In this study, researchers found that alpha-keratin homologs similar to those in mammalian hair are present in the claws of the lizard Anolis carolinensis, suggesting a structural role during claw formation.

This study reviewed and reclassified 37 cases of primary scarring alopecia using histological methods to achieve more accurate diagnoses within subtypes like lupus erythematosus and lichen planopilaris.

In this study, a 5-year-old Angus bull experienced systemic granulomatous disease and vasculitis potentially associated with grazing on hairy vetch, but other bulls in the same pasture showed no symptoms, suggesting variability in disease manifestation from similar exposures.

In this case report, a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome also had mononeuritis multiplex, and the authors suggest that an autoimmune mechanism may be involved based on steroid responsiveness and electrophysiological findings.

Lichen planopilaris patients often have other health conditions too.

This study found that in mice, competition for hair follicles guides the organization of follicle-innervating LTMR neurons during early development, with different neuronal subtypes showing varying adaptive responses to increased neuron populations.

This abstract presents a clinical case of a woman with traction alopecia and discusses trichoscopic findings without reporting any new research results.

This case report describes a 65-year-old man's trichofolliculoma, a hair follicle-origin tumor, which appeared as a persistent cheek pore extrusion and was removed at the patient's request.

This case report describes a 56-year-old male with chronic watery diarrhea, hyperpigmentation, and alopecia, in whom colonoscopy revealed multiple polypoidal lesions from the distal transverse colon to the rectum.

In this study, a 12-week treatment with Angelicae Gigantis Radix and Glycyrrhizae Radix complex was well tolerated and showed therapeutic effects on moderate lower urinary tract symptoms in men.

This review discusses the bioactive compounds and biological activities of Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. and highlights concerns about its hepatotoxicity, but reports no new clinical results.

Results are not reported in this abstract, which describes a man in his 30s with a 4-year history of patchy hair loss on the right lower leg and associated itching, highlighting the use of dermoscopy in his examination.

This study found that lichen planopilaris was the most common variant of cicatricial alopecia among patients, with perifollicular fibrosis being a prevalent histopathological feature.

This study described trichilemmal cysts, firm lumps that form from blocked hair follicles, typically found on the scalp but also less commonly on other body parts, affecting less than 10% of the population and possibly inherited as an autosomal dominant trait.

This case report documents a trichofolliculoma of the upper lip in a 70-year-old woman, highlighting its clinical presentation and successful surgical removal without recurrence.

This study describes a rare form of congenital alopecia in domestic short hair cats, characterized by hair shaft defects and follicular dystrophy similar to those seen in certain mutant mouse strains.

Monilethrix has no effective treatment, but avoiding hair trauma helps manage it.

This study introduces a modular fiber model to investigate how changes in microstructural properties of wool affect its critical buckling load, highlighting potential uses and areas needing further research in wool fiber biophysics.

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 case report presents the first known instance of cutaneous lymphoma in a nondomestic bovid, documented in a 13-year-old addax.

In this study, electron microscopy of follicular mucinosis showed severe cytoplasmic degeneration in hair follicles, with myelin figures and onion-like lamellar structures, but no indications of mucin release through degeneration or degradation were found.

In this study, distinct androgen excess subtypes were identified in women with PCOS, with the adrenal androgen excess cluster showing significantly higher rates of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, suggesting 11-oxygenated androgens as potential drivers of metabolic risk.

Microscopic hair features can identify different Cauda Cervi species.

This study found that Adapalene, Diosmin, and Azelastine have potential as multi-target drugs against Onchocerca volvulus and its endosymbiont, which might offer new therapeutic options for treating river blindness, but further research is needed to confirm their effectiveness.

This study in Hexi cashmere goats found that secondary follicle activity increases with time, and Hoxc13 expression varies significantly across different growth stages, suggesting a role in follicle activity.

In this case study of a Beetal doe with severe skin lesions, the researchers diagnosed concurrent psoroptic mange and malasseziosis, and reported successful treatment with a combination of Ivermectin, antibiotics, and topical applications, leading to reduced skin lesions and new hair growth.

This histological study of Millivora Capenesis skin describes the composition of the dermis, featuring distinct papillary and reticular layers with associated structures like hair follicles, glands, and corpuscles.

This article describes a case of localized trichorrhexis nodosa in a patient with otherwise normal hair, highlighting the condition's response to trauma and diagnostic process but reporting no new clinical findings.

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.
