This study found that serum prolactin and dehydroepiandrosterone levels did not determine the onset of mink hair growth cycles, though their metabolites may influence other aspects of hair growth.

This study found that a dietary change in common marmosets significantly reduced in vitro erythrocyte haemolysis, improved skin lesions, and promoted complete fur regrowth, possibly due to increased vitamin E levels.

This study documented clinical cases of dermatophytosis in two free-ranging southern chamois in the Eastern Pyrenees, with Trichophyton mentagrophytes identified in both animals.

Among Australian fur seals at one colony, this study found that alopecia, primarily affecting juvenile females, is linked to hair shaft fractures associated with low tyrosine and zinc levels, as well as higher pollutant exposure.

In this study, exotic lice were found to be widespread among mule deer in California, with younger age classes and low blood selenium concentrations being significantly associated with infestation.

This study explores the physical properties of hair from various wild mammalian species using polarized light microscopy, aiming to correlate these properties with the internal structures such as the medulla, cortex, and keratin cuticle.

This case report documented the management of a 46-year-old female with Marine-Lenhart syndrome, combining antithyroids with minimally invasive sclerotherapy to achieve euthyroidism and reduce thyroid nodule size by 58%.

This study found that fibroblasts from highly regenerative mammals, such as spiny mice and rabbits, exhibit unique metabolic characteristics, including a preference for glycolysis and specific mitochondrial features, which may contribute to their resistance to oxidative stress and support tissue regeneration.

This study describes presumed albendazole toxicosis in alpacas, suggesting that repeated doses as low as 19 mg/kg can lead to severe neutropenia, enteropathy, and potentially death in this species.

In this study, researchers determined that poor feed quality and nutritional deficiency, especially low vitamin A levels, were leading causes of impaired reproductive function in nutria, with deficiencies most pronounced during February-March and linked to clinical signs like growth retardation and alopecia.

In this study, persistent ringworm infections in dairy calves appeared resistant to standard topical treatments and showed a potential risk of spreading to human attendants.

This study observed that more than 30% of animals in the New Valley had skin problems, with external parasites affecting half of those cases.

This case report documents a dog with dermatophytosis, caused by the fungus Microsporum canis, presenting symptoms like alopecia in the neck and ear, highlighting the condition's prevalence in tropical and temperate climates and its zoonotic nature.

In this study, researchers observed that heat stress significantly affected hair and skin traits in two indigenous goat breeds, with Kodi Aadu goats demonstrating greater thermal resilience compared to Kanni Aadu goats, potentially due to differences in gene expression and methylation.

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

This study found that the interdigital gland of Vembur sheep has larger secretory lobules in males than females, producing various compounds for chemical communication and foot protection.

This study observed structural and molecular changes in Ganxi goat skin that adapt to hot and humid climates and suggested that GSDMA might play a role in hair follicle regulation and skin homeostasis, though further research is needed to confirm its function in environmental adaptation.

Coconut oil boosts testosterone but doesn't fully trigger reproductive maturity in pufferfish.

This study reported that mammary stem cells in terminal end buds of the mammary gland primarily contribute to branching morphogenesis through dynamic positional regulation and cellular rearrangement.

In this study, ivermectin treatment in affected Columbian black-tailed deer was associated with increased weight gain, reduced parasites, and faster hair regrowth compared to untreated deer.

This study characterized the hair follicle patterns of Indian bison, Black buck, and Nilgai, providing valuable data to help identify these endangered species' skins, commonly targeted by poachers.

This article reviews historical uses of male red deer parts in traditional medicine but provides no new research findings; it emphasizes their long-standing role in treatments for various health issues.

In this case report, the researchers highlight a possible association between myotonic dystrophy type 1 and multiple tongue hemangiomas, and emphasize that patients with this condition can experience exacerbated respiratory muscle weakness and risk of respiratory failure even with epidural anesthesia.

This report documented the first known case of Malassezia slooffiae-associated dermatitis identified in a goat through diagnostic work-up, including histology and DNA sequencing.

This study concluded that the process of mummification disfigures facial features, making identification challenging, but commercial shrunken heads retain more defining features compared to ceremonial ones.

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 case study reports the first clinical case of besnoitiosis in two donkeys in Italy, suggesting a wider distribution of the disease in European equids than previously expected.

This study found that an innovative treatment using honey and banana leaf coverings helped manage thermal burns in bovines, with most animals recovering within 2 to 4 months.

This study found that the structure and mineral content of dromedary camel hair, specifically the medulla patterns, medulla index, and elemental composition, change with age, revealing differences among camels aged 1 year, 3-5 years, and 8-10 years.

This study found that melatonin implants caused male weasels to molt, develop a new white winter coat, and become reproductively inactive, suggesting melatonin affects their neuroendocrine system.
