This article proposes a hypothesis that KRT75, a protein found in hair follicles, was evolutionarily co-opted by ameloblasts during the development of prismatic enamel in synapsids, but reports no new results.

This study suggests that melanoma tumor cells exhibit intrinsic plasticity, challenging the applicability of the cancer stem cell model to this malignancy.

This study examined the complex morphology of the cornified claw sheath in domesticated cats, uncovering structures and growth patterns that help maintain sharp claw tips essential for climbing and prey capture.

This study found that the combined oral contraceptive containing ethinyl estradiol and chlormadinone acetate was effective in reducing moderate papulopustular acne and other androgen-related skin disorders compared to placebo.

This report describes a case where a 24-year-old woman developed severe ear and face hypertrichosis after using 5% topical minoxidil, which resolved three months after discontinuation.

This review discusses three decades of progress in feather development, regeneration, and evolution, with no new experimental results; it highlights feathers' potential as a model for morphogenesis studies.

This research observed that sheep and rabbit KAP6 genes, expressed in hair follicle cells, have high sequence similarity and indicate conservation due to evolutionary selection pressures.

This study suggests that reptilian claws grow differently from mammalian claws, with continuous epidermal growth rather than a proximal matrix zone for cell proliferation.

This study demonstrates a varied distribution of keratins in the epidermis of the Malayan pangolin, suggesting evolutionary adaptations related to their distinctive scales.

In this study, researchers found that the EDMTFH protein is present in specific layers of the chicken embryo skin and feathers, suggesting its role in feather mechanics and development.

This study suggests that the structure and function of the inner root sheath in mammalian hair may have evolved from simpler forms seen in monotremes, aiding in hair exit without damaging the epidermis.

In this study, adding disinfected feathers to the diet of captive Arctic foxes increased gut bacterial species diversity without changing overall abundance, potentially influencing immune response and physiological performance.

This report presents a case of a CKD patient who, after contracting COVID-19, experienced a rapid decline in kidney function, hair loss, and spontaneous wart remission, highlighting a need for further investigation into these unexpected outcomes.

This study analyzes the fine structure and protein distribution in monotreme hairs, finding similarities with other mammals and detailing unique immunocytochemical features in their inner root sheaths.

This review discusses the embryology, structure, and function of sebaceous glands and their involvement in skin disorders but reports no novel findings.

This article explores the origins and differences between human and animal faces, emphasizing the face's role in communication and its relevance to plastic surgery, but presents no new research findings.

This case report describes a male cat with demodicosis primarily attributed to Demodex cati, suggesting the generalized disease may have been exacerbated by pruritus related to flea infestation.

This study describes the successful treatment of a stray kitten with Notoedric mange using a combination of Selamectin, benzyl peroxide shampoo, omega 3 and 6 supplements, and ayurvedic ointment, resulting in complete clinical recovery and negative skin scraping after six weeks.

This study found that Notoedres cati infests about 5.5% of domestic cats in Hyderabad and suggests that Selamectin provides faster recovery than an Aloe vera and virgin coconut oil formulation, although both treatments are effective.

This case report described a young Himalayan kitten in Indonesia with notoedric mange, treated successfully with topical selamectin and sarolaner, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and management to prevent reinfestation, especially in urban areas.

This case report describes successful treatment of mange in a rabbit using topical selamectin over two weeks.

This article reviews topics from the American Academy of Veterinary Dermatology and American College of Veterinary Dermatology Annual Meeting and contains no new clinical findings.

This manuscript discusses a large-scale cross-sectional analysis on addressing variance in responses to a set of questions by identifying underlying factors, but specific results are not reported in the abstract.

This study found that the Hr gene loss and positive selection for the FGF5 gene in cetaceans likely contributed to hair loss as these animals adapted to aquatic environments.

This review discusses the role of keratin-associated proteins in the growth and characteristics of wool and hair fibres from sheep and goats, and highlights areas for future research, but it presents no new findings.

Humans lost body hair relatively recently in evolution.

This review examines the adaptive value and mechanisms of seasonal coat colour moulting in birds and mammals, highlighting the challenge of camouflage mismatch and the necessity for evolutionary adaptation under climate change.

This study discovered nine human type I hair keratin genes, including a transcribed pseudogene, in a 190 kbp genomic region, revealing three gene subclusters based on sequence homologies.

This article reviews the generation of complex integument patterns through genetic, chemical, and environmental influences, with applications in tissue engineering, but reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the molecular and functional aspects of the nude gene in skin biology, providing insights into its role and evolutionary development, but reports no new results.
