This study reports that compound heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in the HEPHL1 gene in a child were associated with abnormal hair and cognitive issues, linking altered ferroxidase activity to hair disorders.

This article discusses the use of PRP and long-acting PRP for treating Female Pattern Hair Loss, emphasizing their potential benefits, but reports no new clinical results.

This report from the UK reviews the literature on post-menopausal frontal fibrosing alopecia and highlights its under-recognition and distinctive characteristics compared to lichen planopilaris, but does not provide new results.

This review discusses the clinical, epidemiological, and pathophysiological aspects of female pattern hair loss, reporting no new research findings.

This study found that HIF-P4H-2 function in FoxD1-lineage cells is crucial for normal hair follicle development and homeostasis in mice, implicating disrupted HIF, TGF-β, and Notch signaling pathways in associated defects.

In this case study from King Fahad University Hospital, an 11-month-old Saudi boy with a history of short, non-growing hair was diagnosed with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, attributed to a homozygous mutation in the LIPH gene.

This study identified a specific LIPH gene mutation (736T>A) as common in Japanese patients with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, potentially indicating its role in the condition's manifestation within this population.

This study found that RALF peptides, through liquid-liquid phase separation, form condensates with pectin and other proteins, playing a pivotal role in plant development and stress response regulation.

This study found that a hair conditioner using peptides from Pneumatophorus japonicus heads improved damaged hair's structure, gloss, and smoothness more effectively than a commercial wheat protein conditioner by increasing amino acid content and interacting with hair keratin.

This study found that platelet factor 4 in platelet-rich plasma suppresses human hair follicle growth and alters related gene expressions, suggesting potential implications for its use in hair loss treatment.

LIPH mutations cause woolly hair in some Chinese people.

This ex vivo study found that hair follicles in female pattern hair loss exhibited nutrient insufficiency and dormant metabolism, but maintained nutrient uptake capability, suggesting potential benefits of nutritional supplementation as an adjunct therapy.

This study identified a novel splice site mutation in the LIPH gene associated with autosomal recessive woolly hair, contributing to understanding the genetic basis of this condition.

This study found that Epiprofin acts as a negative regulator of parathyroid hormone transcription, with potential implications for controlling PTH production in hyperparathyroidism.

This study identified two prevalent and one newly proposed founder LIPH mutations in Japanese patients with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis and associated these mutations with different severities of hair loss.

This study identified that in Japanese patients with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, the c.736T > A LIPH mutation is associated with a mild phenotype, while the c.742C > A mutation may lead to severe baldness.

This study suggests that PF-0998425 is an effective androgen receptor antagonist for sebum control and androgenetic alopecia with rapid metabolism reducing the risk of systemic side effects.

In this study, HA-P5, a nanoparticle derived from peptide and polysaccharide conjugation, effectively reduced acne lesions and sebum production by inhibiting specific receptors in cells, without triggering unfavorable reactions compared to a commercial inhibitor, highlighting HA-P5's potential as a novel acne treatment.

This study found that female pattern hair loss may be influenced by genetic factors and hormonal changes, particularly in young adults, and identified specific dermoscopic features associated with the condition.

In this study, patients with female pattern hair loss had significantly lower serum levels of vitamin D and ferritin, which could be risk factors for the condition's development.

This consensus report provides detailed recommendations for using Polynucleotides Highly Purified Technology™ in aesthetic skin rejuvenation, highlighting its potential as a biostimulatory booster for face and body revitalization.

This case report describes a 66-year-old woman diagnosed with porphyria cutanea tarda, characterized by painless vesicular lesions on sun-exposed areas and associated with hemochromatosis, and managed effectively with phlebotomy.

In this study, combining Polynucleotides High Purification Technology with hyaluronic acid significantly reduced atrophic post-acne scar areas and improved Goodman-Baron scores in a majority of treated patients over six months, reaffirming the approach's beneficial effects in a real-world outpatient setting.

This case report identifies a 32-year-old woman with undiagnosed PHPT-1a who exhibited complete pseudo-anodontia and persistent patchy alopecia areata, suggesting these may be new nonclassical features of a GNAS pathogenic variant.

This study explored the potential of human hair keratin as a filtration material, finding that it may effectively absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutanesulfonate. The researchers reported significant binding affinities through molecular simulations, supporting further investigation into keratin's use for water purification.

This review highlights PRF's potential as a regenerative medicine tool, detailing its diverse applications in dentistry, orthopedics, and dermatology, but presents no new clinical results.

Low androgen levels can still cause female pattern hair loss.

This source reviews treatments for female pattern hair loss and discusses the challenges in achieving effective regrowth, highlighting the need for combinations of topical, systemic, and interventional therapies.

This study found that a novel method of isolating human follicle stem cells from hair follicles via mechanical centrifugation, without culture conditions, promises to improve hair density in patients with Androgenetic Alopecia and some cases of Alopecia Areata.
