This research reported that the FDA approved Litfulo® (ritlecitinib) as the first oral treatment for severe alopecia areata in adolescents over 12 years old, with 23% of treated patients showing significant hair regrowth in clinical trials compared to 1.6% with placebo.

This letter reports a homozygous missense mutation in the LIPH gene causing autosomal recessive hypotrichosis simplex in a Chinese patient.

This study found that exosome-like nanoparticles derived from leeks promoted hair follicle stem cell proliferation and migration, enhanced antioxidant capacities, reduced inflammation, and inhibited hair maturation in rats by altering differentiation pathways, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits for managing hirsutism.

This study found that the Arabidopsis thaliana protein Formin 2 localizes to plasmodesmata and is crucial for regulating their permeability by anchoring actin filaments, which affects virus susceptibility.

This review discusses combining follicular unit excision (FUE) and linear strip excision (LSE) donor harvesting methods to optimize graft yield while minimizing donor depletion, but provides no new clinical results.

This abstract introduces the concept of follicular units (FUs) in the human scalp but presents no new research findings.

LSD1 is crucial for regenerating hair cells in zebrafish.

Linalool in personal care products may worsen frontal fibrosing alopecia by damaging hair follicle stem cells and triggering harmful immune responses.

This chapter reviews trichoscopic-pathologic correlations in Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia and reports no new clinical results; the authors discuss genetics, clinical patterns, and unusual variants associated with this condition.

In this case report, a patient with frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planus responded well to treatment with alitretinoin, suggesting a potential therapeutic role for alitretinoin in similar cases.

In this study, researchers observed that low levels of fucose-binding lectin staining characterize limbal epithelial progenitor cells, which maintain a high proliferative capacity and may be enhanced by inhibiting fucosylation, offering insights for regenerative therapy of the limbal stem cell niche.

This study found that novel RNA aptamers specifically inhibited FGF5-induced cell proliferation, suggesting their potential as candidates for treating FGF5-related diseases or hair disorders.

In this study, researchers identified a temperature-sensitive mutation in the FERONIA gene of plants that prevents root hair formation at elevated temperatures, highlighting its role in maintaining root hair growth and response to plant hormones.

Frontal fibrosing alopecia can occur with lichen planus pigmentosus, needing careful diagnosis and treatment.

This study suggests that the Leptin receptor may serve as a novel cell surface marker for dermal papilla cells, potentially aiding future isolation and research efforts in hair follicle regeneration studies.

This study found that the K14 promoter exhibited higher activity in skin cell lines compared to other cell lines, while both K14 and K5 promoters were active in all tested cell lines.

This study developed a biodegradable nanofibrous biofilm that attracts skin-related cells and accelerates blood vessel formation, potentially improving skin wound healing.

This study developed a novel monoclonal antibody, TYHF-1, which specifically reacts with hair keratins but not with epidermal keratins or various other tissue cells.

This study found that human hair follicle dermal papilla cells and keratinocytes self-assembled differently in 3D spheroid co-cultures, providing insights into cell distribution and organogenesis during skin regeneration.

This case report describes a 67-year-old woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia and her daughter with lichen planopilaris, noting identical HLA D types which suggest a phenotypical link between these conditions.

This study found that the transcription factor Lhx2 regulates Sonic Hedgehog signaling in mouse retinal progenitor cells, mainly by controlling the expression of co-receptors essential for effective pathway activation during early retinal neurogenesis.

This case report suggests that identifying hyperpigmentation on the upper eyelid with specific dermoscopy patterns could help diagnose facial lichen planus pigmentosus without needing a facial biopsy.

Woman has discoid lupus, frontal fibrosing, and androgenetic alopecia.

This study found a high prevalence of genital Lichen sclerosus and autoimmune comorbidities in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting a possible shared autoimmune process.

This study introduced a novel in vitro murine assay using transgenic mice to identify immunomodulatory compounds, which identified 160 potential hits from 4,398 compounds screened.

This study introduced a single-stage network using large kernel attention that effectively restores high-resolution images by capturing both global and local details, reducing parameters and improving processing speed.

This study establishes a catalog of human type I hair keratins and identifies their specific roles and expression patterns during hair differentiation and growth in scalp follicles.

This review discusses the critical role of BMP signaling in the development and regulation of skin and hair follicles and notes that further research could aid therapeutic advances; it presents no new clinical results.

This study found that differentiated cells of the corneal epithelium can be converted to hair and interfollicular epidermis through a multistep process involving dermal developmental signals.

In this study, researchers found that SIRT7 activates quiescent hair follicle stem cells to promote hair growth in mice by triggering the telogen-to-anagen cycle transition, with potential implications for age-related hair loss.
