This study found that pretreating concentrated growth factor with a 640 nm laser increased CD34+ stem cell activation and improved hair growth outcomes in androgenetic alopecia patients compared to non-pretreated CGF.

In this study, the researchers found that the absence of the NFI-C transcription factor delayed the hair growth cycle in mice by affecting key gene expressions and signaling pathways.

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 study identified the FGF5:c.578C>T variant as linked to long hair in Akitas in Japan and suggests that genetic testing could help improve their breeding practices and welfare.

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

This study identified a new heterozygous mutation in the connexin 26 gene (c.263C>T; p.Ala88Val) in a premature neonate with KID syndrome, who later died from complications.

This case report presents three sisters with familial frontal fibrosing alopecia, making it the 25th documented familial case, with treatment results observed in one sister.

In this study, the researchers describe a case of feline demodicosis that presented with dermatological lesions but lacked the typical signs of pruritus or overgrooming, and they report successful off-label treatment using a single spot-on application of fluralaner.

In this study, baricitinib treatment improved the differentiation of skin-derived precursors into adipocytes for diseases like Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome, suggesting potential benefits when combined with lonafarnib.

In this study, a topical formulation with compounds from the monoterpenoid family significantly improved hair growth indicators like anagen:telogen ratio, hair fall, and visual hair density in men and women with pattern hair loss.

In this study, researchers observed that during zebrafish fin regeneration, osteoblast Erk activity, influenced by Fgf receptor signaling, forms gradients scaling with amputation length, which predicts regenerative tissue growth and skeletal structure size.

FGF18 controls hair growth rest phase.

This report presents the first Australian case of familial frontal fibrosing alopecia involving a mother and daughter and seeks to differentiate clinical features between familial and sporadic cases.

In this study, the addition of a topical gel containing growth-factor mimicking oligopeptides and other ingredients showed improved efficacy in subjects with androgenic alopecia using minoxidil or finasteride compared to drug treatment alone.

In this study, the researchers identified a temperature-sensitive mutant in Arabidopsis thaliana, showing disrupted root hair formation and altered responses to plant hormone treatments at elevated temperatures.

This case report describes a 43-year-old woman diagnosed with both Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease and systemic lupus erythematosus, who showed clinical improvement after treatment with glucocorticoids and hydroxychloroquine, highlighting the rare coexistence of these conditions and the ongoing uncertainty about the precise cause of Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease.

This study found that patient-derived HGF significantly accelerates wound healing in diabetic mice, particularly improving skin structure and flexibility, and rHGF plays a key role in boosting hair growth.

This study found that FGF18 is crucial for regulating hair follicle rest and growth phases, as its absence in mice leads to a shorter resting phase and rapid hair cycling.

This study suggests that geranyl acetate may offer protective, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective effects against PPD-induced toxicity in keratinocyte cells, indicating its potential as a plant-derived treatment.

This study tested a folate-conjugate drug delivery system and found its cytotoxicity depends on whether the treated cells overexpress folate receptors, suggesting potential for targeted chemotherapy.

This article discusses current methods in facial feminization surgery for transsexual women and reports no new clinical results, focusing instead on various surgical techniques used to feminize facial features.

This study demonstrates that encapsulating cell-free fat extract in a gelatin methacrylate hydrogel enhances flap repair by sustaining angiogenesis, reducing oxidative stress, and offering favorable biocompatibility in a murine skin flap model, thereby advancing potential clinical flap necrosis treatments.

In a murine model of androgenetic alopecia, this study found that the newly designed IGF-1 biomimetic peptide Ac-GFFY-IGF led to faster and superior hair regrowth compared to minoxidil, suggesting potential for improved human therapies.

This study found that downregulation of EGF and KGF signaling is necessary for hair follicle initiation in placodes, revealing a new role for KGF in hair follicle formation in mice.

This review discusses the lack of long-term clinical studies on metformin's cardiovascular benefits in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, highlighting lifestyle changes as a crucial management strategy for reducing associated risks.

This case report details a rare instance of granulomatosis disciformis chronica et progressiva affecting both skin and lymph node tissue in a 31-year-old man.

This review discusses changes and advancements in facial feminization surgery, detailing various aspects of the field but reporting no new clinical results; the authors highlight ongoing innovations and challenges.
