FGF18 may influence hair loss in dogs.

This study reported no significant improvement in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia treated with various therapeutic agents, highlighting the need for more evidence-based treatments, especially in those with active disease.

This report describes benefits of advanced hair transplant techniques, micro-FUE and U-FUE, which may result in natural, undetectable hair restoration and discrete post-procedure appearance.

The study found that over-expressing ornithine decarboxylase in the outer root sheath of the hair follicle in mice increases UVB-induced tumor growth and invasive squamous cell carcinoma compared to inter-follicular epidermal keratinocytes.

This study observed that combining high-potency steroids with pimecrolimus might effectively stabilize hairline recession in frontal fibrosing alopecia patients.

This study demonstrated that novel cryomicroneedles loaded with hair follicle organoids (cryoMN@HFOs) can effectively deliver and develop into functional hair follicles after intradermal transplantation in animal experiments, suggesting promising potential for human hair follicle reconstruction.

This article contains news and announcements related to Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery but provides no new research findings.

Non-classical 21 hydroxylase deficiency is an underdiagnosed cause of female hair loss and polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This case report details a postmenopausal woman with increased libido, hirsutism, and spontaneous orgasms, noting elevated testosterone levels and enlarged ovaries.

This article proposes renaming frontal fibrosing alopecia to frontal fibrosing alopecia syndrome to better reflect its varied presentations and enhance understanding and treatment approaches.

This study reports that flaky skin mice exhibit skin and nail features that closely resemble human psoriasis vulgaris, suggesting they may serve as a natural model for this condition.

This narrative review reflects on the challenges faced by FDA's Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee members, highlighting public pressure, decision-making complexity, and the evolving landscape of cancer drug development.

This study observed two cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia developing on preexisting vitiligo, suggesting a potential causal link between the two conditions.

This review discusses the current understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia's pathogenesis, highlighting genetic susceptibility, immune response involvement, and possible links to steroid hormones, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that deferoxamine may protect against sensorineural hearing loss by reducing oxidative stress-induced hair cell death through iron chelation and activation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway in lab models.

This study found that OPC-17116 can be reliably detected in hair, suggesting it can serve as an index of drug exposure and a time-marker in hair analysis.

This systematic review discusses the treatment characteristics and outcomes for frontal fibrosing alopecia specifically in Black patients with skin of color, addressing a gap in clinical evidence due to underrepresentation in studies.

This review addresses the challenges in treating frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting the limited effectiveness of medical treatments and the demand for hair transplantation despite its risks, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review explores current therapeutic options for frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting the use of finasteride, topical tacrolimus, hydroxychloroquine, and excimer laser in managing the condition, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that adding the topical product CG210 to oral finasteride 1mg significantly increased hair diameter more than finasteride alone in male androgenetic alopecia patients already stabilized on finasteride treatment.

This report presents four new cases of follicular porokeratosis, which exhibit distinct histological features where the cornoid lamella are confined to the follicular ostia.

In this study, the CYP 21A2 gene p.V281L mutation was associated with an increased susceptibility to familial frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting an antigen-driven mechanism linked to certain human leukocyte antigen haplotypes.

The study suggests hormonal factors may play a role in Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia and that treatments like oral antiandrogens and steroids could be beneficial.

This study observed that the osteopontin-derived peptide FOL-005 inhibited hair growth in human scalp skin models, contrary to its hair growth promotion in mice, supporting further clinical testing for excessive hair growth treatment.
