the GenBank database.

In this case report, a 25-year-old female with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease presented unusual symptoms in a specific geographical region, prompting clinicians to approach diagnosis and management with caution due to potential severe complications such as pulmonary hypertension and renal crisis.

This study found that in mink, the pituitary gland is essential for normal seasonal pelage cycles, and manipulating hormone levels can affect hair growth and type.
