This study observed that using an environmentally friendly bovine milk permeate effectively and cleanly removes wool from sheepskins without harming the skin, and results in smoother leather compared to traditional chemical methods.

Under the conditions of this research, Leucaena was generally unpalatable for heifers, caused health issues like goitre and hair loss, and did not significantly increase fertility or productivity.

In this study, an unexpected premature birth of two goat kids occurred following prostaglandin administration in a timed artificial insemination protocol, with both kids exhibiting congenital abnormalities such as laryngotracheal swelling and generalized alopecia.

This study found that incorporating Musa extracts in pretreatment products effectively mitigated hair damage during permanent wave application, closely maintaining hair thickness and tensile strength compared to untreated hair.

This study identified genomic regions and genes associated with wool, live weight, body condition, and reproduction traits in Uruguayan Merino sheep, highlighting potential genetic factors influencing these characteristics.

This case report from the study describes a dog suffering from dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum canis, presenting with alopecia on the neck and ear, illustrating the zoonotic risk of these fungal infections in both animals and humans, particularly in hot and humid climates.

This study found that melatonin combined with bromocryptine treatment in Spanish goats increased secondary hair follicle numbers and extended the cashmere growth phase during spring.

This article discusses the discovery of the first known menstruating rodent, the spiny mouse, and proposes that a significant increase in progesterone during the luteal phase is a unique feature of menstruating species, but reports no new experimental results.

This case report suggests that Malarone® may cause acute pancreatitis and alopecia in dogs, highlighting the need for careful monitoring of adverse reactions when using this drug in canine treatment.

This study found that matriptase, a membrane serine protease, is crucial for maintaining multiple types of epithelial tissues in mice, with its absence leading to severe organ dysfunction and increased permeability.

In this case report, researchers documented the first instance of alopecia in a bat from Veracruz, México, specifically in an individual of Artibeus jamaicensis, likely caused by a thoracic injury leading to an infection.

This study found that Nubian ibex have developed genetic adaptations in response to their desert environment, including enhanced skin barrier, DNA repair, viral response, and metabolism of toxic compounds.

This study reported that the coat hairs of golden takin, living in harsh environments, have unique structural features compared to cattle, with overcoat hairs having continuous medullated tissue and undercoat hairs being finely crimped, potentially contributing to temperature regulation in cold conditions.

In this case report, photosensitization occurred in Shorthorn calves from three herds in Missouri, with skin lesions and mild liver damage, but affected calves recovered within three weeks.

Adding bentonite clays to goat diets increased milk yield, periwinkle shell improved chicken egg production, and vaccination increased muscle area and carcass yield in calves.

This study reported that Egyptian and Omani men with obesity had similar nutritional and lifestyle factors contributing to their condition, highlighting the importance of diet and physical activity in managing obesity.

This study identified a new gene, mrp4, in mice, which suggests it may have a unique role in the growth and development of hair follicles in the ears and tails.

This study in the Banadir region of Somalia found that donkeys used to pull heavy loads experience various health problems, largely due to inadequate shelter, poor-quality harnessing equipment, and insufficient regulations on animal welfare, highlighting a need for government action on these issues.

This study found that human placenta extract may be a promising pulp-capping material, causing less intense chronic inflammation and thicker dentine bridge formation compared to mineral trioxide aggregate in dogs' teeth.

This study investigated bovine milk-derived exosomes and found they significantly increased dermal papilla cell viability and up-regulated WNT pathway components in human hair follicles, suggesting potential therapeutic value for hair loss disorders like androgenetic alopecia and telogen effluvium.

In this study, using a shampoo with Morus alba root extract over 12 weeks increased hair density and shaft thickness in patients with mild to moderate non-scarring alopecia, with both investigators and participants noting visible improvements and moderate satisfaction.

This report from SRUC VS highlighted a suspected case of Schmallenberg virus infection in a calf born to an imported heifer, noting consistent clinical signs and seroconversion in the dam.

This study found that melatonin implants at specific times of the year may increase cashmere production in young Australian cashmere goats by altering their growth cycles.

In this case report, a 9-year-old horse was diagnosed with alopecia areata contributing to Malassezia dermatitis, involving lymphocyte infiltration and symptoms consistent with yeast presence.

This case report highlights that equine multisystemic eosinophilic epitheliotropic disease should be considered in horses presenting with skin lesions and gastrointestinal symptoms, as illustrated by the progression in a 5-year-old horse despite treatment.

This study found that maternal melatonin supplementation improved fur quality in Rex rabbit offspring by increasing hair follicle density and altering melatonin receptor gene expression in several organs.

In this case report, researchers describe a fungal skin infection, dermatophytosis, in an 11-month-old female dog, shedding light on the zoonotic nature of the disease, which affects both animals and humans, particularly in climates that are hot and humid.

In this study, researchers found that the thickness of various skin layers in Bos indicus cattle varied significantly by body region, with the neck and shoulder being thickest, and that male skin might be more suited for quality leather production compared to female skin.

This study found that lower dietary protein with supplemented methionine allowed blue foxes to grow normally and produce high-quality pelts while reducing feed costs and environmental phosphorus and nitrogen loads.
