This study investigated a unique frontal fibrosing alopecia-like presentation of alopecia areata, finding that patients experienced an insidious, chronic course with limited scalp hair regrowth, and showed a lower response to systemic corticosteroids compared to patchy alopecia areata.

In this study, scalp biopsies from HJMD patients revealed histological similarities to chronic telogen effluvium and highlighted the role of CDH3 mutations disrupting normal hair cycles.

This study found that hair follicle stem cell-derived secretome mitigated cell death, apoptosis, and inflammation while upregulating neurotrophic factors in astrocytes exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation, an in vitro ischemic stroke model, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits in stroke recovery.

Laser treatment boosts hair growth by activating a key growth factor.

This article reviews idiopathic hirsutism, focusing on its definition, diagnosis, causes, and treatment options, without presenting new clinical findings.

This review highlights available treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting that 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, intralesional steroids, and hydroxychloroquine currently have the most evidence supporting their use, while other treatments show variable results and require further study.

This review outlines the potential of using human pluripotent stem cells for hair follicle bioengineering, detailing current HF morphogenesis and cycling knowledge, various cell sources, and strategies using iPSCs, while discussing the challenges and prospects for therapeutic use in addressing hair loss.

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 reported that an HS-associated NCSTN mutation in iPSC-derived skin organoids led to altered hair follicle stem cell differentiation and increased expression of proteins linked to HS inflammation.

This study reports that finasteride was associated with an improvement in hidradenitis suppurativa among children aged 6 to 11, with no observed adverse effects.

This study found that intravenous transplantation of human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells improved trabecular bone mass in osteoporotic mice by enhancing bone formation and reducing bone resorption.

In a laboratory setting, this study found that overexpression of the FGF5 short form in cultured keratinocytes increased hepatic growth factor gene expression, suggesting a potential role in hair growth.

This study found that human scalp hair follicles produce neurohormones and responded to GHRH stimulation by prolonging hair growth, suggesting a functional peripheral HPS neuroendocrine signaling axis in the skin.

This review discusses the role of heparan sulfate proteoglycans in regulating stem cell fate and highlights their potential as targets for addressing hair loss, without reporting new clinical results.

Early diagnosis of frontal fibrosing alopecia is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss.

This study investigated the ability of a human hair keratin dimer to absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutane sulfonate, finding high binding affinities that suggest potential for hair-derived materials in water filtration technologies.

This study found a high prevalence of beard and eyebrow alopecia in male patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, and suggests a potential link between hormonal imbalances and the condition.

This case report describes the treatment of hirsutism in a 15-year-old obese Mexican girl with flutamide, aiming to improve her social function.

This review discusses fibrosing frontal alopecia, including its causes, mechanisms, and treatments, and emphasizes the need for further research to improve understanding and treatments; it reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the pathogenesis of hidradenitis suppurativa, highlighting follicular occlusion and inflammation as key factors in disease development, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that individuals with frontal fibrosing alopecia have increased odds of thyroid disease, lupus erythematous, vitiligo, and heart disease, supporting the consideration of FFA as a systemic disorder.

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 abstract omits specific findings and does not provide new research results.

This study suggests that human and mouse hair follicle stem cells may support nerve repair and provide a practical source of stem cells for neurological therapies.

This study mapped a spontaneous mouse hair mutation, "hague," to keratin genes on chromosome 15 but found no gene mutations in hague mice.

This study from North-East India analyzed 21 cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting a high prevalence in post-menopausal women and distinct histological features such as perifollicular lymphocytic infiltrate and hydropic degeneration.

This study demonstrated a method for large-scale preparation of self-sorted hair follicle germs in vitro, which successfully generated hair follicles when transplanted into the skin of nude mice.

This study reports that familial frontal fibrosing alopecia was diagnosed earlier in premenopausal women compared to postmenopausal women, though long-term outcomes remain uncertain without a definitive treatment.

This study found that using an ultrasound hollow microneedle array enhanced transdermal delivery of finasteride, accelerating hair regrowth in mice with androgenetic alopecia compared to other delivery methods.

This review examines various methods for assessing hair growth in women, highlighting the usefulness of the mFG visual scoring method for diagnosing hirsutism despite its limitations.
