This study examined wool traits in Angora rabbits using low-coverage whole genome sequencing, identifying six QTLs and a gene, FGF10, linked to fiber growth and diameter, suggesting a cost-effective approach for complex trait analysis in genomic breeding.

This article reports a rare case of squamous cell carcinoma with miliary calcification in a cutaneous horn, suggesting possible involvement of calcium-binding proteins in this unique presentation.

A 4-year-old girl had a rare hair disorder affecting only part of her scalp.

In this study, researchers developed an open-source browser-based tool to enhance the reproducibility and accuracy of SALT score calculations from scalp photos, aimed particularly at assessing partial regrowth in alopecia areata patients on JAK inhibitor therapy.

This case report describes a 50-year-old Kashmiri woman with plica polonica, detailing trichoscopic findings of entangled hair with crisscrossing shafts and concretions.

The authors report a dementia patient who developed severe trichotillomania unresponsive to SSRIs, which improved with quetiapine; they suggest dopamine blockade may manage such symptoms in dementia.

This study found that treatment with the polyphenolic compound TCQA activated β-catenin, promoting hair regrowth and the initiation of the anagen phase in mice and human dermal papilla cells.

This study found that Guasha therapy did not significantly alter nerve fiber morphology or the expression of CGRP and SP in rat skin, with parameters generally returning to normal within five days.

This study describes how dogs can suffer from dermatological issues due to arthropod parasites, notably mange caused by Sarcoptes mites, which leads to skin irritation, hair loss, and can escalate to severe conditions if untreated.

This study found that Hoxc13-/- rabbits exhibit complete hair loss on the head and dorsum, providing a potential model for understanding human ECTD-9 and related dermatological conditions.

This study provided the first published case reports of alopecia associated with the use of quetiapine.

This study introduced a reproducible human model using 3D-SeboSkin technology to study hidradenitis suppurativa, allowing better maintenance of skin integrity and replication of biomarker expression patterns compared to traditional skin cultures, suggesting its value for further research.

This study suggests that macrophages, especially CD206+ subsets, play a key role in hair growth induced by squaric acid dibutyl ester, a therapy used for alopecia areata.

This report discusses a case of short anagen syndrome in a 3-year-old Hispanic girl and emphasizes its differentiation from loose anagen syndrome, without presenting new empirical findings.

This study identified distinctive trichoscopic features that may aid in diagnosing loose anagen hair syndrome, such as rectangular black granular structures, solitary yellow dots, and a predominance of follicular units with single hairs.

In this case report, the researchers diagnosed a large trichobezoar in a 7-year-old girl with gastrointestinal symptoms and weight loss through endoscopy after inconclusive imaging, highlighting endoscopy's importance for accurate diagnosis and the need for surgical and behavioral intervention to prevent recurrence.

This study found that small amounts of subcutaneously injected Se75 were deposited and retained in the hair of dogs for up to 316 days.

This abstract provides a list of medical topics and terms but does not present any new research findings.

A new method was developed to detect pesticide residues on apples without damage.

In this study, a new shading model for hair was developed that better matches real-life light scattering, thanks to detailed new measurements of hair fiber scattering not predicted by existing models.

This report describes a rare case of epidermolysis bullosa acquisita in a child developing during therapy with squaric acid dibutyl ester for alopecia areata, suggesting a possible link between the medication and disease onset.

This study identified two key pentapeptide quasi-repeats in human keratin-associated proteins, which are similar to motifs found in sheep wool.

In this case report, secukinumab therapy for spondyloarthritis was associated with the development of alopecia areata in a 46-year-old woman, which improved after discontinuing the medication.

This report presents a case of pili torti in a young girl with citrullinemia, a novel association not previously documented.

This case report details atrichia with papular lesions in a 4-year-old girl, highlighting specific histological findings on her scalp and other affected areas.

This paper reviews Satoyoshi syndrome and suggests diagnostic criteria to differentiate its subtypes, emphasizing the importance of testing alopecia areata patients for antinuclear antibodies, muscle spasms, and diarrhea.

This study found that loss of the Pten gene in Lgr5+ hair follicle stem cells promoted squamous cell carcinoma formation through the Akt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This study found that Sonic hedgehog pathway expression strongly correlates with tail regeneration in house geckos, peaking early and decreasing afterward.
