In this study, researchers found that patients with Friedreich's ataxia exhibited more pronounced ultra-structural hair alterations compared to carriers, likely due to oxidative stress related to deficient frataxin expression.

This study observed that fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution shows varied histological features and may resemble lichen planopilaris with initial diffuse distribution, potentially leading to scarring alopecia.

This article reviews Frambusia, a skin-contact-spread tropical infection, and stresses improving medical professionals' diagnostic and treatment skills to achieve the WHO's eradication target by 2030, without reporting new results.

This study suggests that the C-terminal of AHF is crucial for its binding to keratin bundles and modulating the keratin meshwork in hair follicles.

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 reports that progressive frontal fibrosing alopecia, a distinct and gradually stabilizing form of lichen planopilaris affecting elderly women and often involving eyebrow hair loss, lacks effective treatments.

This study found that FGF5-/- rabbits exhibited a significant long hair phenotype by prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting FGF5 acts as a negative regulator of hair growth.

This article reviews current understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planopilaris, highlighting increasing incidence and unclear pathogenesis, and emphasizes the role of inflammatory destruction of hair follicular stem cells; it reports no new clinical findings.

This editorial response discusses the evidence for using 5-alpha reductase inhibitors in treating frontal fibrosing alopecia, acknowledging its potential benefits while emphasizing the need for further studies to establish it as a standard treatment.

This study identified a recurrent mutation in the endothelin receptor type A associated with mandibulofacial dysostosis with alopecia, and proposed a mechanism involving increased ligand affinity due to structural changes.

Linalool in personal care products may worsen frontal fibrosing alopecia by damaging hair follicle stem cells and triggering harmful immune responses.

In this study, researchers identified a unique variant of alopecia areata characterized by an increase in telogen hair follicles and minimal inflammation present in the microenvironment.

This case report describes frontal fibrosing alopecia in a woman with primary biliary cirrhosis and polymyalgia rheumatica, suggesting a possible autoimmune link to this form of hair loss.

Farudodstat may effectively treat alopecia areata without harming hair follicles.

Farudodstat may effectively treat alopecia areata without harmful side effects.

In this study, Dodatek A operationalizes the Functional Androgen Axis framework by defining three system-level indices and an efficiency metric to describe androgen function, incorporating key methodological improvements and acknowledging significant limitations for future empirical validation.

This case report highlights the importance of trichoscopy in diagnosing fibrosing alopecia in pattern distribution, distinguishing it from female pattern hair loss, and guiding effective treatment.

This case report describes the first observed instance of fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution in a child, suggesting the condition is not solely androgen dependent.

This study suggests that frontal fibrosing alopecia is a highly inflammatory disease involving TH1 and JAK-STAT pathways, without reduced hair keratins, highlighting JAK-STAT signaling as a potential therapeutic target.

This study suggests a potential causal link between frontal fibrosing alopecia and vitiligo, as observed in two cases where the conditions co-occurred on preexisting vitiligo of the forehead.

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.

Finasteride and dutasteride can improve hair loss in women, but more research is needed.

In this study of women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, delgocitinib cream improved the molecular signature of lesions and demonstrated potential as a treatment, showing significant transcriptomic changes and some clinical improvements over 12 weeks compared to a cream vehicle.

A woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia experienced unusual hair growth after using a specific topical lotion.

In this case report, applying linoleic acid topically reversed essential fatty acid deficiency and related skin symptoms in a patient receiving long-term fat-free intravenous nutrition.

This study found that 5-aminolevulinic acid combined with ferric ammonium citrate stimulated hair follicle growth and induced hair-like structures in human hair follicle models, suggesting its potential as a treatment for hair loss.

Red dots on the upper chest may be an early sign of certain types of hair loss.

This study found that a specific genetic mutation in the Fgf5 gene may contribute to the long-hair trait in Angora rabbits by reducing the binding capacity of the FGF5 protein.

This review explores the potential role of caveolin-1 in cicatricial alopecia, particularly frontal fibrosing alopecia, and discusses possibilities for targeted therapies without providing new research results.

This study demonstrated that Forsythiaside A improved survival and reduced neurological deficits in rats with cerebral ischemic injury, potentially through activating Nrf2 and reducing ER stress pathways.
