This study identified the distribution of keratin-associated proteins during cornification in the epidermis of reptiles, revealing unique structural characteristics in sauropsid keratin proteins compared to other vertebrates.

This study found that the development and differentiation of Merkel cells in C57BL mouse embryos' dorsolateral skin are linked to tylotrich follicle formation rather than to neural influences.

This study identified genetic regions evolving at different rates in hairless mammals, suggesting that specific genomic changes may contribute to the evolution of hairlessness across various species.

Crickets have genetically controlled hair plates that help them sense and move their antennae.

In this study, a two-month-old dog diagnosed with scabiosis and toxocariosis showed significant clinical improvement after being treated with sarolaner and pyrantel, evidenced by resolved skin lesions, hair regrowth, and a return to normal abdominal size and oral mucosa color after 30 days.

This study provides genomic and epigenomic insights into the white wax scale insect, highlighting high methylation levels and differential hormone profiles linked to its sexual dimorphism and developmental differences.

This study found that the Florida worm lizard has lost certain genes associated with claw development, which are present in other lizard species with claws, suggesting a link between the evolution of their limbless body and the loss of claw-related genes.

In this study, researchers developed a method for high-resolution live imaging of leg regeneration in the crustacean Parhyale hawaiensis, which effectively captures the entire process at cellular resolution over 10 days while minimizing photodamage.

In this study, a female dog with ectoparasite infestation was treated for two weeks using wormectin, diphenhydramine, chlorpheniramine maleate, dexamethasone, and amoxicillin, resulting in improved symptoms such as reduced itching, closure of skin ulcers, and hair regrowth.

This study describes unique anatomical characteristics of the skin and hair structures in the silver marmoset, including features such as thin epidermis, specialized nerve end-organs, and distinctive gland compositions.

This monograph outlines a new method for identifying Demodex mites in eyelashes without epilation by rotating the eyelash within its follicle.

In this study, researchers explored the molecular and cellular traits of avian reticulate scales, finding that they lack localized stem cell niches for regeneration, unlike other scale types, leading to repair but not regeneration after wounding.

In this study, mange lesions with alopecia and crusts in masked palm civets in Japan were caused by the mite Notoedres cati.

Mouse tail skin has different keratinization near hair follicles and scales.

This study highlights the loss of hair-type keratin genes in cetaceans compared to terrestrial mammals, suggesting a potential adaptive role linked to their hairless phenotype and habitat changes.

Pax9 is crucial for proper tongue surface development and preventing skin-like changes.

New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.

This study investigated pangolin skin genetics, finding that while sweat gland-related genes are not inactivated, several genes related to sebaceous gland function are, which highlights complex evolutionary adaptations in mammalian skin.

This review discusses the shared molecular and cellular processes in the early development stages of skin appendages like hair follicles, teeth, and mammary glands, reporting no new results.

This study presents a two-photon imaging method to visualize low-threshold mechanoreceptor axon terminals in live mouse forepaw skin, enabling repeated high-resolution imaging to study sensory circuits during development and adulthood.

This study found that LEF1/TCF3 is necessary but not sufficient for TOPGAL activation in hair follicle development, indicating complex regulation in the skin.

In this study, researchers explored how hair follicle orientation is affected in the rosette fancy mouse and found that a mutation in the PCP gene Fzd6 caused reversed hair orientations in the posterior region, leading to the formation of unique whorls.

In this study, researchers found that the deletion of Tet2/3 enzymes in mice led to changes in skin development and hair follicle differentiation, ultimately causing hair loss and altered gene expression.

This paper reviews the evolution of skin appendages and keratin-associated proteins among amniotes, proposing a model for their genetic divergence without new experimental results.

This research found that variations in the KRTAP gene family are likely responsible for the diverse hair phenotypes seen among mammals, influenced by gene repertoire differences, expression, and evolutionary factors.

This study found that Foxn1-like genes in fish and mice are functionally equivalent in activating hair keratin genes, whereas changes in the cephalochordate Foxn1-like gene result in inactivity.

This article discusses the potential role of telocytes in skin regeneration and the need to understand their interaction with platelet-rich plasma, reporting no new experimental results.

This study found that exposure to sex steroid biosynthesis inhibitors increases the expression of piRNA pathway genes in frog larvae, suggesting these genes play a role in gonadal sex differentiation.
