ABSTRACT Background Canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) is a multifactorial, inherited skin disease, estimated to affect ≤ 15% of dogs. Studies of skin messenger mRNA in cAD currently use invasive methods, including blood sampling and biopsy collection, whilst advances in human atopic dermatitis study methodology have demonstrated reliable use of minimally ...

ABCA12 Frameshift Deletion in Domestic Cats With Ichthyosis Fetalis
ABSTRACT Background Ichthyosis fetalis (IF), also known as harlequin ichthyosis, is a rare and often fatal autosomal recessive congenital skin disorder. It is characterized by thickened, hard skin plaques and deep skin fissures that limit mobility and cause malformations of the eyes, lips and ears.

Dermatophytes can be isolated from both symptomatic and asymptomatic cats, yet the role of skin commensals in modulating disease expression remains unclear. This study investigates whether microbial skin communities influence the clinical presentation (symptomatic or asymptomatic) of dermatophyte infection in Persian cats.

Leishmania Extracellular Vesicles as a Preventive Vaccine Platform Against Leishmaniasis
The potential of Leishmania‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) as a vaccine platform was investigated, emphasizing an affordable, GMP‐compliant production and purification method. Immunization with EV vaccines, either unadjuvanted or combined with α‐galactosylceramide (αGC), induced robust humoral and cellular immune responses, conferring protection ...

Seagrass Posidonia oceanica seeds host diverse bacterial and fungal endophytes with plant‐growth–promoting traits, including nitrogen fixation and hormone production. These microbes may be vertically transmitted and support seedling establishment, offering insights for marine plant conservation and biotechnological applications.
