This study found that placental growth factor (PlGF) enhanced hair shaft elongation and accelerated hair follicle growth, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target for alopecia.

This study suggests that the GPX-PDE1 and GPX-PDE2 genes in white lupin enhance root hair development and contribute to Pi limitation acclimation by facilitating glycerophosphodiester degradation.

This study found a severe MBTPS2 gene mutation in a Japanese IFAP syndrome patient, suggesting other factors may influence the syndrome's clinical features compared to previously studied patients.

PP405 may help hair growth by activating hair follicle stem cells.

The researchers reported that the facial Psoriasis Log-based Area and Severity Index (fPLASI) more reliably and sensitively captured clinical improvement in facial psoriasis than the existing facial Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (fPASI).

This study found that female pattern hair loss may be influenced by genetic factors and hormonal changes, particularly in young adults, and identified specific dermoscopic features associated with the condition.

This case report describes a rare occurrence of ectodermal dysplasia features in a 14-year-old with MBTPS1 gene variants, expanding the known spectrum of related disorders.

In this case study from King Fahad University Hospital, an 11-month-old Saudi boy with a history of short, non-growing hair was diagnosed with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, attributed to a homozygous mutation in the LIPH gene.

This dissertation reveals that FERONIA, a cell wall-binding receptor kinase, plays a crucial role in regulating plant functions such as sugar signaling, pollen tube reception, and RAC/ROP-mediated auxin signaling.

This study strongly suggests that a distinct form of hereditary localized alopecia in a Chinese family is linked to a novel locus on chromosome 2p25.1–2p23.2.

Using a transgenic pig model, this study demonstrated that LGR5 is a marker of hair follicle stem cells across different species, with important similarities and differences in gene expression and developmental processes.

This study found that TRF1 plays a crucial role in maintaining pluripotency and stem cell compartments, but it is not a suitable in vivo telomere length marker.

This study highlights that mutations in the MBTPS2 gene can lead to dermatological disorders like IFAP syndrome and severe bone diseases such as X-Linked Osteogenesis Imperfecta, emphasizing the significance of understanding these genetic variants for disease mechanisms and associations.

Certain peptides can prevent hair loss in young rats caused by a cancer drug.

This study found that DPP4 is significantly involved in matrix deposition and fibrosis in human skin fibroblasts, although the exact functions of DPP4 remain unclear.

This study found that the FER/MLO signaling module plays a crucial role in calcium oscillations and ROS production in root hair tip growth, with the MLO15 protein regulating these processes and restoring disrupted growth and signaling in fer mutant root hairs.

In this research, RNA expression analysis of scalp biopsies from lichen planopilaris patients revealed changes in specific genes after treatments with hydroxychloroquine, narrow band UVB, or low level laser light therapy, suggesting potential biomarkers and implicating M2 macrophages in the disease's immunopathogenesis.

This study found that mice lacking sPLA2-IIE had distinct skin abnormalities, particularly affecting hair follicles, highlighting the differing roles of sPLA2 isoforms in mouse skin.

This study observed that specific trichoscopic features like white peripilar signs, scalp pigmentation, and focal atrichia are associated with advanced female pattern hair loss in Fitzpatrick skin type III patients.

This study developed a potent Wnt surrogate with high specificity for the Fzd7 receptor in mice, promoting full hair follicle regeneration and robust hair growth, suggesting potential applications in tissue development and targeted regeneration.

This study found that fibroblast growth factors exhibit significant expression differences in the skin of rodents and primates, which may be linked to their evolutionary and environmental adaptations.

This article discusses the characteristics of lichen planus pigmentosus and frontal fibrosing alopecia but reports no new clinical findings; the authors review existing knowledge.

This study reports an association between the ESR2 gene variant rs10137185 and female-pattern hair loss in German patients.

A specific mutation in PA-PLA1α causes abnormal hair growth.

This review discusses recent advances in the diagnosis and management of female pattern hair loss but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a family with autosomal dominant transmission of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans, with observed treatment refractoriness in multiple topical and systemic therapies.

This study found that FZD2 is crucial for hair follicle formation and postnatal growth in mice and has a novel role in regulating early epidermal development, including stratification and cornification.

In this study, FMN was found to inhibit androgen receptor function and androgen-regulated gene expression in prostate cancer cells, suggesting potential as an antiandrogen therapy.

This study found that frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planopilaris have similar histopathological features, but FFA exhibits more prominent apoptosis and less inflammation with spared interfollicular epidermis.
