This study found that NFI-C plays a crucial role in the transition from the telogen to anagen phase of the hair follicle cycle, affecting hair growth initiation in mice.

This study reports that variation in the ovine TCHH gene may influence wool fibre curvature, with specific gene variants affecting the mean fibre curvature in sheep.

This report describes three cases of erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli showing significant improvement in facial telangiectasia following treatment with a 595-nm pulsed dye laser, with minimal recurrence observed during follow-up.

This study reported that in a histopathologic analysis of five parenteral heroin users with candida folliculitis, candida and pseudohyphae were frequently found in association with hair follicles.

This study found that dermoscopy combined with calcium fluorescent white staining effectively aided in the early diagnosis and treatment evaluation of tinea capitis by highlighting specific hair changes and fluorescent patterns associated with different dermatophyte infections in a sample of 20 patients.

This correspondence discusses proposed updates to the diagnostic criteria for frontal fibrosing alopecia, emphasizing the importance of differentiating it from other types of alopecia.

This study observed that hair fibers in older women become more curved with age, decreasing hair luster due to their disordered alignment and structural differences between the convex and concave sides.

This study found that lncRNA H19 may regulate CTGF expression in KGN cells by acting as a "sponge" for miR-19b, potentially influencing polycystic ovary syndrome development.

This review discusses the challenges of managing intraoperative floppy iris syndrome during cataract surgery and highlights the importance of preoperative risk assessment and multidisciplinary collaboration, reporting no new clinical results.

A new test helps find drugs to treat head and neck cancer by targeting c-Rel.

This study successfully cloned and characterized the LEF-1 gene from Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats, potentially aiding efforts to enhance cashmere production through genetic modification.

This study observed that mice with a whole-body deficiency of Cystathionine-β-synthase developed severe hyperhomocysteinemia and related mild symptoms without increased mortality, indicating HHCy may not directly cause end organ damage.

Entadfi, a mix of finasteride and tadalafil, is used for BPH.

This study identified a new heterozygous missense variant in CST6 associated with autosomal dominant keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans in an Austrian family, affecting epidermal differentiation and hair formation.

This study describes trichoscopic findings in 11 dark-skinned women with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia and highlights the potential of trichoscopy for early diagnosis and treatment.

Topical tofacitinib helped a man with severe scalp condition after other treatments failed.

Frontal fibrosing alopecia may be caused by an autoimmune reaction and hormonal imbalance.

This article discusses features, genetics, and diagnostic challenges of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African American women but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that topical tacalcitol improved roughness and scaling in erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli, although it was less effective for facial erythema.

This report describes early and late stages of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in two Black women, highlighting progression from a small to a large central patch of hair loss.

Human growth factor 20 can boost mouse whisker growth.

This case report highlights that CCCA can present with multifocal patchy hair loss in younger men of African descent, suggesting the need for careful evaluation when diagnosing atypical alopecia patterns.

This study suggests that patients with severe, extensive central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia may exhibit a distinct gene expression pattern in the lesional scalp, highlighting potential targets for future research on disease severity and therapies.

This study identifies cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) as a key extracellular matrix component in human hair follicle cycling, potentially regulated by TGFβ signaling, and suggests its importance in normal hair follicle biology.

This study found that certain C57BL/6 mouse substrains have a genetic vulnerability to skin lesions resembling central centrifugal cicatrical alopecia in humans, potentially worsened by high vitamin A levels.

This study observed that five out of fourteen individuals aged 13-16 years, who were homozygous for the p.C282Y mutation related to hemochromatosis, had increased liver and phlebotomy-mobilized iron levels.

This study found that in fetal skin development, both α- and β-catenins showed similar expression patterns, indicating their related roles in the development of the epidermis and skin appendages.

This article is a letter discussing optical coherence tomography-assisted diagnosis of follicular keratosis of the chin and reports no new research findings.
