This study found that the S. epidermidis A/C lineage is more pathogenic due to its metabolic and genomic versatility, which allows it to adapt quickly from a commensal to a pathogenic lifestyle.

This study found that all healthy cats tested were carriers of *Microsporum canis*, and 86.66% of dogs carried this fungus, with further positive cultures for other dermatophytes and yeasts suggesting these animals may contribute to environmental fungal spread.

This study found that all tested cats and 86.66% of dogs were carriers of dermatophytes like Microsporum canis, with cats showing higher prevalence, indicating these asymptomatic animals may significantly contribute to the spread of dermatophytosis and dermatomycoses.

This study observed mycobacterial infection with M. xenopi in a pet ferret, noting its resistance to doxycycline, and highlighted the potential zoonotic transmission risk associated with such infections.

This study found that the novel bacteriophage Halo KS-7 shows strong antibacterial activity against carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and significantly promotes wound healing in mice, making it a promising biocontrol agent for managing multidrug-resistant infections.

This study reported three cases of tinea corporis caused by Microsporum canis in a household, linked to a domestic cat, where genetic analysis suggested a familial transmission route.

This publication presents a library of precision geometric medicines that reportedly kill harmful bacteria and fungi while sparing beneficial organisms, using a delivery system that targets pathogens specifically and avoids ecological harm.

This study found that four bacterial isolates from a microbiology laboratory collection demonstrated resistance to selenate, with molecular analysis showing they closely resemble different strains of Bacillus megaterium.

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

This study identified new oxidative derivatives of finasteride, including a newly discovered metabolite, by using the fungus Macrophomina phaseolina.

This publication presents a library of geometric medicines designed to selectively target pathogenic bacteria and fungi with high precision while minimizing ecological harm, available for free on a non-commercial basis.

This report presents a case of molluscum contagiosum virus infection within an epidermoid cyst in a 13-year-old on long-term steroid treatment, highlighting its rare occurrence and need for histological examination for accurate diagnosis.

This study developed a genetic toolbox to engineer Cutibacterium acnes for dermal applications, successfully creating a strain that secretes antioxidants to reduce oxidative stress in a UV stress model.

This study observed a new skin disease in farmed mink in Canada, suggesting that an unidentified infectious agent, in association with secondary bacterial infection, may cause the condition.

This pilot study explored a new method using laser-capture microdissection and 16S rRNA gene sequencing to analyze the human scalp hair follicle microbiome more accurately, revealing region-specific variations in microbial diversity and abundance.

This study found that Mueller-Hinton Agar performed better than Dermasel Agar for antifungal susceptibility testing of feline dermatophytes, providing reliable susceptibility data for effective antifungal therapy.

In this study, researchers found that 32.5% of stray cats in Bogor, Indonesia, tested positive for dermatophyte infections, specifically Microsporum canis, highlighting the potential zoonotic risk these cats pose.

This article suggests that scalp erythrasma caused by Corynebacterium minutissimum may be underdiagnosed and that oral antibiotics used for other conditions could reduce its risk.

In this study, the researchers reported that chloramphenicol-loaded liposomes, particularly those incorporating deoxycholic acid, enhanced follicular uptake and showed strong antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, offering potential for treating MRSA-infected skin conditions with good skin biocompatibility and minimal toxicity.

This study evaluated the antimicrobial activity of a newly synthesized fluoroquinolone against Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Escherichia coli strains. The researchers compared results from the microdilution technique and agar disk diffusion method to EUCAST's recommended breakpoint values, building on promising in silico molecular docking tests.

This case report documents the first instance of Microsporum canis infection in a red fox, successfully treated with ketoconazole, highlighting asymptomatic cats as possible carriers of this pathogen.

In this case report, a 3-year-old beagle with recurrent skin lesions and alopecia due to a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection showed significant improvement within 10 days and complete resolution after a 28-day treatment with oral linezolid, alongside fungal infection management.

Murine cytomegalovirus does not cause alopecia areata in these mice.

This report describes an outbreak of catheter-related infections by ESBL-producing E. coli in calves at an animal teaching hospital, highlighting the risk of these strains becoming nosocomial and increasing mortality and antibiotic use.

This study reported that 39.7% of Amargosa voles had mite-associated lesions, which may severely impact their health and fitness.

This study provides a comprehensive analysis of over two decades of lung microbiome research, highlighting increasing publication and citation trends, key authors, institutions, and emerging research frontiers, while identifying areas needing more exploration for future studies.

This study reports the first successful treatment of a dog infected with Mycobacterium avium subspecies hominissuis using antibiotics, with no zoonotic transmission observed.

This study introduced a bioengineered model that simulates acne's microenvironment in mice, enabling the exploration of host and P. acnes interactions and presenting a novel platform for anti-acne drug and vaccine screening.

This study found that Microsporum canis was the most prevalent dermatophyte in dogs and cats in Western Turkey, with younger animals more frequently infected than older ones.

This study observed Malassezia hyphae in the keratotic plugs of healthy individuals, which contrasts with previous findings of these hyphae primarily in lesions of pityriasis versicolor patients.
