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 study suggests that hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cell transplantation may effectively treat acute pancreatitis by reducing inflammation and promoting pancreatic regeneration in a rat model.

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 demonstrated that incorporating human hair fiber into soft clayey soil significantly enhances subgrade strength and reduces cracking compared to unreinforced soil, as confirmed by unconfined compressive strength and CBR tests.

This study found that mouse hair follicle stem cells in a quiescent state exhibit greater chromatin dynamics and de-differentiation potential, suggesting higher cell fate plasticity compared to their proliferative or differentiated counterparts.

This study found that dermoscopy of the axilla in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia revealed significantly higher odds of brownish peripillary halos, suggesting a diagnostic clue for the condition in this region.

This case study reports the clinical features of triple H syndrome in a 25-year-old man, including ACTH deficiency, alopecia universalis, and anterograde amnesia, which were improved with hydrocortisone treatment.

This study found that increased MSI2 expression in hair follicle stem cells can delay hair growth by maintaining stem cell quiescence and repressing Hedgehog signaling.

This article notes slow progression and spontaneous stabilization in untreated cases of a specific scarring alopecia and reports no new results; the authors call for randomized trials to confirm the treatment's benefit.

This study found that fibromodulin significantly reduces scar formation and boosts scar strength in rodent and porcine models, suggesting potential for FMOD-based therapies in cutaneous wound repair.

This study involved 69 hair experts using a Delphi process to achieve consensus on treating frontal fibrosing alopecia, finding strong agreement on disease monitoring but less on physical and systemic therapies, indicating the need for more research.

This study found that zebrafish with a mutation in the GDP-fucose biosynthesis gene exhibited enhanced and faster regeneration of mechanosensory hair cells, implicating the importance of this gene and Notch signalling regulation in hair cell regeneration mechanisms.

This study reported that frontal fibrosing alopecia predominantly affects postmenopausal women and identified potential risk factors like frequent β-blocker use and sunscreen application, indicating the need for further research.

In this study, sulfated fucans promoted hair growth in mice by advancing hair follicles to anagen IV and delaying their regression to catagen, possibly through VEGF and HGF effects.

This study found that hidradenitis suppurativa significantly impacts patients' sexuality, with many experiencing fear of rejection, perceived unattractiveness, and negative effects on relationships and sexual activity.

This study reports on a unique clinical presentation of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides in a 60-year-old man, highlighting complexities in diagnosis due to dense histiocytic infiltration, which led to xanthoma formation before treatment, and obscured lymphomatous features.

This study found that the absence of Hif-p4h-2 in specific mouse skin cells disrupted hair follicle development, leading to hair loss due to irregular keratin formation and pathway signaling.

In a study using a rat model of hypertrophic scars, researchers found that gamma-irradiated human amniotic fluid improved wound healing, collagen remodelling, immune response, and scar characteristics more effectively than saline or non-irradiated amniotic fluid, indicating its potential for clinical applications in scar management.

A 64-year-old man had a rare skin cancer near his ear, unresponsive to antibiotics, with specific skin and hair follicle changes.

Hox genes control hair follicle stem cell regeneration in different body regions.

In this study, researchers introduced the Sanusi FUE Score Scale to better predict and grade the difficulty of follicular unit excision hair transplantation by accounting for diverse hair and skin types, with further validation needed.

In this study, a novel DCAF17 gene mutation was identified in a Chinese family, suggesting a potential role in pancreatic β cell dysfunction and diabetes development in Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome.

This study found that hair follicle stem cells, when transplanted in a rat model of ischaemic stroke, migrated to affected areas, expressed neuron-specific markers, and reduced infarct volume, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits.

This study introduced a new computational method for simulating vibrational frequencies, finding that the multi-molecular fragment model showed the best agreement with experimental data for Finasteride, Lamivudine, and Repaglinide, outperforming traditional models in accuracy.

This study suggests that specific mutations in the MFN2 gene, including the p.Arg707Trp allele, can result in tissue-selective mitochondrial dysfunction leading to excessive upper body fat growth and low leptin levels.

This study suggests that the amino acid composition of fibrous proteins in normal human hair is similar to that of stratum corneum proteins, particularly in cysteine and glycine content.

This study found that combining hair follicle-derived smooth muscle cells with a natural biomaterial created vascular constructs with mechanical and functional properties similar to native arteries, suggesting potential for arterial implantation.

In this study, Huoxue Bushen Mixture was associated with increased blood vessel formation and VEGF expression in mice hair follicles, suggesting it may enhance hair growth.

In this retrospective study, all-female patients with iron deficiency anemia treated with ferric carboxymaltose experienced rapid symptom resolution and increased ferritine and hemoglobin levels, with some reporting manageable side effects such as rash and headache.

This study found that the novel culture condition gHFEM, which includes Y-27632 and bFGF, optimally promotes the proliferation and pluripotency of goat hair follicle stem cells in vitro.
