We report the case of an 18-month-old boy who developed a phototoxic skin reaction to terbinafine on his scalp, ears, and face in the form of disseminated erythematous plaques, which resembled subacute lupus erythematosus (SCLE) in their clinical presentation. Skin changes appeared a short time after the boy was exposed to sunlight during the period of time when he was treated with oral terbinafine due to Microsporum canis fungal scalp infection. Tinea capitis is a common dermatophyte infection primarily affecting prepubertal children (1).

This study presents a comprehensive analysis of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variations in dogs diagnosed with primary and recurrent tumours, employing Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) for sequencing. Our investigation focused on mtDNA extracted from blood and tumour tissues of three dogs, aiming to pinpoint polymorphisms, mutations, and heteroplasmy levels that could influence mitochondrial function in cancer pathogenesis. Notably, we observed the presence of mutations in the D-loop region, especially in the VNTR region, which may be crucial for mitochondrial replication, transcription, and genome stability, suggesting its potential role in cancer progression.

: Canine behavior plays an important role in the success of the human-dog relationship and the dog's overall welfare, making selection for behavior a vital part of any breeding program. While behaviors are complex traits determined by gene × environment interactions, genetic selection for desirable behavioral phenotypes remains possible. : No genomic association studies of dog behavior to date have been reported on a commercial breeding (CB) cohort; therefore, we utilized dogs from these facilities ( = 615 dogs).

Prion diseases, or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), are a group of invariably fatal neurodegenerative disorders. One of the candidate genes involved in prion diseases is the shadow of the prion protein () gene. Raccoon dogs, a canid, are considered to be a prion disease-resistant species.
