This case report describes a 50-year-old man with folliculotropic mycosis fungoides stage IB, noting trichoscopic findings like dilated follicular openings, black dots, and dystrophic hairs, which are less commonly documented in this condition, suggesting trichoscopy could aid in early diagnosis.

This report describes two cases of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides with syringotropism, highlighting indolent progression despite the disease's typically aggressive nature, suggesting aggressive treatment might not be necessary.

This article reviews frontal fibrosing alopecia, exploring its characteristics, demographics, and associated conditions, and calls for controlled trials due to an increase in worldwide cases; it reports no new findings.

Targeting immune pathways like JAK/STAT may help treat frontal fibrosing alopecia.

Fetuin-A helps wounds heal without scars by promoting cell movement.

In this study, injecting Fetuin A into embryonic mouse wounds led to scar formation, suggesting the protein may play a role in scar development by promoting collagen production.

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 study presents a novel in vitro assay using human folliculoid microspheres to research hair growth, which may facilitate preclinical testing of hair growth-modulatory agents.

This study explored the carbohydrate composition of plasma cell membranes in human embryonic epidermis over various gestational ages and found specific patterns that may inform future diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for dermatoses.

This study in Asian females found that higher use of moisturizers and sunscreen among FFA patients may reflect appearance concerns rather than indicating a direct link to the disease mechanism.

This study found that key amino acids lost from hair due to weathering can be successfully reintroduced through cosmetic treatments, improving hair strength and aesthetics.

This article reviews the role of factor Xa inhibitors like Rivaroxaban and suggests they may eventually replace vitamin K antagonists, but their side effects require further clarification.

This study observed that the glucose linoleate derivative 6‐O‐GL supported hair follicle growth and survival in vitro, acting as a stable lipid precursor and energy provider.

Human growth factor 20 can boost mouse whisker growth.

In this study, researchers found that FGF9 plays a significant role in sheep wool growth by accelerating the proliferation and cell cycle of dermal papilla cells, potentially through regulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This review discusses the current understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia's pathogenesis, highlighting genetic susceptibility, immune response involvement, and possible links to steroid hormones, but reports no new clinical results.

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 review discusses frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting its frequent misdiagnosis and highlighting the need for larger studies to better understand its epidemiology, causes, and treatment options; it reports no new clinical findings.

This review reports that the monosaccharide composition of polysaccharides significantly impacts their bioactivity, highlighting various roles for glucans, galactans, mannans, fructans, and pectin in immune regulation, antioxidant effects, and other biological functions.

This study identified four circulating microRNAs as highly predictive of frontal fibrosing alopecia status, suggesting potential roles in diagnostics and disease understanding.

In this study, Fgf20 was found to trigger movement and morphogenesis in dermal fibroblasts, facilitating dermal condensate formation essential for hair follicle development.

Fibronectin is essential for hair follicle regeneration and may help rejuvenate aged skin.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy revealed considerable abnormalities in hair morphology in MPS I, II, IIIA, and IIIB patients, potentially related to heparan sulfate accumulation.

This article discusses the pseudo 'fringe sign' in frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting that it is not solely related to traction, and it reports no new clinical results.

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

This study revealed that deficiency in the enzyme FA2H in mice affected sebaceous gland function, altered sebum composition, and caused cycling alopecia, highlighting FA2H's role in hair follicle homeostasis.

This report details a rare case of favus in Japan, identifying Trichophyton schoenleinii in a 63-year-old woman through DNA sequencing, who was successfully treated with oral terbinafine and topical luliconazole.

This study suggests that human hair follicles may operate their own Cori cycle, synthesizing glycogen from lactate under conditions of lactic acidosis.

This study found that phenoxyethanol is the most common contact allergen in over-the-counter hair loss products, but its role in the development or exacerbation of frontal fibrosing alopecia remains unclear.
