This study reports a case of frontal fibrosing alopecia associated with hepatitis C treatment involving interferon and ribavirin.

This case report describes a 67-year-old woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia and her daughter with lichen planopilaris, noting identical HLA D types which suggest a phenotypical link between these conditions.

This study found that canine hair follicle stem cells are located in the isthmus/bulge region of the hair follicle, surrounded by telocytes.

HGF activator helps convert HGF to its active form, promoting hair growth.

hHb1, hHb3, and hHb6 mRNAs start expressing at the same time in hair follicles.

In this study, the Instant Follicular Hair Unit Transplant technique demonstrated superior hair growth compared to conventional FUE in patients with androgenetic alopecia, although it requires a steeper learning curve for surgeons.

This study reports that gastrointestinal problems, such as intractable diarrhea and enterocolitis, can dominate the clinical course of patients with Hoyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome and may occur before hematological and immunological symptoms.

In this study, researchers created a comprehensive transcriptome map of human hair follicle compartments, identifying compartment-specific genes and providing a resource for potential therapeutic interventions.

Hair follicle dermal stem cells help control hair growth timing by regulating signals at the hair germ–dermal papilla interface.

This study found that in a mouse model of Focal Dermal Hypoplasia, treatment with lithium carbonate improved skin disease symptoms compared to controls, though disease severity varied and posed interpretation challenges.

This study reports that compound heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in the HEPHL1 gene in a child were associated with abnormal hair and cognitive issues, linking altered ferroxidase activity to hair disorders.

This study suggests that Myelin Protein Zero-like 3 plays a crucial role in hair follicle cycling by regulating anagen and catagen phases, mediated through mitochondrial signaling mechanisms in both human and murine hair follicles.

This review discusses the clinical features of hypopigmented mycosis fungoides in primary cutaneous T cell lymphoma and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, a computer-aided imaging system accurately measured the width of balding areas in female pattern hair loss, correlating strongly with clinical staging severity.

In a study using a mouse model, HF-MSCs were reported to enhance ovarian function in cyclophosphamide-induced premature ovarian failure more effectively than HU-MSCs, potentially by preventing ferroptosis in granulosa cells via the KEAP1/NRF2/HO-1 pathway.

In this study, D-OCT imaging revealed distinct structural and vascular changes in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting the technique's potential for diagnosing and monitoring the condition's activity.

This study identified a distinct gene near the hairless locus on chromosome 8p that is responsible for hereditary Marie Unna type hypotrichosis in a German family.

This study found that combining high-frequency ultrasound with clinical examination significantly improved the diagnostic accuracy of invisible subcutaneous lesions from 47.3% to 80.8%, especially for conditions like epidermoid cysts and lipomas, although it was less effective for rarer lesions such as dermatofibromas.

The mutation causes hairless mice due to mislocalized and dysfunctional HR protein.

This study found that human embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells differentiated into specific bulge stem cells and successfully formed new hair follicles when transplanted with mouse dermal cells in immunodeficient mice.

This study found that knockout mice lacking intestinal hephaestin are smaller and anemic compared to wild-type, suggesting other mechanisms may compensate for iron absorption.

This study identified a distinct CD49fhigh mesenchymal stem cell subpopulation in the dermis that supports hair follicle development and maintenance via Notch signaling activation.

This research details a robust method for isolating hair follicle stem cells and epidermal keratinocytes from mouse hair follicles using fluorescence activated cell-sorting technology.

Hair follicle stem cells can become heart muscle cells.

This study reports a case of GGCX syndrome in a 55-year-old Japanese male, characterized by PXE-like symptoms and coagulation deficiency, with an unreported phenotype of possible spinocerebellar degeneration.

In this study, a modified Ferriman-Galwey score greater than 4 was found to be effective for diagnosing hirsutism in Asian women, highlighting key areas such as the upper lip, thighs, and lower abdomen.

This study found that stem cells from mouse hair follicles successfully reconstructed the ocular surface in most limbal stem cell deficiency mice, demonstrating potential for treating the condition in a mouse model.

This study found that CTCF is crucial for proper skin and hair follicle development in mice, affecting keratinocyte differentiation and gene expression in keratin loci.
