This paper introduces Follicular Unit Extraction and reports the FOX Test can identify suitable candidates, with about 25% of patients being ideal and 35% being good candidates for the procedure.

This study found that GLI2 plays a key role in activating follistatin, an activin/BMP antagonist, in response to hedgehog signaling in human epidermal cells, with implications for hair follicle development and basal cell carcinoma.

This study found that FGF5 alternative spliceosomes inhibit dermal papilla cell proliferation and regulate hair follicle growth-related gene expression, impacting hair follicle development in rabbits.

This study found that overexpression of the FA2H gene in cashmere goats' hair follicle cells may enhance hair proliferation and regulate genes affecting cashmere fineness.

This review discusses the choice between follicular unit transplantation (FUT) and follicular unit excision (FUE) in hair restoration surgery, highlighting their respective advantages and how improved techniques have increased FUE's popularity despite equivalent aesthetic results with FUT.

The researchers reported that human foreskin fibroblasts isolated by enzyme digestion method proliferated faster and were purified more quickly than those isolated by the inverted tissue culture method; additionally, post-psoralen photoactivation therapy moderately repaired UVB-induced damage in these fibroblasts, suggesting potential clinical applications.

This study described the clinicopathological features of patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia who underwent skin biopsies.

This study found that recombinant human HGF/SF injections altered hair follicle growth cycles and mildly promoted hair elongation in mice, depending on their hair cycle stage.

This study found that using a standardized protocol with microspheres of approximately 1.5 micrometers enhances penetration into hair follicles, particularly when skin is treated with cyanoacrylate skin surface stripping.

In this study, researchers found that Fgf21 knockout mice exhibited delayed hair follicle cycling compared to wild-type mice, potentially due to altered miRNA interactions affecting Vezf1 and Map3k1 expression, providing insights into the molecular regulation of hair growth.

This study found that the bioconjugate nanoparticle HA-P5 significantly alleviated acne and reduced sebum production by inhibiting key signaling pathways without inducing unwanted protein expression that hinders acne treatment.

This case study documented a 36-year-old woman with postpartum-onset frontal fibrosing alopecia who showed significant improvement in hair regrowth after early combination therapy with dutasteride, tofacitinib, and intralesional triamcinolone acetonide, suggesting potential benefits of multimodal treatment in this typically irreversible condition.

This study presents a validated questionnaire, the FFA-QLI, which effectively assesses and differentiates the quality of life impact among patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, showing greater sensitivity in identifying severe cases than the DLQI.

This study observed that transgenic mice with overexpression of HE4 developed keratitis and severe corneal opacity, suggesting that HE4 may significantly influence keratopathy and inflammatory responses in the eye.

This study observed that direct hair transplantation, as a modification of follicular unit extraction, was effective in improving baldness in the majority of treated male patients.

This treatise provides guidelines and suggestions for the safe practice of follicular unit transplantation but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses frontal fibrosing alopecia in males and reports no new clinical results, indicating a broader demographic affected by this inflammatory disorder beyond postmenopausal women.

This study found that overexpressing FGF22 in dermal papilla cells enhanced hair follicle stem cell proliferation and viability, while its knockout reduced these attributes, indicating its role in hair follicle regeneration.

This study provides the most comprehensive review to date of published cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia, emphasizing a notable association with thyroid disease.

This study found that adding topical finasteride 0.5% to diode laser therapy significantly reduced unwanted facial hair in women with idiopathic hirsutism compared to laser treatment with a placebo.

In this study, HPH-15, a newly synthesized compound, demonstrated potential in reducing skin fibrosis in a mouse model by targeting underlying pathogenic mechanisms and exhibited a good safety profile, warranting further clinical trials for fibrotic skin disorders like systemic sclerosis.

This review discusses follicular unit transplantation for hair restoration, focusing on crucial aspects such as donor assessment and surgical technique, but reports no clinical results; the authors stress the importance of careful planning and skilled execution.

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

A male patient developed frontal fibrosing alopecia after antiandrogen therapy for prostate cancer.

This study found that mutations in exon 3 of the hr gene are strongly associated with congenital hypotrichosis in Valle del Belice sheep, suggesting a potential genetic link to the disorder.

This study suggests that miR-182 may play an essential role in hallux valgus development by regulating FGF9 expression, indicating a potential therapeutic target for its treatment.

This report describes a child and his father with hereditary hypotrichosis simplex, an uncommon isolated form of hair loss, with no other ectodermal or systemic abnormalities noted.

This study found that human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells demonstrated enhanced wound healing capabilities compared to umbilical cord-derived stem cells in laboratory and animal models.

This narrative review suggests a strong association between abrupt hormonal imbalances and frontal fibrosing alopecia in women, especially related to reduced fertile years and certain hormonal therapies.
