This case report describes a 35-year-old woman with diffuse partial woolly hair occurring alongside epidermolysis bullosa with mottled pigmentation.

In this study, the expression of certain hair follicle-related genes differed between growth phases in Angora goats, with HOXC13 showing overexpression during the anagen phase, potentially influencing the mohair's shine and texture.

This study explored hair follicle gene expression in Inner Mongolia Cashmere goats and identified potential regulators of the transition between growth phases, including IL17RB and ZNF genes.

This case report documents the first instance of recurrent flank alopecia in a Tibetan Terrier, diagnosed alongside atopic dermatitis.

This study found that Wan strain Angora rabbits with high wool production had higher hair follicle density and identified five long noncoding RNAs as potential regulators of this trait.

This study observed that hair loss in captive rhesus macaques varies with season, sex, and housing conditions, and is significantly correlated with HPA axis activity as indicated by faecal cortisol metabolites.

This case report observed that nutritional adjustments improved alopecia caused by finely ground feed in a flock of sheep.

This review discusses adrenal gland disease in ferrets, exploring its signs, potential contributing factors, and current treatment options, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this report, the researchers described a follicular dysplastic syndrome in two adult white-tailed deer, where gross alopecia and histologic signs suggestive of alopecia areata were observed, potentially predisposing affected deer to environmental exposure.

This animal study observed that while topical MBEH and intraperitoneal phenol induced hair graying in eumelanic mice, they had little effect on pheomelanic mice, and amcinonide reduced certain epidermal melanocytes in both.

In this study, researchers used transcriptome sequencing to identify 1543 differentially expressed genes between cashmere and normal goats, implicating several signaling pathways and key regulators in the distinct gene expression profiles linked to cashmere fiber production, which advances understanding of cashmere goat genetics.

This article discusses the clinical features, differential diagnosis, and natural history of loose anagen syndrome in children but reports no new clinical findings.

This study observed that patients with different types of alopecia exhibited variable epidermal thickness and consistent dermal changes, including hair follicle destruction and lymphohistiocytic infiltrates, which may suggest inflammation.

In this study, exotic lice were found to be widespread among mule deer in California, with younger age classes and low blood selenium concentrations being significantly associated with infestation.

East and Southeast Asians typically have less dense but thicker, straight black hair.

This chapter discusses atypical endocrinopathies affecting the hair and skin in small animals and provides treatments but does not present new research results.

This study found that medullary cell content in mammal hair evolves from an amorphous form to a biphasic phase, with human and anthropoid hair containing both macrofibrils and microfibrils.

This study identified 4,942 differentially expressed genes and key candidate genes involved in the hair follicle development and cashmere quality differences between Jiangnan and Changthangi goats, highlighting potential molecular targets for genetic improvement of cashmere goats.

This study found that supplementing Angora goats with whole field bean seeds postpartum did not prevent weight and body condition losses but was associated with improved mohair growth and kid weight gain, likely due to better nutrient partitioning towards lactation and hair growth.

Ludwig pattern hair loss results from varying androgen sensitivity, causing fewer thick hairs and more thin hairs.

This study reports that a new nude allele, nu(StL), encodes a truncated Whn transcription factor affecting T-cell development and keratin gene expression, with notable differences from the original Whn(nu) mutation.

This study describes cases of diffuse alopecia and thyroid alterations in sheep, linking selenium and zinc deficiencies to decreased serum T3 and T4 concentrations and related skin conditions.

This study suggests that abnormal hair cycles in Hr mutant mice may be caused by HR protein overexpression, which down-regulates miR-31 and increases Tgf-β2 expression.

This study found that NIH hairless mice exhibit abnormalities in hair growth and immune-related pathways, with Pik3r1 and Pik3r3 identified as key genes for further investigation.

This study found that overexpression and knockdown of DKK4 influence genes involved in hair follicle growth and development in Angora rabbits and identified specific SNPs in DKK4 associated with wool quality, notably showing that the TT/GG haplotype combination relates to higher fibre diameters.

In this case report, a young male beagle diagnosed with canine eosinophilic dermatitis, characterized by intraepidermal pustules and itchy skin, showed significant improvement with prednisolone treatment without recurrence, contrasting with common reports of recurrence in similar cases.

In this study, researchers found that the SLICK1 allele in cattle may alter local immune regulation, hair growth, and tissue remodeling, as indicated by differential gene expression pathways associated with immune and inflammatory responses in slick vs. nonslick Holsteins.

This study examined prenatal and postnatal development of rat skin, observing marked changes in epidermal thickness and collagen fiber distribution as the rats aged.
