This report describes early and late stages of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in two Black women, highlighting progression from a small to a large central patch of hair loss.

This case report details a 73-year-old woman with systemic sarcoidosis, whose scalp biopsy revealed features consistent with both sarcoidosis and frontal fibrosing alopecia, emphasizing the necessity of biopsy in complex alopecia diagnoses.

This community service event in Malang, Indonesia, reported positive responses to using virgin coconut oil and fish oil as supportive therapy for treating fungal infections in cats, promoting hair regeneration, and educating pet owners.

This study found that treating hair with ATS, formed from fumaric acid and cysteamine, effectively improved hair quality by increasing moisture content and altering the internal structure of strong curls.

This article introduces a new grading system called the FPHL Severity Index to better identify and monitor early stages of female pattern hair loss using clinical criteria.

This source reports that SET may offer notable cosmetic improvements and enhance well-being for patients with CA, serving as a cost-effective treatment option either alone or alongside hair transplantation.

This study found that CRISPR/Cas9 efficiently edited two cellulose synthase-like genes in spinach, significantly altering root hair growth patterns and suggesting potential for large-scale genome editing in this crop.

This review describes recent advances in the study of epidermal stem cells and their importance in regenerative medicine and skin tissue engineering, but provides no new clinical results.

This study developed a new method to analyze Cantú syndrome mutations in KATP channels, finding that while Kir6.1 mutations increase sensitivity to potassium channel openers, SUR2B mutations show reduced sensitivity, but both result in marked hyperpolarization compared to wild-type channels under basal conditions.

This case report describes a 50-year-old woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia who showed no improvement despite multiple treatments, including intralesional triamcinolone and topical glucocorticoids.

This study found that using fenugreek seed extract significantly reduced ovarian volume, cyst size, and prolactin levels in women with PCOS over 12 weeks, with the majority achieving regular menstrual cycles and improved insulin sensitivity.

In this review, cosmetic practices such as non-ablative lasers, autologous fat injections, and oral isotretinoin may help alleviate certain symptoms of frontal fibrosing alopecia, while treatments like deep chemical peels and ablative laser therapies are contraindicated due to potential scarring risks.

In this case report, the authors describe a rare cystic panfolliculoma in an 84-year-old man's right conchal bowl, noting its potential to mimic other tumors like basal cell carcinoma, which complicates diagnosis.

This study identifies a new mutation in the Scd1 gene in a strain of Kunming mice, causing skin and hair defects with the mildest impact among similar mutations.

This study found that selenium therapy could normalize metabolic and endocrine markers and improve clinical outcomes in cystic fibrosis patients, with stable benefits when administered at a lower dosage over a year.

This study found that phenyl-imidazole sulfonamide derivatives, particularly ISCK03, inhibited c-kit signaling and promoted depigmentation in various experimental settings, suggesting potential use as skin-whitening agents.

This theoretical research project proposes the Carnivore Follicular Integrity Framework, suggesting that animal-based diets may support hair follicle stability through various evolutionary and mechanistic pathways.

This study found that the cosmetic olfactory receptor agonist cyclohexyl salicylate may stimulate hair growth and expand stem cell progeny, suggesting potential as a cosmetic adjuvant for hair loss.

In this study, researchers mapped cysteine accessibility in wool keratins and KAPs, revealing that certain cysteines in keratin end domains and Types I and II rod domains are accessible and likely involved in forming disulfide bonds.

This case report describes a patient with Cronkhite–Canada syndrome, where immunosuppression and nutritional support led to disease remission.

This study found that betamethasone valerate in a foam vehicle has comparable total coverage to traditional topical corticosteroid vehicles, despite less coverage per unit of foam.

This pilot study found that a high fat lard diet may protect against fibrosis and affect the hair follicle cycle in a mouse model of systemic sclerosis, unlike a high fat coconut oil diet.

The researchers reported increased ubiquitination of proteins such as the insulin receptor in CYLD cutaneous syndrome skin tumors, suggesting that CYLD dysfunction may affect protein secretion and signaling processes.

This study explored dermatoscopic and histopathologic findings of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia beyond the vertex scalp, suggesting that dermatoscopy might serve as a less invasive diagnostic tool for subclinical disease.

This study identified a subpopulation of neural crest-derived progenitor cells in human corneal endothelial tissue from normal and Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy donors, which may have potential for future cell therapy development.

This study found that C. japonicum flower extract significantly increased melanin content and cellular activity in human melanocytes and may improve follicular depigmentation and vitiligo through cAMP signaling.

This review discusses FAERS data on 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and their potential implications for post-finasteride syndrome, but it does not report any new clinical results.

This study found that de-saponinated Camellia seed cake extract promotes hair growth in vitro and in vivo by enhancing dermal papilla cell proliferation and modulating signaling pathways and growth factor expression.

Mutations in Far2 mice cause hair loss due to sebaceous gland issues.
