This study identifies specific trichoscopic features such as empty follicles and perifollicular erythema in Caucasians with frontal fibrosing alopecia, which may assist in diagnosis and monitoring, but stresses the need for further research due to limited demographic data.

This study found that psychiatric adverse drug reactions were more frequently reported with finasteride than with dutasteride, but it remains unclear if there is a causal relationship.

This study found that canine hair follicle stem cells in vitro expressed markers associated with multipotency, suggesting their potential role in the hair cycle.

This study suggests that combining the 5α-reductase inhibitor 4-MA with the antiandrogen Flutamide may improve prostate cancer therapy by additively inhibiting prostatic growth and androgen-sensitive functions in rats.

This study found that finasteride treatment may decrease contraction of seminal vesicle tissue and alter some semen parameters in male rabbits.

This study identified a novel missense MAFB variant in a family with some unaffected members, suggesting incomplete penetrance and the potential influence of modifier genes, epigenetic mechanisms, or environmental factors on MCTO phenotype.

This review discusses fibrosing frontal alopecia, including its causes, mechanisms, and treatments, and emphasizes the need for further research to improve understanding and treatments; it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers identified four novel variants in the FGF5 gene associated with the long-haired phenotype in dogs, suggesting additional unexplored genetic factors contribute to this trait beyond the known Lh1-Lh5 alleles.

Researchers found an RNA transcript that might help control a growth factor linked to tumor development.

This study found that females with frontal fibrosing alopecia had more preauricular lines than age-matched controls, indicating a potential new clinical marker for the condition.

This study revealed distinct cellular and transcriptomic differences among various subtypes of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, particularly highlighting characteristics unique to folliculotropic mycosis fungoides.

This study found that fig leaf extract significantly downregulated inflammatory and androgenic gene expression in vitro, suggesting potential topical benefits for certain skin disorders.

This study found that the Hr gene loss and positive selection for the FGF5 gene in cetaceans likely contributed to hair loss as these animals adapted to aquatic environments.

This case report describes a patient with a severe pruritic rash and hair loss in both axillary regions, with no fluorescence under a Wood's lamp and hair follicle-centred papules observed through dermoscopy.

In this study of Danioninae species, researchers reported that the presence of breeding tubercles on the pectoral fins is conserved in certain species and linked to local androgen conversion, with steroid 5-α-reductase playing a crucial role in their development.

According to this review, frontal fibrosing alopecia in men exhibits unique clinical features and is often misdiagnosed, underscoring the need for validated diagnostic criteria and treatment evaluation.

In this study, researchers used the CRISPR/Cas9 system to edit the FGF5 gene in Dorper sheep, observing increased density and finer wool, along with changes in cortisol levels and antioxidant enzyme activity linked to hair follicle development.

This study used Density Functional Theory to calculate finasteride's molecular properties, finding the GGA/PW91 method aligns well with experimental data and identifying key reactive sites for chemical interactions.

This study found that low temperatures and nitrogen deficiency trigger root hair elongation through a molecular mechanism involving the receptor kinase FERONIA and the TOR Complex 1.

This study in Asian females found that higher use of moisturizers and sunscreen among FFA patients may reflect appearance concerns rather than indicating a direct link to the disease mechanism.

Early diagnosis of frontal fibrosing alopecia is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss.

This review discusses the current understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia's pathogenesis, highlighting genetic susceptibility, immune response involvement, and possible links to steroid hormones, but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that linalool, a common allergen in personal care products, may contribute to frontal fibrosing alopecia pathogenesis by triggering immune responses and depleting hair follicle stem cells, especially in sensitized individuals.

This study identified a 69 bp deletion in the KRT75 gene as the cause of the frizzle feather trait in chickens, affecting feather curling.

This review discusses the evolving understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia as a generalized skin condition with diverse manifestations, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that FGF signaling is necessary for the initiation of feather placode development in chicken embryos, with FGF10 being implicated as an early dermal signal in the process.

This study found that mouse embryonic fibroblasts better supported the growth and maintenance of LGR5+ epidermal stem cells compared to porcine fetal fibroblasts, under various culture conditions.

This review discusses the possible immune-mediated and environmental factors contributing to frontal fibrosing alopecia but reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing the need for standardized treatment evaluations.

This study found that dermoscopy of the axilla in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia revealed significantly higher odds of brownish peripillary halos, suggesting a diagnostic clue for the condition in this region.

This study found that facial papules and rosacea in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia were linked to a greater need for oral treatment, with most cases involving postmenopausal women.
