The GH-IGF-I axis is likely involved in the hormonal imbalances seen in non-obese women with functional hyperandrogenism.

This study found that photoacoustic imaging can effectively measure follicle density and angles, even when follicles are not visible to the eye, providing a promising alternative to traditional photographic examination.

Certain drugs and supplements may contribute to hair loss in the frontal hairline in older women.

In this report, researchers described a 36-year-old woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia resistant to standard treatments, who showed significant improvement after six months on a combination of intralesional betamethasone and oral hydroxychloroquine, suggesting potential benefits of this therapy approach in managing the condition.

This study found a high concordance between subject-reported and clinician-reported Fitzpatrick Skin Phototypes, but 14% of subjects misjudged their skin type, often overestimating it.

This study found that water-filtered infrared A radiation can induce the release of a model drug from gold nanoparticle-doped particles in hair follicles in an ex vivo porcine skin model, suggesting feasibility for follicular drug delivery systems.

This study successfully used noninvasive bioluminescence imaging to monitor hair generation in vivo after transplanting hair follicle stem cells in mice.

This study found that Mueller Matrix microscopy can accurately identify, detect, and evaluate hair follicles in mouse skin tissue, suggesting its potential for skin structure research and dermatological applications.

This case report describes a 46-year-old man who developed folliculotropic mycosis fungoides, a form of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder, following renal transplantation.

In this case report, a 3-year-old male with IFAP syndrome showed moderate improvement in skin symptoms and corneal erosions but no change in alopecia or photophobia after 6 months of acitretin therapy.

The researchers in this study identified molecular mechanisms involved in frontal fibrosis alopecia, highlighting immune response and fatty acid metabolism, and developed a four-gene diagnostic model showing high accuracy in distinguishing affected individuals from controls.

This study reports that the novel small molecule IM176OUT05, by modifying stem cell metabolism, promoted hair regrowth and increased hair follicle numbers in mice.

This study found that 11% of cutaneous focal mucinosis lesions demonstrated follicular induction, which can mimic basal cell carcinoma histologically and complicate diagnosis.

This case study describes a patient with rapidly progressing follicular mycosis fungoides, highlighting its unusual histology and challenges in diagnosing it against cutaneous B-cell lymphoma.

This source discusses that while oral JAK inhibitors are used for treating lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia, they carry significant risk of adverse events; two cases showed promising results using tofacitinib cream as a safer topical alternative.

This study describes a method to extract and characterize keratin particles from human hair, finding they can encapsulate the anticancer drug Paclitaxel with significant efficiency, releasing it in a pH-dependent manner potentially beneficial for targeted cancer treatment.

This study concluded that a 3% IGF-1 liposomal gel improved hair thickness and growth in hamsters without inducing significant hepatotoxicity or myelotoxicity, suggesting its potential as a safe hair-loss treatment.

This study found that both traditional and "in-motion" IPL techniques achieved similar hair removal results, but the "in-motion" method may offer reduced pain during the procedure.

This study reviewed 18 postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting frontotemporal hairline recession and eyebrow loss, often treated with steroids, triamcinolone, and other medications.

In this study, the authors observed that cell-mediated immune mechanisms may be involved in the pathogenesis of benign follicular mucinosis, based on the cellular and immunological characteristics of two patient cases.

This study found that NFI-C plays a crucial role in the transition from the telogen to anagen phase of the hair follicle cycle, affecting hair growth initiation in mice.

This study reports a unique case of trichotillomania incognita in an adult female that mimicked female pattern hair loss, highlighting the importance of trichoscopy and histology for accurate diagnosis.

This study observed that repeated hair follicle sampling is feasible and reliable for measuring FMR1 mRNA and FMRP in individuals with Fragile X syndrome, supporting its use in longitudinal studies.

This study found that higher levels of the protein Flii were associated with enhanced hair follicle regeneration and longer hair fibers in a mouse model.

This study found that repeatedly collecting hair follicles from individuals with fragile X syndrome is feasible for measuring FMR1 and FMRP levels in both home and office settings.

This study found that IMT-P8, a novel cell-penetrating peptide, effectively facilitated the dermal delivery of proteins and peptides in mouse skin and cell lines, suggesting potential for topical applications in cosmetics and skin diseases.

This study suggests that women with alopecia have decreased microcirculation oscillations, which may imply neuroinflammation as a factor in the disease's pathogenesis.

In this case series, researchers reported on the clinical characteristics and treatment approaches for Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia in four cases, emphasizing the importance of early identification and intervention to manage this scarring hair loss disorder that primarily affects the frontal hairline and eyebrows.

This study found that targeting both hormonal and immune pathways improved treatment outcomes in androgenetic alopecia patients with an under-recognized inflammatory component called PIILIF, which may contribute to treatment resistance.
