This study reported discovering a novel missense variant in a case of autosomal recessive woolly hair in a 31-year-old Chinese woman, which significantly reduced secretion of the encoded protein, likely leading to disease by impairing its hydrolytic function.

This study found that a combination of vitamins in hair care products promoted hair shaft elongation in a mouse model by activating the PlGF/VEGFR-1 signaling pathway.

This study found that FGF18 signaling helps protect hair follicles from radiation damage by maintaining the resting phase and supporting stem cell survival, potentially reducing radiation-induced hair loss.

The authors concluded that pattern hair loss is a complex condition with limited treatment efficacy and two FDA-approved drugs, finasteride and minoxidil, to slow its progression.

This article discusses the challenges in understanding and treating premature graying of hair and calls for more extensive research, reporting no new findings.

This study found that GPC1 is a key regulator of angiogenesis in hair follicles and may be an interesting target for addressing alopecia in dermatology research.

This case study suggests that treatment with Pil-Food, intended for hair loss prevention, may have triggered postinfantile giant cell hepatitis with autoimmune characteristics, which showed a rapid and effective response to corticosteroid therapy.

This study observed that incorporating human follicle dermal papilla cells into fibrin microgels increased cell viability and the formation of hair follicle structures in in vitro skin cultures compared to traditional dermal papilla spheroids, suggesting a promising approach for hair follicle regeneration therapies.

This study found that FGF signaling is necessary for the initiation of feather placode development in chicken embryos, with FGF10 being implicated as an early dermal signal in the process.

This study found that the penta-peptide Gly-Pro-Ile-Gly-Ser increased the proportion of thick hair and improved baldness appearance in Japanese men with androgenetic alopecia.

This study observed that five out of fourteen individuals aged 13-16 years, who were homozygous for the p.C282Y mutation related to hemochromatosis, had increased liver and phlebotomy-mobilized iron levels.

In this study using an animal model, researchers found that PEGL-DOX, unlike DOX, causes Hand-Foot Syndrome due to reactive oxygen species interacting with skin tissue, leading to skin-specific inflammatory responses.

This study suggests that abnormal hair cycles in Hr mutant mice may be caused by HR protein overexpression, which down-regulates miR-31 and increases Tgf-β2 expression.

This article reviews advancements in hair transplantation, highlighting robotic and follicular unit techniques, and discusses adjuvant modalities like platelet-rich plasma, lasers, and stem cells without reporting new clinical results.

This study identified SFRP2 and PTGDS as potential biomarkers for female pattern hair loss, finding these genes consistently upregulated in bald hair follicles from all 18 patients, which may contribute to understanding the condition's pathogenesis and developing targeted treatments.

This study found that finasteride treatment reduced urinary androgen and prostaglandin levels in male pattern baldness patients to levels similar to healthy controls.

This abstract highlights that Hickey and colleagues provided an overview of non-hormonal treatments for menopausal symptoms but missed discussing female pattern hair loss (FPHL), a common issue during menopause.

This review discusses the potential applications of prostaglandin F2α analogs for certain types of alopecia and hypopigmentation, but reports no new experimental results.

This study confirmed that porcine platelet-rich plasma could commercially replace fetal bovine serum due to its higher growth factor levels and effectiveness as a hair growth promoter comparable to existing serum.

This study found that growth factor cocktail treatment including FGF9, combined with microneedling, significantly improved hair density in androgenetic alopecia patients compared to treatment with regular GFC or normal saline.

This review discusses recent advances in the diagnosis and management of female pattern hair loss but reports no new clinical results.

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 found that hyaluronic acid increased the size of hair follicle germ-like aggregates and the number of proliferative cells but did not maintain specific markers during the process.

In this study, microneedle-assisted delivery of polyglutamate significantly improved hair parameters, scalp symptoms, and quality of life in androgenetic alopecia patients, with no serious adverse reactions reported.

This study found that a 2% polyherbal phyto-complex cream containing aqueous extracts of Trichosanthes cucumerina and Abrus precatorius effectively promoted hair growth in preclinical tests, comparable to minoxidil 2%.

This study concluded that adding a topical agent to intense pulsed light therapy significantly improved hair reduction and patient satisfaction in Pakistani women with idiopathic facial hirsutism compared to light therapy alone, without increasing adverse effects.

This study found that freeze-dried homologous platelet-rich plasma (FD HPRP) increased osteocalcin levels in cultured osteoblasts, suggesting its potential to support bone regeneration in periodontal treatment.

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, researchers developed a new method called Enriched-GF, which enhances growth factor recovery from platelet concentrates through a combination of glass bead activation, freeze-thaw cycling, and calcium stimulation, outperforming conventional methods by providing higher and more consistent yields for regenerative medicine applications.
