This study found that Thai males with androgenic alopecia displayed lower average hair density in the occipital scalp compared to other Asian populations, but higher than those with advanced AGA.

This case report provides the first evidence of clinical and histopathological findings of cutaneous diffuse basaloid follicular hamartomas in a young domestic short hair cat.

This article reviews the anatomical complexity and developmental aspects of hair follicles for analyzing abnormalities, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers observed that acne and hirsutism were the most common cutaneous manifestations in Indian women with PCOS, but these did not correlate with the number of ovarian follicles.

This study found that women with PCOS have higher follicular fluid levels of testosterone and IL-6, despite similar NEFA levels to non-PCOS women, suggesting increased lipotoxicity impact on androgenesis in PCOS.

Recent studies highlighted in this research suggest that alopecia types in men, traditionally thought to affect only certain scalp areas, can also impact the occipital region, which was previously presumed unaffected.

This study found that all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) inhibits proliferation and promotes apoptosis in secondary hair follicle-derived dermal papilla cells from cashmere goats, likely via the TGF-β2/Smad2/3 signaling pathway.

This review discusses the reproductive challenges and potential pathophysiological mechanisms related to anorexia nervosa, noting possible long-term effects on fertility and pregnancy outcomes.

The study observed that in women, the number of hair follicles with an internal root sheath decreases with age in the parietal region, also hinting at a reduction in hair follicle and shaft width.

This study classified frontal fibrosing alopecia patients into three clinical patterns, finding that pattern III had the best prognosis and pattern II the worst after treatment with dutasteride and corticosteroids.

The microstrip technique for hair transplantation is effective and discreet for patients needing fewer than 1500 grafts.

In this study of Angora goats, researchers found that HOXC13 and other genes were overexpressed during the active hair growth phase, suggesting a role in mohair structure.

In this study, researchers developed and tested a novel peptide, AMHR2BP, which mimics the function of Anti-Müllerian hormone to protect ovarian follicles in mice, showing promise for preserving ovarian health during chemotherapy without causing toxicity.

This review discusses androgenetic alopecia and reports no clinical findings; the authors highlight a need for further research.

Higher IGF-1 levels in hair follicles link to better finasteride results for hair loss.

This study found that the prevalence of polycystic ovarian morphology is high among women aged 21-45 with acne and/or androgenic alopecia, especially in those with combined dermatological symptoms.

This study describes the anatomy of arrector pili muscles in scalp hair follicular units, proposing a model where a single muscle structure is shared by all follicles within a unit.

This study found that testosterone impacts hair follicles from both affected and occipital regions in male pattern androgenetic alopecia, but with different androgen response-profiles, challenging the belief that occipital regions are androgen-insensitive.

This review highlights the potential of follicular targeting as a novel approach for treating hirsutism, focusing on its ability to improve outcomes and reduce side effects, but reports no new clinical results.

This case study details a 26-year-old male with depilating folliculitis, emphasizing its higher prevalence in warmer climates and showing good treatment response.

This study suggests that a specific region upstream of the TGF-β1 gene may play a key role in androgenetic alopecia by regulating gene expression in a cell-specific manner.

This study reports a case of cystic panfolliculoma, highlighting the role of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions in its pathogenesis and explaining its histological resemblance to trichofolliculoma.

In this case study, a 74-year-old patient with frontal fibrosing alopecia displayed unique trichoscopic and histopathological features, and treatments like 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and oral minoxidil effectively halted disease progression, highlighting the importance of comprehensive facial analysis for prognosis.

This study found that, in Japanese patients with androgenic alopecia, sebaceous glands exhibit increased multilobulation which may be significant in the condition's pathology.

This study found that postmenopausal women in Argentina with frontal fibrosing alopecia had a higher average age of diagnosis than previously reported, with similar clinical features to international cases.

This study found decreased hair density and altered follicular architecture in the balding frontal scalp of patients with androgenic alopecia, with increased vellus hairs noted.

This study identified a unique transcriptional signature in occipital hair follicles that may protect them from miniaturization in androgenetic alopecia, using an animal-free model to investigate gene roles.

This paper reflects on the challenges and progress in hair restoration, highlighting ongoing efforts for improvement but providing no new empirical findings.

This study observed that cells from androgen-sensitive areas like the beard and scrotum showed higher androgen receptor levels compared to those from non-balding scalp areas, supporting the role of dermal papilla in follicle growth responses to androgens.
