This case report describes a unique instance of late-onset Björnstad syndrome in an 18-year-old female, mimicking androgenetic alopecia, and indicates potential improvement with JAK inhibitor baricitinib, highlighting the need for considering this syndrome in similar cases of patterned hair loss in young individuals.

In this study, researchers found that reducing FGF20 expression in dermal papilla cells of fine-wool sheep impedes the growth and differentiation of hair follicle stem cells, providing insights into wool trait improvement and regenerative medicine applications.

This prospective study observed that low-dose oral minoxidil improved anterior hairline and eyebrow coverage in adult women with frontal fibrosing alopecia and was generally well-tolerated.

This study concluded that the Free Androgen Index (FAI) could serve as a reliable biomarker for hyperandrogenism in women with androgenetic alopecia, showing more predictive value than testosterone or SHBG alone.

This study reported that oral isotretinoin effectively stabilized frontal fibrosing alopecia in patients, which may help guide healthcare providers in managing this condition related to hair loss and self-esteem.

This review covers the history, incidence, and treatment options for pseudofolliculitis barbae and presents new data, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, intralesional triamcinolone acetonide injections were associated with halting the progression of frontal fibrosing alopecia in female patients and showed minimal adverse effects, but the efficacy as sole therapy remains unclear pending further trials.

The Brigham Eyebrow Tool for Alopecia is a simple and reliable way to measure eyebrow hair loss.

This study found that the fuzzy mutation in mice is linked to both structural hair defects and accelerated hair follicle cycling, influencing the regulation of hair cycle phases such as catagen and anagen.

This study reports that women receiving periodic injections of botulinum toxin type A for forehead wrinkles may experience frontal alopecia, with progressive hairline recession observed in the cases studied.

This study identified 2574 differentially expressed genes in the hair follicles of Wan strain Angora rabbits, suggesting that these genes may influence wool fiber diameter and quality.

In this in vitro study, baicalin promoted human hair follicle growth, potentially by enhancing VEGF secretion by dermal papilla cells.

This study suggests bicalutamide may be effective in reducing hair loss severity in female pattern hair loss, particularly when other antiandrogen therapies are less effective due to hyperandrogenic conditions.

This study identified fibroblast growth factor 18 in various components of canine hair follicles and other tissues, but found no significant differences in its presence across seasons, body regions, or sexes in beagle dogs.

Bardet-Biedl syndrome may include under-recognized skin problems related to its metabolic disturbances.

This study reports cases of histopathologically proven cutaneous lupus erythematosus manifesting as frontal fibrosing alopecia, with improvement following treatment with oral hydroxychloroquine and/or intralesional triamcinolone acetonide.

Woman has discoid lupus, frontal fibrosing, and androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that endogenous EGF may play a role in epidermal development and wound healing, while the absence of bFGF in embryonic rats' skin could contribute to non-scar healing.

This study found that patients with Fibromyalgia Syndrome had more frequent skin symptoms and lower quality of life compared to controls, suggesting the need for a multidisciplinary treatment approach.

This study proposes that seasonal alopecia and reproductive changes in six female fossas at the San Diego Zoo may be linked to hormonal changes associated with reproductive activity.

This study found that patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia had significantly more titanium-containing nanoparticles in their hair compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential environmental influence.

The BASP classification helps predict patient behavior and improve treatment for hair loss.

This review found that intralesional corticosteroid injections and 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors were reported as the most effective treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia, with oral isotretinoin showing promise for facial papule improvement.

This article is a letter to the editor about fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution and reports no new research findings.

This letter details a case report on platelet-rich plasma treatment for a patient with treatment-resistant frontal fibrosing alopecia, but it does not provide new clinical results.

This study reports that a heparin-based sericin hydrogel encapsulating basic fibroblast growth factor significantly accelerated wound healing in mice by enhancing vascularization, re-epithelialization, and collagen deposition.

This study observed that in human scalp hair follicles, BTNL2 expression is lower in stressed conditions, which correlates with increased cytotoxic activity by gamma/delta and CD8+ T cells, suggesting a possible role for BTNL2 in controlling immune responses relevant to alopecia areata.

This study found that for thyroid cancer patients who underwent radical mastectomy, the combination of CAF regimen and fufangbanmao capsule improved short-term clinical efficacy, enhanced immune function, reduced drug toxicity, and positively impacted quality of life compared to the CAF regimen alone.

This study reported that Cosmos caudatus extract alone may therapeutically modulate the AR–FGF-2 axis in a BPH rat model, comparable to finasteride, but combining them disrupted pathway regulation, increasing TGF-β levels.
