This report describes the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic anserine folliculosis in children, highlighting its distinct skin features and suggesting tretinoin cream as an effective remedy.

This study develops FR-1, a topical small molecule, which reduces scarring and avoids skin atrophy in a murine wound model, showing potential for treating fibrosis without the side effects of current therapies.

This study found that androgen inactivation pathways in scalp sebaceous glands change with age, specifically noting that AKR1C expression, including AKR1C4 previously thought liver-specific, declines with age and is sex dependent, which could impact hair follicle health during aging.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia in asymptomatic young men was associated with increased arterial stiffness, as measured by the cardio-ankle vascular index.

This study examined uncharacterized CYP21A2 gene variants related to non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia and found that several mutations reduce enzyme activity, which may help improve diagnostic and treatment strategies.

This study observed that patients with androgenetic alopecia had significantly higher serum FABP4 levels compared to healthy controls, suggesting FABP4 may be involved in the condition's pathogenesis.

In this animal study, finasteride exposure led to impaired spermatogenesis in rats, while the novel compound DA-9401, derived from three medicinal herbs, demonstrated potential in improving sperm parameters and reducing testicular apoptosis when used alone or with finasteride.

This study found that polycystic ovary syndrome was the most common cause of hirsutism among premenopausal women in Algeria.

This study found that conditioned media from human amniotic fluid-derived stem cells may enhance skin regeneration by promoting cell proliferation and migration, and by modulating gene expressions altered by UV irradiation.

In this study, deleting the Igf1 receptor in specific skin cells of mice affected hair follicle cycling but not overall skin health, suggesting Igf1r's role in hair cycle regulation through Bmp-4 activation.

In this study, topical latanoprost acid applied daily for 6 months increased hair count and improved trichoscopic markers among women with hair loss, suggesting its potential for treating female androgenetic alopecia, particularly at a 0.05% concentration.

This review discusses the acyl-CoA synthetase very-long-chain (ACSVL) enzyme family, including its biochemical characteristics, tissue expression, and involvement in lipid metabolism, but presents no new experimental results.

This editorial response discusses the evidence for using 5-alpha reductase inhibitors in treating frontal fibrosing alopecia, acknowledging its potential benefits while emphasizing the need for further studies to establish it as a standard treatment.

In this study, the researchers developed a quantum algorithm, QuantAnts machines, which identified complexes of CD9, CD34, and CD74 as potential targets for certain cancers involving the RAS pathway.

This study observed that the coexistence of Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia and lupus erythematosus in a patient may suggest a shared pathogenic background.

In a mouse hair-growth model, this study found that the optimized compound 39 matched the efficacy of pyrilutamide for androgenic alopecia, with faster response and maintained safety, suggesting it as a promising topical AR antagonist with reduced systemic toxicity risk.

This study will explore whether combination therapy with either dutasteride or finasteride and an α1 blocker is more effective than monotherapy for treating BPH, but it reports no new results.

This study found that ACOD1 deficiency in dermal papilla cells promotes mitochondrial dysfunction and contributes to cellular senescence in androgenetic alopecia, suggesting ACOD1 as a potential therapeutic target and 4-octyl itaconate as a promising treatment option for AGA.

This systematic review discusses the treatment characteristics and outcomes for frontal fibrosing alopecia specifically in Black patients with skin of color, addressing a gap in clinical evidence due to underrepresentation in studies.

This study found that Fibroblast growth factor-9 (FGF-9) accelerates epithelial invagination in engineered ectodermal organs and suggests its potential role in organogenesis and regeneration research.

This study found that mitochondrial fusion regulator Opa1 is crucial for maintaining melanocyte stem cells during the hair follicle cycle in mice, with Opa1 deficiency leading to impaired SCF-KIT signaling, reduced melanocyte populations, and early hair graying.

This study observed that many couples in North America undergo IUI or IVF for male infertility without specialized male factor evaluations, potentially overlooking reversible causes.

AI and advanced technologies are improving medical diagnostics and treatments.

This study observed that using a 1064 nm Nd: YAG laser may stabilize hair loss and promote new growth in some females with frontal fibrosing alopecia, though individual results varied.

This study reports that high-frequency ultrasound can characterize frontal fibrosing alopecia by assessing dermal atrophy, hair follicle changes, and subclinical inflammation.

In this study, elevated afamin concentrations were associated with metabolic syndrome in young women, particularly those with insulin resistance, suggesting a potential predictive role for afamin in metabolic risk assessment.

This study demonstrated that the Alopecia Areata Disease Activity Index (ALADIN), a new biomarker, strongly correlates with treatment response in patients using JAK inhibitors for alopecia areata.
