This study identified vertex accentuation as the second most common pattern of female pattern hair loss in Asian women.

This study reports that analyzing the clinical manifestations of different genetic variants in EBS families helps predict disease progression and severity, guide complication risk assessment, and plan necessary medical care.

This study observed that treating hair follicles with BM15766 and 7DHC led to structural damage, disrupted cellular organization, reduced expression of key genes and proteins, and increased apoptosis, in contrast to controls, indicating detrimental effects on hair follicle integrity.

This study evaluated the 308-nm excimer laser as an adjuvant treatment for frontal fibrosing alopecia and found it may stabilize hairline recession and improve erythema and perifollicular hyperkeratosis, with transient erythema as the only reported adverse effect.

Caspase-7 has functions in skin and hair that are not related to cell death.

This study identified a novel keratin-associated protein, KAP24.1, which is specifically expressed in the human scalp and located in the hair cuticle.

This thesis found that desmoplakin mutations in cardiocutaneous syndrome are linked to dose-dependent disease severity and identified mechanisms by which KLHL24 mutations cause cardiomyopathy, with rescue experiments successfully preventing this phenotype in patient-derived heart tissues.

This study found that the small signaling peptide RALF22 plays a key role in root hair growth response to volatile compounds emitted by Penicillium aurantiogriseum through ethylene, auxin, and photosynthesis signaling in Arabidopsis.

This study demonstrated that the IVL-DrugFluidic® platform is effective for mass-producing finasteride-loaded polymeric microspheres for long-acting injectables, maintaining stable drug release without an initial burst for a month.

This study found that lncRNA RP11-818024.3 transfection promoted hair growth in AGA mice and increased cellular proliferation in vitro, potentially involving the FGF2 and PI3K-Akt pathways.

This research suggests that hair follicle-derived cytokines IL-7 and IL-15 are crucial for maintaining resident memory T cells in the skin, which may be relevant for diseases like cutaneous T cell lymphoma.

This study found that cathepsin L deficiency in mice led to significant abnormalities in hair follicle development and cycling, including disrupted hair shaft outgrowth and premature hair growth phase entry.

LSD1 is crucial for regenerating hair cells in zebrafish.

This study reported that K14 expression patterns and keratin filament organization in human skin's hair follicles differ from those in the epidermis, indicating distinct differentiation programs.

This study found that the FER/MLO signaling module plays a crucial role in calcium oscillations and ROS production in root hair tip growth, with the MLO15 protein regulating these processes and restoring disrupted growth and signaling in fer mutant root hairs.

This report presents a rare case of lichen spinulosus in a 52-year-old woman, featuring hyperkeratotic follicular papules and a dense lymphohistiocytic infiltrate in affected skin areas.

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.

This case report described a 39-year-old male with 47XXY/46XX mosaic Klinefelter syndrome who presented with common features of the condition and male pattern baldness seen in his family.

This study identified a new pathogenic variant, c.1081G>T; p.(Glu361*), in the KRT31 gene as a cause of autosomal-dominant monilethrix, highlighting the role of hair keratin proteins in hair and nail tissue disorders.

This study suggests that interfollicular epidermal keratinocytes with stem-like features may serve as an alternative to follicular keratinocytes for hair regeneration by supporting hair follicle morphogenesis in vivo.

Researchers found an RNA transcript that might help control a growth factor linked to tumor development.

In this study, researchers found that WNT activation influenced FGF expression in human scalp-derived fibroblasts, with mouse model results showing FGF9 increased hair follicle number and diameter, while FGF7 reduced diameter.

This study found that FGF5-/- rabbits exhibited a significant long hair phenotype by prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting FGF5 acts as a negative regulator of hair growth.

This article reports no new clinical results and reviews a case of scarring alopecia in conjunction with Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease.

This study found that the L457(3.43)R mutation in the human luteinizing hormone receptor increases phosphodiesterase activity, reducing hormonal response despite elevated basal cAMP levels.

This in-vitro study reported that a luliconazole-based formulation improved hair cuticle integrity and was more effective than ketoconazole in repairing damaged hair after 5 and 10 washes, with sensory analysis supporting these results. Further human studies are needed to confirm its clinical effects.

This study identified mefloquine as a potent inducer of lethal ER stress that effectively eliminated vemurafenib-resistant and sensitive melanoma cells, suggesting its potential for repurposing as a melanoma treatment.

This case report describes a patient with a severe pruritic rash and hair loss in both axillary regions, with no fluorescence under a Wood's lamp and hair follicle-centred papules observed through dermoscopy.

This study found that elevated luteinizing hormone levels were significantly associated with female pattern hair loss, and implicated LH/LHR signaling in the aging and damage of hair follicles.

This study successfully cloned and characterized the LEF-1 gene from Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats, potentially aiding efforts to enhance cashmere production through genetic modification.
