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.

This article discusses the late presentation of myotonic dystrophy but reports no new clinical findings.

This report describes a case of cryptococcal meningitis in an immunosuppressed patient in Manaus, highlighting the need for improved health education on preventing cryptococcosis.

This study observed that Fraser’s dolphins exhibit remarkable skin healing abilities, with type I collagen prevalent in normal skin and type III collagen emerging during early wound healing before returning to normal configuration, suggesting insights for human clinical wound management.

In this thesis, researchers explored ways to enhance the management of myotonic dystrophy type 1 by investigating the genetic inheritance patterns, especially small-sized repeat expansions, and assessing cardiac care, energy expenditure, and body composition in affected individuals.

This case report details an unusual instance of multiple eruptive milia in an otherwise healthy 3-month-old baby, characterized by widespread distribution and believed to be idiopathic due to the absence of associated genodermatoses.

This study investigated the hair structure of wild pigs in the Balıkesir region using stereomicroscopy and scanning electron microscopy, finding distinct bifurcation patterns, but concluded that pig bristles used in brushes likely wouldn't retain these features, complicating species identification.

In this study, researchers observed that alopecia prevalence varies in gray bats throughout the summer, with higher rates in lactating females, who also exhibit more severe lesions, but found no link between subcutaneous mites and fur loss.

This study identified miRNAs within the Dlk1-Gtl2 region on chromosome 18 as potential epigenetic regulators of lamb fur traits, with possible implications for the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway.

This study concluded that an endogenous circannual rhythm of prolactin secretion in mouflon influences their seasonal hair growth and moulting cycle, which varies under different photoperiodic and melatonin treatments.

The researchers reported a case of a neotropical porcupine co-infected with Brazilian porcupine poxvirus and Toxoplasma gondii, suggesting the need for further investigation into the impact of this interaction.

This study found that ringtailed lemurs consuming leucaena in Berenty absorb mimosine, which causes alopecia without affecting body condition or organ toxicity; this may increase infant mortality due to alopecic mothers.

This study observed that adult male raccoon dogs undergo seasonal moults, with winter fur maturing by the end of November after significant hair growth in spring and autumn.

In this study, researchers observed that introducing an Environmental Enrichment Program improved the reproductive and zootechnical performance of Calomys callosus rodents by enhancing reproductive indices, parental care, and overall health, including reduced non-infectious lumbar alopecia.

This study found that Acanthus montanus leaves' aqueous extract is a developmental toxicant in rats, leading to several adverse effects on offspring when used during pregnancy.

This case report describes a 1-month-old male infant with Netherton syndrome, characterized by severe hypernatremia, skin and scalp issues, highlighting the syndrome's complications, including growth retardation and infection risks in early life.

This study found that topical application of bovine milk polar lipids accelerated hair cycle progression in mice, showing potential for use in cosmetic products.

In this study, naked mole-rats demonstrated unique skin and hair follicle innervation features compared to other species, suggesting adaptations to their subterranean environment and poikilothermy.

This study developed the mTurquoise2-Col4a1 mouse model and used fluorescent tagging of collagen IV to offer new insights into basement membrane dynamics during hair follicle budding, revealing that basement membranes are flexible and stable structures in developing skin tissue.

The authors reported that a combination of amino acid and stem cell therapy may have extended survival in a dog with hepatocutaneous syndrome to 32 months post-diagnosis.

This study found no conclusive link between prolonged mibolerone treatment and perifollicular mineralization in toy poodles, suggesting it may instead be a senile change common in the breed.

This study developed a partially automated protocol utilizing hair follicles for DNA extraction in marmosets, achieving reliable whole genome sequencing with low chimerism, offering an efficient alternative to blood for genetic studies in non-human primates.

This study suggests that feeding pregnant mares protein blocks with urea is as effective as hand-fed protein supplements in supporting hair follicle development and protein status.

This study found that steers grazing on toxic tall fescue with continuous hair growth and reduced sweating had impaired thermoregulation, leading to decreased grazing activity and poor performance.

This review systematically summarizes the ethnopharmacology, phytochemistry, and pharmacological activities of Caryota mitis, highlighting its rich phytochemical profile and potential uses in treating various ailments, though many traditional uses still require further scientific validation.

This study developed and tested two methods to accurately quantify hair growth rates in polar, black, and grizzly bears using dye application and isotopically labelled amino acids, revealing growth rate variations by individual and season.

This study found that reducing circulating PRL levels is not necessary for the onset of winter hair growth in mink and that adrenal glands do not inhibit this process through DHEA or its metabolite Delta(5)-DIOL.

This review explores the structural and functional sex differences in mammals beyond reproductive organs, highlighting variations in life expectancy, organ size, metabolism, and immune function, but it reports no new results.

This case report describes the clinical and diagnostic features of a mare with mammary lymphoma associated with anaemia and pruritus.
