This study found that stem cell factor combined with fibronectin and type IV collagen promotes migration of amelanotic melanocytes, which may help explain their movement during vitiligo repigmentation.

This study observed that melatonin significantly increases FGF5 expression in cashmere goat skin, which may influence hair growth-related gene interactions differently than in other animals.

This study generated a transcriptomic map of human hair follicle compartments, providing a database for identifying compartment-specific gene expression which may aid in developing targeted treatments for hair follicle disorders.

This study found that pubic skin fibroblasts respond to androgens, increasing 5α-reductase activity via an androgen receptor-mediated mechanism, suggesting its potential as a marker of androgen action in vitro.

This case report describes a 20-year-old female with favus caused by T. schöenleinii, which initially improved with antifungal treatment but recurred due to poor adherence, underscoring favus as an ongoing health issue in Turkey.

This case study highlights Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli as an easily overlooked pigmentary disorder characterized by a distinctive triad requiring precise diagnosis for effective patient counseling and cosmetic management.

This study found that micro-needling combined with topical 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) was more effective in treating vitiligo patches than topical tacrolimus, with significant improvement observed in six patients, although it caused mild side effects like erythema and irritation.

In this study, sensitization to ethylhexyl salicylate was found in 27.3% of patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting it may be a potential contact allergen for this condition.

In this clinical experience, treating frontal fibrosing alopecia with oral finasteride, hydroxychloroquine, tacrolimus, and excimer laser was associated with optimal results in patients with active inflammation.

This letter to the editor describes a case of postcast hypertrichosis in a patient with frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no new research findings.

This source provides supplementary materials for the Carnivore Follicular Integrity Framework, a theoretical model proposing that animal-based diets may support hair follicle stability through several biological mechanisms. The materials include definitions, nutrient tables, and mechanistic notes but do not report empirical results.

This study found that bulge keratinocytes in mice develop resistance to glucocorticoid treatment more slowly than interfollicular keratinocytes and do not significantly aid in repairing glucocorticoid-induced skin atrophy within five days.

This study developed immortalized cell-based models to screen and evaluate potential hair-care materials by forming hair follicle-like structures that respond to hair growth-promoting compounds.

This study introduces an extended approach to the Bonferroni procedure that accounts for correlations among endpoints, aiming to improve test power while maintaining strong control of the family-wise type I error rate in clinical trials.

This meeting review discusses recent advances in systemic psoriasis treatments, emphasizing the impact of dimethylfumarate monotherapy on understanding psoriasis and treatment strategies; it reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that repeated hair follicle sampling is feasible and reliable for measuring FMR1 mRNA and FMRP in individuals with Fragile X syndrome, supporting its use in longitudinal studies.

This study found that individuals with frontal fibrosing alopecia have increased odds of thyroid disease, lupus erythematous, vitiligo, and heart disease, supporting the consideration of FFA as a systemic disorder.

This study found that treating mouse epidermal neural crest stem cells with EGF and FGF2 increased their proliferation and enhanced their neuronal differentiation potential.

This study found that the small signaling peptide RALF22 plays a key role in root hair growth response to volatile compounds emitted by Penicillium aurantiogriseum through ethylene, auxin, and photosynthesis signaling in Arabidopsis.

In this study, transient transfection of the HIF-1α gene into fibroblasts led to increased VEGF expression, which may enhance the growth and anagen phase of human hair follicles in vitro.

In this study, Fgf20 was found to trigger movement and morphogenesis in dermal fibroblasts, facilitating dermal condensate formation essential for hair follicle development.

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.

This study observed that the osteopontin-derived peptide FOL-005 inhibited hair growth in human scalp skin models, contrary to its hair growth promotion in mice, supporting further clinical testing for excessive hair growth treatment.

This meta-analysis suggests a significant association between the use of facial sunscreen and moisturizer and frontal fibrosing alopecia, while finding no significant relationship with hair products or treatments.

Finasteride 5mg/day improves hair loss in normoandrogenic Asian women.

This study found that finasteride delivered through a nano-transferosomal gel showed improved penetration through skin layers compared to a conventional gel, suggesting a potential alternative for oral administration.

This study identifies NFAT5 as a crucial transcription factor necessary for triggering innate immune responses in the blood vessel lining that lead to atherosclerosis under hypertonic stress conditions.

This study evaluated the 308-nm excimer laser as an adjuvant treatment for frontal fibrosing alopecia and found it may stabilize hairline recession and improve erythema and perifollicular hyperkeratosis, with transient erythema as the only reported adverse effect.
