Dermoscopy helps diagnose frontal fibrosing alopecia by identifying specific scalp features.

This study found that fibroblast growth factor 20 (Fgf20) orchestrates the movement and behavior of dermal fibroblasts, directing their formation into dermal condensates during hair follicle development in mice.

In this study, researchers identified a temperature-sensitive mutation in the FERONIA gene of plants that prevents root hair formation at elevated temperatures, highlighting its role in maintaining root hair growth and response to plant hormones.

This review highlights available treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting that 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, intralesional steroids, and hydroxychloroquine currently have the most evidence supporting their use, while other treatments show variable results and require further study.

This study found that Sanguisorba Officinalis Root Extract showed potential in reducing hair loss by inhibiting FGF-5 activity, extending hair growth phases in mice and reducing hair loss in human trials.

This study examined epidemiological data on patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia in Greece and found demographic patterns consistent with international studies.

FGF18 controls hair growth rest phase.

This study adds evidence suggesting a genetic component to frontal fibrosing alopecia, with daughters experiencing an earlier onset than their mothers, although the clinical pattern remains similar to non-familial cases.

In this study, researchers developed a microfluidics-based method to generate hair follicle germs on a large scale for potential hair regeneration therapies, demonstrating efficient hair follicle regeneration following transplantation into mice.

This review discusses the structural and functional advances in understanding sulfotransferases and sulfatases, highlighting new insights into enzyme mechanisms and inactivation by clinically relevant aryl sulfamates, but provides no new experimental results.

This case report describes a 46-year-old man diagnosed with frontal fibrosing alopecia, a condition primarily affecting postmenopausal women, highlighting its rare occurrence in men.

This review discusses the role of fibroblast growth factors and their receptors in maintaining and repairing epithelial tissues, highlighting their importance in epithelial homeostasis and response to injuries without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that fucoidan extracts from Sargassum glaucescens, particularly oligo-fucoidans, promoted hair growth and increased related gene expression in human dermal papilla cells and mice models.

This study constructed a hair follicle-specific expression vector for IGFBP-5 in Inner Mongolia Cashmere goat cells, allowing for future functional genetic analyses and potential use in nuclear transfer.

This review discusses female androgenetic alopecia, highlighting its diagnostic challenges and management strategies, but it reports no new results.

FGF18 helps keep hair in its resting phase, affecting hair growth cycles.

This study found that finasteride gel 0.25% significantly decreased hair growth in women with idiopathic hirsutism over six months without any reported side effects.

This study describes a system called FOLLYSIS©, which uses mathematics and image analysis to optimize Follicular Unit Extraction hair transplants, showing high accuracy in measuring donor area density and reducing donor site injury.

Granuloma faciale can occur on the scalp, especially in people with advanced hair loss, and may improve with treatment.

In this study, UVFD and sUVRD techniques revealed distinctive characteristics of GD lesions, suggesting that GD might be more common in younger individuals and females than previously thought, possibly due to underdiagnosis. Incorporating dermatoscopy in exams may help improve GD detection and management.

This study identified a 505-bp indel variant in the FGF5 gene associated with cashmere growth in goats, which may serve as a molecular marker in cashmere goat breeding programs.

This case report describes a child with Gomez–Lopez–Hernandez syndrome, highlighting developmental challenges and medical interventions, yet noting academic success and participation in mainstream activities.

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 chronic exposure to fadrozole or finasteride during frog development induced intersex individuals, which displayed different gene expression profiles depending on the chemical used.

This study found that the FSHR Ser680Asn (rs6166) gene polymorphism is associated with an increased risk of PCOS in the examined population and could serve as a molecular biomarker for identifying risk.

In this study, researchers observed that low levels of fucose-binding lectin staining characterize limbal epithelial progenitor cells, which maintain a high proliferative capacity and may be enhanced by inhibiting fucosylation, offering insights for regenerative therapy of the limbal stem cell niche.

This study introduces ficlatuzumab, an anti-HGF monoclonal antibody, in combination with gefitinib in a phase 2 trial to address EGFR TKI resistance in Asian NSCLC patients.

This study found that the SAFE System may improve follicular unit extraction by reducing follicle transection rates and broadening patient eligibility, with only minor adverse reactions reported.

In this study, researchers introduced the Sanusi FUE Score Scale to better predict and grade the difficulty of follicular unit excision hair transplantation by accounting for diverse hair and skin types, with further validation needed.

This study focused on developing agarose/fucoidan hydrogels for the encapsulation of pancreatic cells, reporting that these materials supported cell viability and self-organization into pseudo-islets over 7 days, highlighting potential for diabetes treatment applications.
