This study identified four circulating microRNAs as highly predictive of frontal fibrosing alopecia status, suggesting potential roles in diagnostics and disease understanding.

This article discusses central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, noting its prevalence in women of African descent and highlighting the need for further genetic research to improve treatment options; it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, the researchers observed that treatment with intralesional and topical corticosteroids, finasteride, and minoxidil may stop the progression of frontal fibrosing alopecia in postmenopausal and premenopausal women.

This study found that the VEGF +405G/C polymorphism may be an inheritable risk factor for polycystic ovary syndrome in south Indian women.

This review highlights the potential of TCM medicinal foods for managing post-COVID disorders and suggests they could provide a safe and efficient long-term therapy due to their milder nature.

In this study, researchers found that inhibiting IKKα in patient-derived CCS tumour models reduces tumour viability, supporting the potential for topical IKKα inhibitors as a treatment for CCS.

This study used Cisd2 knockout mice models and found that these mice display premature aging characteristics and an increase in dysfunctional neutrophils, suggesting Cisd2's role in calcium homeostasis and neutrophil function via interactions with Calnexin and SERCA.

Enhancing Factor is found in growing tissues like young mouse intestines and skin but not in adults.

In this case report, a female patient with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome and hidradenitis suppurativa showed significant improvement in symptoms, including hair loss and lesions, after six months of treatment with tofacitinib, with no recurrence or adverse effects over a two-year follow-up.

This study identified a novel gene, hacl-1, that is specifically expressed in the hair follicles of ICR mouse skin and is associated with their active state.

This study identified mutations in the FGF5 gene as a cause of extreme eyelash growth in Pakistani families, highlighting a potential target for regulating eyelash growth.

This study suggests that human trichohyalin may function as a flexible rod linking keratin intermediate filaments and as a scaffold protein in hair follicle and epidermis cell envelopes.

This study found that human trichohyalin has a unique protein sequence potentially contributing to at least three important functions in hair follicle and epidermal cells.

This article reviews the pathogenesis of frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting the potential genetic and environmental contributions, particularly the use of sunscreens, and calls for further research into effective treatments.

This study demonstrates that FMOD deficiency in mice alters TGF-β ligand and receptor expression during wound healing stages, leading to delayed wound closure and increased scar size.

This study found that dermoscopy of the axilla in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia revealed significantly higher odds of brownish peripillary halos, suggesting a diagnostic clue for the condition in this region.

This report discusses the use of intralesional cidofovir and suggests it might be a viable option for treating SCC due to its successful outcome without observed systemic toxicity in this case.

This study found that loss of the Pten gene in Lgr5+ hair follicle stem cells promoted squamous cell carcinoma formation through the Akt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This study suggests that allergens like linalool found in personal care products may contribute to the pathobiology of frontal fibrosing alopecia by affecting immune responses and stem cell function in hair follicles.

In this study, 2′‐Fucosyllactose (2′‐FL) administration significantly reduced hair loss and increased hair length and thickness in a testosterone-induced androgenic alopecia mouse model, suggesting potential as a therapeutic agent for AGA.

This study observed that β-catenin overexpression in human squamous cell carcinoma cells led to increased CREB expression, which significantly enhanced clonogenic activity, suggesting CREB as a β-catenin-regulated factor promoting cancer characteristics.

This study identified CCCA in 10 children of African descent, highlighting the occurrence of this scarring alopecia in patients under 18 and the importance of early diagnosis for better outcomes.

This case report suggests a possible association between long-term finasteride use for male pattern baldness and the development of cataracts and intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome in a patient.

This study demonstrated that CD19-CAR T cell therapy may promote structural regeneration in the skin of systemic sclerosis patients, as evidenced by histological improvements and fibroblast population changes, suggesting its potential for tissue remodeling in fibrotic diseases.

Certain drugs and supplements may contribute to hair loss in the frontal hairline in older women.

This study reported significant transcriptomic changes in keratinocyte and immune cell populations in a mouse model with EGFR-deficient epidermis, suggesting possible targets for mitigating adverse skin events in EGFR-targeted cancer therapy.

This case study describes a 40-year-old man diagnosed with pilotropic mycosis fungoides, a form of folliculotropic cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of hair follicles and eccrine glands.

This study used confocal Raman microscopy to confirm optical similarity between human and porcine hair follicles, supporting its use in assessing trans-follicular drug delivery.
