This study observed variable therapeutic responses in dogs with Alopecia X, with some showing complete hair regrowth while others did not, following similar treatments including orchiectomy and supplementation.

This review discusses the state-of-the-art knowledge on pseudoxanthoma elasticum, summarizing recent advancements in genetics, pathomechanisms, and potential treatments but reports no new clinical findings.

This study reports on eight previously unpublished cases of Bohring-Opitz syndrome with ASXL1 mutations, suggesting the importance of screening for Wilms tumors in these patients.

This study found that the X-linked gene UTX is crucial for regulating skin differentiation and inflammation in females by affecting retinoic acid signaling, also highlighting potential links to sex disparities in skin diseases.

This study found that Arabidopsis thaliana plants developed longer root hairs under low phosphorus conditions, suggesting auxin involvement in this adaptive response.

This study found that keratin 15 expression in trichoepitheliomas and some basal cell carcinomas suggests a link to hair follicle stem cells in the bulge.

This review provides an overview of the hairless gene in mice and humans, discussing its structure, expression, and implications for understanding skin physiology and human disorders related to gene disruption, but it reports no new empirical findings.

This study suggests that biotin therapy may be beneficial for individuals with partial biotinidase deficiency, as some developed symptoms later, which resolved with treatment.

In randomized controlled trials, this research reports that cyclosporin is as effective as glucocorticoids for treating canine atopic dermatitis and has potential benefits for other immune-mediated skin conditions in dogs.

This study found that both Th1 and Th2 immune responses, along with IL-23 and IL-32 cytokine pathways, are active in alopecia areata lesions, and corticosteroid injections significantly altered these immune markers.

This research observed that triamcinolone was more effective at inducing remission in cats with pemphigus foliaceus without significant side effects compared to prednisone or its combination with chlorambucil.

This study found that terbinafine HCl nail solutions with or without DDAIP HCl significantly outperformed ciclopirox nail lacquer in treating guinea pig dermatophytosis, suggesting potential effectiveness for human nail infections.

This study found that ethanol's ability to block long-term potentiation in rat hippocampal slices is influenced by neurosteroids that enhance GABA A receptor activity.

This study found that nuclear beta-catenin, LEF1, and PHLDA1 expression was conserved in matrical tumors, suggesting a shared tumorigenesis process involving Wnt pathway activation.

This retrospective study documented various skin diseases in alpacas, reporting bacterial infections as the most common, along with other conditions described for the first time.

This study introduced a bioengineered model that simulates acne's microenvironment in mice, enabling the exploration of host and P. acnes interactions and presenting a novel platform for anti-acne drug and vaccine screening.

This article describes a case of multiple perifollicular fibromas and suggests that cases previously reported as such might actually be instances of Birt‐Hogg‐Dubé syndrome.

This study found that premature desquamation of the inner root sheath is a non-specific histologic feature in scarring alopecia and cannot be used alone to define central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.

This study found that the collagen-binding fusion protein PTH-CBD significantly improved hair regrowth and follicle health in mice after chemotherapy, suggesting potential as a therapy for chemotherapy-induced alopecia.

This study found that Akt2 and SGK3 are crucial for postnatal hair follicle development in mice, as their combined absence led to severe hair growth defects due to disrupted β-catenin-dependent transcriptional processes.

This report documented the first known case of Malassezia slooffiae-associated dermatitis identified in a goat through diagnostic work-up, including histology and DNA sequencing.

This case report documents a rare instance of Rapunzel syndrome causing biliary obstruction in a 3-year-old girl, highlighting the importance of considering trichobezoar in cholestasis diagnosis.

This article discusses the development of non-myeloablative stem cell transplants, which may expand the safe treatment range of allogeneic SCT, but presents no new clinical results.

This case report observed that a selenium-deficient diet in a child with propionic acidaemia led to macrocytosis and hair abnormalities, which improved with selenium supplementation.

Among women with polycystic ovary syndrome, this study found that oral contraceptives containing 20 μg ethinyl estradiol had similar effects on androgen levels as those containing 30 μg.

This study observed that overexpression of the enzyme ODC in transgenic mice caused hair loss and skin changes similar to human papular atrichia, suggesting that ODC might be involved in a critical hair follicle function pathway.

This study observed that oclacitinib, combined with oral glucocorticoids, achieved rapid and lasting clinical remission in four dogs with refractory juvenile-onset ischaemic dermatopathy, suggesting oclacitinib's potential as a useful immunosuppressive treatment in such cases.

This report documents a 14-year-old Chinese boy with mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, stroke-like episodes, and a de novo A3243G mitochondrial DNA mutation, highlighting the condition's multisystem involvement without ragged red fibers in muscle biopsy.

This review discusses the link between androgen receptor action and TMPRSS2 expression in severe COVID-19, exploring the potential of anti-androgens to mitigate disease severity in men and notes ongoing trials.

In this clinical study, the use of potentiated zinc pyrithione shampoo improved scalp health and hair surface characteristics, suggesting that unhealthy scalp conditions may negatively impact pre-emergent hair's cuticle surface.
