This review compiles existing data on frontal fibrosing alopecia and highlights the promise of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors as a treatment option, while noting the need for clarity on its cause and progression.

This study found that two microRNAs, oar-miR-23b and oar-miR-133, inhibit the development of hair follicles in superfine wool sheep by targeting genes involved in key signaling pathways, suggesting their potential use as molecular markers for breeding fine wool sheep.

This study found that mouse embryonic fibroblasts better supported the growth and maintenance of LGR5+ epidermal stem cells compared to porcine fetal fibroblasts, under various culture conditions.

This case report observed that terminal hair growth on the nose tip was associated with gefitinib treatment in a 65-year-old woman with lung adenocarcinoma.

This article discusses various treatments for alopecia, including allopathic, homeopathic, and Ayurvedic methods, as well as the traditional use of certain herbs, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no clinical results; the authors note that no therapeutic options tested, including corticosteroids, finasteride, and minoxidil, have shown clear benefits.

This study observed that facial feminization surgery significantly improved facial appearance and alleviated gender dysphoria among Chinese transgender females, with all patients expressing satisfaction post-surgery.

This study found that eyelash loss, facial papules, and body hair involvement were linked to severe frontal fibrosing alopecia, and antiandrogens were the most effective treatment.

This study found that infused mouse epidermal growth factor induced wool follicle involution through a quasi-physiological process similar to catagen and a separate pathological action, resulting in fleece 'break' or shedding.

This article reports a case of frontal fibrosing alopecia in its early inflammatory stage that responded positively to intralesional steroid treatment.

This study introduced a new in vivo angiogenesis assay using Gelfoam implanted in ND-GFP transgenic mice to efficiently identify angiogenesis stimulators and inhibitors through GFP visualization.

In this study, researchers identified genetic factors associated with frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting a protective effect of a specific CYP1B1 gene variant, which may offer insights into the disease's pathogenesis and future risk mitigation strategies.

This study found that among women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, 100% showed dermoscopic elements suggestive of the condition, with perifollicular erythema often indicating disease activity.

This study demonstrates that combining gene expression data with a random forest algorithm provides highly accurate diagnosis of childhood growth hormone deficiency, showing potential utility in distinguishing it from non-GHD short stature.

This article introduces a new grading system called the FPHL Severity Index to better identify and monitor early stages of female pattern hair loss using clinical criteria.

This source describes a collection of geometric medicine formulations aimed at comprehensive hair restoration and permanent hair removal, with claimed simulation results indicating complete baldness reversal and effective hair removal, but results are sourced from theoretical and simulation-based findings without reported clinical trials.

This study found that the film-trigger applicator system enhanced drug delivery efficiency and skin penetration of dissolving microneedles compared to traditional patch systems in both lab and animal models.

This study found that female pattern hair loss is more common than previously thought among Indian women, with the most frequent pattern being diffuse hair loss over the vertex.

This study reports that the loss of the protein Memo in mice leads to a reduced lifespan and suggests that Memo is a key regulator of FGFR signaling and vitamin D production.

This case report presents a 6-year-old boy with both folliculotropic mycosis fungoides and primary follicular mucinosis, providing insights on differentiating the two conditions in pediatric patients.

In this report, a 44-year-old woman with female pattern alopecia experienced significant hair regrowth after 3.5 months of oral finasteride, with no side effects, after not responding to topical minoxidil.

This study found that papillary dermal fibroblast progenitors in newborn mouse skin can be isolated and cultured to generate male germline cell precursors, demonstrating their potential through differentiation into cells with meiotic capability.

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 study found a high prevalence of genital Lichen sclerosus and autoimmune comorbidities in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting a possible shared autoimmune process.

This study found a significant association between patients' sex of rearing and external genitalia in those with gonadal dysgenesis, while noting lower testosterone levels compared to controls.

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 study on feather pattern formation in chicken skin found that inhibiting gap junctional intercellular communication can lead to the emergence of new feather buds in specific spatial patterns, suggesting that GJIC may facilitate Turing-type periodic patterning by propagating inhibitory signals over long distances.

This report describes a case of Goltz syndrome in a 12-year-old Saudi girl, highlighting the variability in symptoms and the importance of documenting such rare syndromes.

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

Among patients with biopsy-proven FAPD in specialized hair clinics, this study found the condition is common in females around 52.5 years old, with treatment generally stabilizing or slightly improving hair loss, despite challenges in differentiating FAPD from androgenetic alopecia.
