This study highlights the successful design of recombinant fortilin constructs for potential drug development targeting atherosclerotic plaque formation in cardiovascular disease.

This study found that daily injections of basic and acidic fibroblast growth factor in newborn mice significantly delayed hair follicle development within the treatment area, while epidermal growth factor affected the entire body coat and caused skin hyperkeratinization.

Activin A speeds up ear hair cell differentiation, while Follistatin slows it down.

The conclusion is that managing hair loss conditions like FFA and melanoma requires individualized approaches, considering new findings and balancing treatment benefits with potential risks.

This review assessed the effectiveness of various treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia and found that intralesional steroids and 5α-reductase inhibitors showed the most positive outcomes in slowing or halting hair loss, though the lack of placebo-controlled studies and consistent outcome measures limits definitive conclusions.

This study found that finasteride may effectively reduce hirsutism in women with idiopathic hirsutism, as evidenced by lower Ferriman-Gallwey scores and hormone levels, without significant adverse effects.

Increased sunscreen use may be linked to frontal fibrosing alopecia in Hispanic females.

This case report suggests that frontal fibrosing alopecia with nail involvement may be associated with lichen planus and improved with oral dutasteride due to an inflammatory reaction related to androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that the film-trigger applicator system enhanced drug delivery efficiency and skin penetration of dissolving microneedles compared to traditional patch systems in both lab and animal models.

This study found that combining optical clearing methods with light-sheet fluorescence microscopy allows detailed 3D visualization of normal and pathological human skin biopsies, revealing differences in epidermal thickness and volume.

In this study, a novel homozygous mutation in the STAT5B gene was identified in a 17-year-old boy with growth hormone-refractory growth failure, severe eczema, and autoimmune disease, suggesting a similarity to known STAT5B deficiency phenotypes.

This case report describes a 46-year-old man diagnosed with frontal fibrosing alopecia, a condition primarily affecting postmenopausal women, highlighting its rare occurrence in men.

In this study, human dermal fibroblast-conditioned medium was found to contain numerous proteins involved in wound repair and hair regeneration, with identified proteins forming interaction networks linked to key signaling pathways like epidermal growth factor receptor and transforming growth factor-β.

Estetrol may help prevent hair loss and support hair growth in women.

This study suggests that miR-182 may play an essential role in hallux valgus development by regulating FGF9 expression, indicating a potential therapeutic target for its treatment.

This study found that finasteride decreased plasma dihydrotestosterone levels and altered steroid metabolism, similar to the profile of male pseudohermaphrodites with inherited 5a-reductase deficiency.

In this study, researchers found that a propylene glycol-free and alcohol-reduced topical foam containing minoxidil and finasteride remained chemically, physically, and microbially stable for 180 days when stored properly at room temperature in light-resistant containers.

The authors find the endoscopic forehead midface lift to be a reliable and safe method for facial rejuvenation.

This study observed two cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia developing on preexisting vitiligo, suggesting a potential causal link between the two conditions.

This case report describes three Iranian men with gradual reddish-brown pigmentation on their cheeks and preauricular areas since childhood, unresponsive to sunblocks and topical steroids.

This study introduced a novel microscopy system using an Er3 + −doped femtosecond fiber laser, achieving detailed imaging of biological structures in plant and skin samples with improved spatial resolution for various applications, including in vivo imaging.

This study found that FGF18 signaling helps protect hair follicles from radiation damage by maintaining the resting phase and supporting stem cell survival, potentially reducing radiation-induced hair loss.

Several companies launched new hair care ingredients in 2011 to improve conditioning, color retention, combability, and heat protection.

In this study, inactivating the TAF4 subunit of transcription factor TFIID in mouse epidermis disrupted gene expression linked to skin and hair function, and increased tumor risk.

This study found that oral administration of Flammulina velutipes polysaccharide reduced tumor volume and improved survival in mice by modulating macrophage polarization and enhancing antitumor immune responses.

This study describes a method for labeling and tracking hair follicle stem cells in mouse skin using a Cre/lox recombination system with tamoxifen, providing insights into stem cell behavior and contribution to tissue regeneration.

Finasteride safely treats enlarged prostate and male-pattern baldness.

In this case report, a woman initially misdiagnosed with rosacea was later correctly diagnosed with frontal fibrosing alopecia after further examination and treated with oral finasteride and hydroxychloroquine to stabilize her condition.

This review discusses frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no clinical results; the authors note that no therapeutic options tested, including corticosteroids, finasteride, and minoxidil, have shown clear benefits.
