This study reports an abnormal onion-shaped swelling on the hair shafts of some Abyssinian cats, affecting the appearance of their coat, though skin and hair structures appear normal under the microscope.

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 study identified a genetic locus associated with coat type in domestic dogs, showing certain variants linked to single-coated breeds and suggesting potential regulatory roles.

This review reports that sonidegib and vismodegib, two Hedgehog inhibitors used for treating advanced basal cell carcinoma, have similar efficacy and safety profiles, but differ in pharmacokinetics, with sonidegib achieving peak concentration more rapidly and reaching steady state later than vismodegib.

In this veterinary case report, the treatment of a 3-year-old male cat named Chipmunk for scabiosis, otitis externa, toxocariosis, and ancylostomiasis using ivermectin, diphenhydramine, drontal, and additional medications was found to be clinically effective.

This study found that mice genetically modified to overexpress the serine protease inhibitor hurpin showed reduced UV-induced apoptosis but increased susceptibility to skin cancer after chemical carcinogenesis.

This case report describes a rare instance of dermatophytosis in a young cat caused by Microsporum gypseum, confirmed by molecular analyses to be Arthroderma gypseum.

Tiny particles carrying roxithromycin can effectively target and deliver the drug to hair follicles without irritation.

In this study, the authors reported that the laparoscopic single anastomosis sleeve ileal (SASI) bypass was associated with effective weight loss and improvement in obesity-related comorbidities within 6 months post-surgery.

This study revealed that Patched receptors establish a Hedgehog signaling gradient in developing hair follicles, which may influence their formation and potentially offer a diagnostic tool for distinguishing Hedgehog-driven tumors.

This case report identified cutaneous epitheliotropic T-cell lymphoma in a 3-year-old male sugar glider after skin biopsies, highlighting the need for thorough diagnostic evaluations in exotic pets.

This study reported that squarticles, nanoparticle carriers made from sebum-derived lipids, significantly enhanced minoxidil delivery to hair follicles in vitro, increasing follicular uptake sevenfold and minimizing systemic absorption compared to a free control solution, while showing good skin tolerability.

This study discovered that a specific G to C mutation in the ornithine aminotransferase gene is linked to the retarded hair growth phenotype in mice and may serve as a model for human gyrate atrophy.

This study found that gray mongooses have more numerous and well-developed sebaceous glands compared to domestic cats, suggesting they may benefit from enhanced lipid-derived skin protection.

This study identified a nonsense mutation in the Sgkl gene as the cause of defective hair growth in a mutant mouse strain, implicating the SGKL signaling pathway in hair development.

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.

This study reports on eight previously unpublished cases of Bohring-Opitz syndrome with ASXL1 mutations, suggesting the importance of screening for Wilms tumors in these patients.

The Dfl mutation in mice causes poor sebaceous gland function and complete hair loss.

This study identified 64 chemical compounds in the L. luteus L. plant, including several fatty acids and coumarin, highlighting the pharmacognostic potential of yellow lupine.

This study found that liarozole is more effective than cyproterone acetate for improving PSA response and survival in metastatic prostate cancer after first-line endocrine therapy, while maintaining quality of life.

In this study, specific genetic polymorphisms in the KRT71 gene were associated with hairless and curly phenotypes in Sphynx and Devon Rex cats.

In this study, introducing the rat OTC gene into spf-ash mice led to increased OTC activity and normalized hair growth and biochemical markers like urinary orotic acid and serum citrulline, partially correcting the symptoms of OTC deficiency.

This case report documents a dog with dermatophytosis, caused by the fungus Microsporum canis, presenting symptoms like alopecia in the neck and ear, highlighting the condition's prevalence in tropical and temperate climates and its zoonotic nature.

This letter reports the first known Japanese case of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with compound heterozygous mutations in the LIPH gene.

This study reports the first identification of the deleterious NIPAL 4 variant, associated with autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis, in an American Bully and describes its clinical management and follow-up.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the clinical and histopathologic diagnosis of skin diseases in dogs and cats and reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, a dual soft drug design strategy improved the AR antagonist candidate 39, showing potent AR antagonism and good safety in a mouse hair-growth model, with similar efficacy to pyrilutamide but faster response.

In this study, solid lipid microparticles loaded with lidocaine hydrochloride were developed to effectively deliver pain relief and antimicrobial benefits for wound management, demonstrated by testing with bioengineered skin substitutes and showing effectiveness against common wound-infecting bacteria.
