This brief report describes a case of Fox-Fordyce disease in a prepubertal girl but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that the 15-PGDH inhibitor DPP improved endothelial function in hair-related cells exposed to DHT by reducing oxidative stress and enhancing angiogenic capacity.

This study suggests that true binary and ternary inclusion complexes were formed between finasteride and 2-hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin, with or without the addition of specific polymers.

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.

This study found that combining plasma rich in growth factors with conventional treatment significantly improved hair regrowth and reduced symptoms in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia compared to conventional treatment alone.

This study found that Compound Diandao Pulvis Drug Facial Mask improved some signs of acne in a rabbit ear model, but its effects were not significantly different from tretinoin cream.

This study reported that canine dermal papilla cells showed a distinct growth pattern and strong collagen IV and laminin staining compared to dermal fibroblasts.

This case report details a rare instance of granulomatosis disciformis chronica et progressiva affecting both skin and lymph node tissue in a 31-year-old man.

This research highlights significant advancements in forensic DNA phenotyping, enabling predictions of physical traits, ancestry, and age from crime scene DNA, but notes that further research and validation are needed for greater accuracy and reliability.

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 study found that frontal fibrosing alopecia involves distinct molecular changes, such as downregulation of steroid and cholesterol pathways and upregulation of fibrotic and immune response genes, which may help guide treatment strategies.

In this study, overexpression of ornithine decarboxylase accelerated basal cell carcinoma in Ptch1+/– mice under UVB exposure, while its inhibition reduced tumor induction, suggesting potential chemoprevention strategies in humans.

This study found that Pdgfα signaling is crucial for maintaining dermal adipose tissue in mice by initiating dermal adipocyte stem cell proliferation, with implications for age-related skin defects.

This study reported that while various treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia showed limited effectiveness, dutasteride most effectively stabilized the condition among patients at Duke University.

Farudodstat may help treat alopecia areata by protecting hair follicles.

This study classified frontal fibrosing alopecia patients into three clinical patterns, finding that pattern III had the best prognosis and pattern II the worst after treatment with dutasteride and corticosteroids.

This study found that diphenylcyclopropenone therapy resulted in over 50% hair regrowth in 71% of alopecia totalis patients, with a significant relapse association with thyroid disease, suggesting treatment could be viable but should continue for at least two years.

This study found that porcine platelet-rich plasma can be a commercially viable replacement for fetal bovine serum with similar effectiveness in promoting human hair follicle cell growth.

This review examines experimental and clinical evidence on PDRN, a drug derived from salmon DNA that acts via the adenosine A2A receptor and shows promise for tissue repair and treatment of diabetic foot ulcers in regenerative medicine.

This report details a refined hair transplantation method called direct no-shave follicular unit excision (DNS FUE), which avoids donor-site shaving and minimizes follicular trauma while yielding high patient satisfaction.

This study found that both new and old formulas of DCP for treating alopecia areata resulted in similar hair regrowth, but tolerance was significantly better with DCP in isopropanol.

This study identified SFRP2 and PTGDS as potential biomarkers for female pattern hair loss, finding these genes consistently upregulated in bald hair follicles from all 18 patients, which may contribute to understanding the condition's pathogenesis and developing targeted treatments.

This study found that deleting podoplanin in mouse keratinocytes promoted hair follicle growth during regeneration, suggesting it may regulate hair cycling pathways that could aid in treating hair loss conditions.

This review discusses existing forensic DNA phenotyping panels for biogeographical ancestry and externally visible characteristics and highlights major technical limitations, including terminology issues, genetic knowledge gaps, and technological debates; it reports no new results.

This review discusses the pedicled temporoparietal fascial flap for head and neck reconstruction, detailing its anatomy, technique, complications, and sustained relevance despite newer microvascular methods; it reports no new clinical results.

Finasteride is advertised directly to consumers for treating male pattern hair loss.

TCDD changes skin gene expression and may harm skin health.

This study found that inhibiting DPP4 during a critical period post-wounding increases hair follicle regeneration and Wnt signaling in large skin wounds.

The study concluded that fatty acid transport protein 4 in epidermal keratinocytes is crucial for maintaining normal skin structure, as its deficiency led to hyperkeratosis and epidermal barrier disruption in mice.
