This study concluded that coat damage in captive rhesus macaques is unlikely caused by parasitic, bacterial, or mycotic infections but may be linked to environmental or behavioral factors affecting hair growth.

This study used atomic force microscopy to image surface structures of human epidermal melanocytes, hair follicle amelanotic melanocytes, and mouse melanoma cells, revealing differences in branch structure and granule distribution.

This study highlights the importance of understanding the biology and social behavior of Old World monkeys in biomedical research, noting that improper housing can lead to stress-related behaviors that may impact research outcomes.

This study found that deleting the Mof gene in mouse skin leads to severe defects in skin cell self-renewal, differentiation, and hair follicle growth, indicating that MOF is crucial for mitochondrial and ciliary gene expression and essential for skin development.

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.

This study examined how melatonin affects cashmere growth in goats, identifying potential molecular targets like ATP6V0A4, DLX3, and SMOC2 for enhancing cashmere yield and quality.

Manganese levels in hair may be linked to multiple sclerosis.

The authors observed that the patterned melanoderma on the hairless scalp of fair-skinned Caucasian men with androgenic alopecia resembled similar patterns seen on facial skin.

This case study in a veterinary setting reported the successful recovery of a camel diagnosed with Sarcoptes scabiei infection, following treatment with ivermectin and multivitamins over a five-week period.

Scalp micropigmentation is a process where tiny dots of pigment are tattooed onto the scalp to create the appearance of a shaved head or fuller hair.

This study revealed that different coat patterns in cats and cheetahs are related to variations in the aminopeptidase Q gene and endothelin-3 expression, which affects pigment production.

In this study, researchers found that microRNAs in the oar-let-7 and oar-miR-200 families were significantly up-regulated during critical fetal periods of cashmere goat hair follicle development, suggesting their role in this process.

This case report describes a rare concurrence of Morbihan disease with eyelid edema and extrafacial lupus miliaris disseminatus faciei in a patient, noting improvement of truncal lesions with roxithromycin and resolution of eyelid edema following surgical treatment.

This study found that miRNA-24 downregulates the KLF6 gene, influencing coat color by affecting melanogenesis pathways in Cashmere goats, and that miRNA-24 inhibition increased melanin content in mice.

This study found that the dark pigmentation pattern in Dun Mongolian horses' "Bider marking" is closely associated with higher protein levels and specific localization of MITF and WNT3A, suggesting these are key factors in its formation.

This study found that camel hair treated with the photosensitizer Rose Bengal exhibited strong antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli when exposed to visible light, achieving over 99.90% bacterial inhibition and maintaining robust mechanical strength.

This study found that the methanolic extract of Suaeda monodiana Maire exhibited antioxidant, antimicrobial, and photoprotective activities, suggesting its potential use in pharmaceutical formulations for treating skin diseases.

This study found that Mueller Matrix microscopy can accurately identify, detect, and evaluate hair follicles in mouse skin tissue, suggesting its potential for skin structure research and dermatological applications.

In this study, the researchers found that using dragon fruit peel extract in a gray hair dye formulation, along with specific adjuvants, produced a dark black color on gray hair, demonstrating its potential as a natural colorant alternative to synthetic dyes.

This study found that conditional deletion of Mof in mice resulted in severe defects in skin development, including compromised epidermal differentiation and hair growth, leading to perinatal lethality.

Monilethrix Syndrome causes fragile, beaded hair that breaks easily and needs early diagnosis for better care.

This study explored the role of plant-derived monomers in reversing grey hair, finding that compounds like fraxinol and morin may stimulate melanin production and tyrosinase activity, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits, although further evaluation of their safety and efficacy is needed.

In this study, researchers conducted a whole-transcriptome analysis of Dazu Black Goats and Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats to explore differences in hair follicle development and melanin production, revealing variations in hair characteristics and 640 differentially expressed RNAs that could inform goat breeding and textile applications.

This study reports that Lichen planus pigmentosus is present in Moroccan patients but remains challenging to treat, with only some experiencing complete resolution of lesions after therapy.

This study found that Polygonum multiflorum radix ethanol extract may promote melanin synthesis, potentially helping to turn gray hair back to black by enhancing antioxidant activity and increasing tyrosinase expression.

This article examines microscopic structural differences and pigment distribution in various rabbit hair colors and reports no clinical results.

In this study, researchers found that single SNPs have a small genetic effect on phenotypes in Inner Mongolia cashmere goats, and constructing haplotypes from associated SNPs may uncover complex variations in cashmere traits, aiding genomics and breeding efforts.

This study found that diffuse alopecia in female squirrel monkeys is associated with chronic telogen effluvium and appears to be predominantly age-related, potentially serving as an animal model for human diffuse alopecia.
