In this study, a transgenic mouse model suggested that suppressing the expression of the HGPS mutation may reverse disease symptoms, including skin abnormalities, supporting the potential for treatment development.

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.

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

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 review outlines the transition from simple hair follicle organoids to immune-competent microphysiological systems, addressing limitations in replicating native hair follicle immune features and discussing their applications in disease modeling and regenerative medicine.

Human hair follicles have their own thyroid hormone system.

This study highlights that human hair follicle dermal papilla cells and glypicans play crucial roles in regulating hair follicle stem cell differentiation.

This study reported that paracrine factors, such as IGF-I and SCF, were reduced in balding hair follicles compared to non-balding ones, while inhibitory factors like TGFß-1 were increased, providing insights into the androgen action in hair follicles.

This study found that hair follicle stem cell transplantation in a rat model of ischaemic stroke reduced infarct volume and promoted neurological recovery, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits for stroke treatment.

This review discusses the integration of ultrasound in dermatology for improved lesion visualization and diagnosis, highlighting recent technological advancements like handheld devices and high-frequency probes, and reports no clinical results.

This study observed that the SREBF1 mutation c.1669C>T (p.Arg557Cys) may act as a recurrent hotspot mutation associated with both hereditary mucoepithelial dysplasia and autosomal-dominant ichthyosis follicularis with atrichia and photophobia syndrome, suggesting they may be on the same clinical spectrum.

This study found that in mice, LSD1 interacting with HSP90 accelerates skin wound healing by enhancing HFSC glycolytic metabolism, proliferation, and differentiation via the c-MYC/LDHA axis.

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

This study found that controlled release of hIGF-1 from TF/hIGF-1 effectively enhanced re-epithelialization and granulation tissue formation in diabetic wounds in animal models compared to controls, suggesting a promising approach for diabetic wound treatment.

This study identified a novel recessive mutation in mice causing lethal congenital lamellar ichthyosis, with skin and hair follicle alterations similar to human congenital ichthyoses, linked to a specific genetic defect affecting Fatp4.

In this case report, two young women with female pattern hair loss experienced significant hair regrowth without adverse effects after six months of treatment with bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells and their extracellular vesicles, suggesting potential for this approach when conventional treatments fail.

This study found that injury affects the behavior of hair follicle dermal stem cells, steering them towards recruitment into the dermal papilla, a shift influenced by the hair cycle stage.

This study found that Hairless protein down-regulates Msx2 expression, affecting hair follicle formation in Hairpoor mice by altering the MSX2 regulatory pathway.

This case report describes a family with autosomal dominant transmission of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans, with observed treatment refractoriness in multiple topical and systemic therapies.

This meta-analysis found a significant positive association between frontal fibrosing alopecia and both sunscreen and moisturizer use, with the moisturizer association significant only in males.

This study demonstrates that FMOD deficiency in mice alters TGF-β ligand and receptor expression during wound healing stages, leading to delayed wound closure and increased scar size.

This review highlights the increasing clinical applications of high-frequency ultrasonography in dermatology, particularly for assessing the depth of skin tumors and monitoring inflammatory skin diseases, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Flammulina velutipes polysaccharides-derived scaffolds greatly enhanced wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in a rat model, particularly with the FPS/NaOH variant showing the best results.

This study suggests that the C-terminal of AHF is crucial for its binding to keratin bundles and modulating the keratin meshwork in hair follicles.

Patients with Focal Dermal Hypoplasia often experience skin, nail, hair, and bone issues, and may benefit from calcium and vitamin D supplements.

In this study, researchers found that ligand homodimerization controls the receptor binding specificity of the FGF9 subfamily, preventing off-target activation of FGFR "b" isoforms.

This study found that conditional deletion of Mof in mice resulted in severe defects in skin development, including compromised epidermal differentiation and hair growth, leading to perinatal lethality.

This study found that the skin microbiome in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa differs significantly from healthy controls, suggesting a potential link between microbial imbalance and the disease.

In this study, researchers found that the human hair follicle microbiota vary by anatomical compartment and donor age, with specific microbes like S. epidermidis potentially influencing hair follicle functions, which suggests new avenues for therapeutic targeting.

In this study, to address long wait times for alopecia specialists, researchers implemented shared medical appointments for women with female pattern hair loss, modeled on formats previously used for conditions like acne and vitiligo.
