This study found that the Dun camouflage color in horses is due to TBX3 expression, which causes uneven pigment deposition, whereas non-dun coat colors result from regulatory mutations affecting TBX3 expression.

This case report describes a 6-year-old girl diagnosed with monilethrix despite no familial history and treated with a topical minoxidil trial.

This study found that combining adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells with meglumine antimoniate reduced lesion size and parasite load in mice with leishmaniasis, suggesting potential for improved treatment.

This study observed significant differences in skin fungal communities between healthy and alopecic cynomolgus macaques, suggesting certain microorganisms may be associated with alopecia in these primates.

This study examined how varying concentrations of kaolin base in mud masks with red pomegranate peel extract influenced properties like viscosity, pH, and drying time, finding that a formulation with 22.5% kaolin performed best in terms of physical characteristics and enzyme inhibition.

This case report describes an eight-year-old Kashmiri boy diagnosed with monilethrix, a rare genetic hair disorder, characterized by a beaded appearance and fragility of the hair shaft.

This study describes a Japanese family with monilethrix and found no clear genotype/phenotype correlation in cases with the E413K mutation in hHb6.

This study reports that a 14-year-old female rhesus monkey with alopecia universalis was found to have a T-cell-mediated autoimmune disease similar to human alopecia areata universalis.

In this study, seasonal hair loss was most pronounced in low-ranking male vervet monkeys, and changes in scrotal color and hyperpigmentation also correlated with hair loss, but underlying causes were not identified.

In this study, the authors reported that feeding cashmere goats with essential oil-cobalt significantly enhanced their growth, meat quality, and fiber quality, while stimulating immune-related physiological changes.

This case study describes a 9-year-old boy with monilethrix and associated abnormalities, suggesting a new, severe autosomal recessive variant termed "monilethrix syndrome.

In this study, DMC selectively eliminated senescent cells in old mice, prevented hair loss, improved motor coordination, and reduced senescence-associated secretory factors, suggesting its potential as a senolytic treatment.

This study found that melanin granules in black human hair are key dyeing regions for oxidative hair coloring, as confirmed by nanoscale mass spectrometry analysis detecting deuterium ions.

In this study, researchers analyzed 24 European Merino sheep populations to investigate genetic adaptations to climate, identifying 168 significant SNPs and related genes associated with temperature variation and environmental adaptation, focusing on traits like isothermality and pathways related to immune response and system development.

This study found that applying black mud to mice increased skin collagen and superoxide dismutase activity, decreased malondialdehyde levels, and enhanced hair growth and smoothness.

This report describes two cases of Majocchi's granuloma in immunocompromised patients, highlighting the importance of considering this condition in such populations.

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 found that patients with MPA had significantly lower zinc and manganese levels and higher copper levels in their hair compared to hair-healthy men.

This study found that seasonal changes significantly affected hair follicle activity and fibre growth in Merghoz goats, with variations seen in feed intake and growth patterns across different seasons.

This case report describes a 7-year-old female from the Middle East with monilethrix, highlighting the disease's rarity in this population, characterized by brittle, sparse hair and keratosis pilaris.

This study observed distinct changes in the ultrastructure of Hexi cashmere goat hair follicles throughout the year, highlighting stages with specific cellular and structural characteristics.

This study surveyed the use and potential toxicity of medicinal plants in the Fez-Meknes region of Morocco, documenting 59 toxic species used primarily for cosmetic purposes and minor illnesses, and identified hair loss and rheumatism as having the highest informant agreement ratios.

This study explored using 3D models derived from reflectance confocal microscopy to better understand and differentiate melanoma on sun-damaged skin, suggesting enhanced diagnostic possibilities.

This study found 100% efficacy in treating psoroptosis in sheep and wild goats using macrolide injections "Iveron-10" and "Dectomax," complemented by "Butox-50" bathing in sheep, though infestation initially affected all animals with varied severity.

This study explored the intersection of art and medicine, specifically examining the depiction of the malar rash associated with lupus in historical paintings. The authors suggest that this approach, known as iconodiagnosis, can enhance medical education and understanding of disease manifestations through visual arts.

This study found that a mixed extract of N. jatamansi, O. basilicum, and C. sativus, particularly when extracted via steaming and ultrasonic methods, increased antioxidant content, stimulated melanin production for black hair, and promoted hair growth in mouse models, while maintaining high cell viability.
