This letter discusses congenital triangular alopecia (TTA), a non-scarring hair loss condition often seen in children, without reporting new clinical findings.

This research describes using advanced mass spectrometry imaging techniques to analyze gunshot residue and map molecular components in biological samples, such as tumors and mosquito ovarian follicles, at unprecedented spatial resolution and specificity.

This article reviews the causes, classification, and new treatments for pseudofolliculitis barbae but provides no new research findings.

This study in mice suggests that defects in hair follicles with mesenchymal TSC2 disruption may result from an impaired TGFβ1 response, indicating a potential novel treatment approach for tuberous sclerosis complex.

TGF-β receptors are crucial for hair follicle development.

This article reviews frontal fibrosing alopecia, exploring its characteristics, demographics, and associated conditions, and calls for controlled trials due to an increase in worldwide cases; it reports no new findings.

This study suggests that TGF-alpha may function in an autocrine or juxtacrine manner rather than promoting cell proliferation during hair growth cycles in ferrets and sheep.

This review examined the common side effects of FGFR inhibitors like erdafitinib, pemigatinib, and futibatinib, and detailed strategies for managing them, highlighting that proactive monitoring and appropriate interventions can effectively mitigate these toxicities.

This case report presents three sisters with familial frontal fibrosing alopecia, making it the 25th documented familial case, with treatment results observed in one sister.

In this study using mice with specific gene knockouts, both farnesyltransferase and geranylgeranyltransferase-I were found to be essential for the proliferation and survival of skin keratinocytes.

This study observed that temporal triangular alopecia in infants presents with distinct clinical and dermatoscopic features, indicating the usefulness of dermatoscopy for diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

This study investigated transcription factors in human trophectoderm cells during development, finding that GATA2 and GATA3 are essential for transforming stem cells into induced trophoblast stem cells, which display characteristics similar to placental progenitor cells, offering new methods for modeling placental-associated diseases.

In this case report, researchers identified a potential adverse skin reaction, called SDRIFE or Baboon syndrome, caused by the drug tofacitinib in a 19-year-old woman being treated for alopecia subtotalis, leading the authors to recommend discontinuation of the drug.

This case study reports that low-dose testosterone therapy improved libido and sexual functions in a 36-year-old fragile X carrier female with hypoactive sexual desire disorder when monitored regularly for lab parameters.

This study found that while genetic variants contribute minimally to predicting hair greying in a Polish population, age remains the primary predictor, underscoring the complexity of hair greying as a genetic trait.

This study suggests that the progesterone metabolite allopregnanolone and progesterone regulate distinct gene sets involved in glioblastoma cell proliferation, with some overlapping effects modified by finasteride.

This study reported that IGF2BP2 rs1470579 and IGFBP3 rs2854744 may increase the risk of polycystic ovary syndrome in a Southeastern Iranian population.

This study identified key regions and transcription factors, including SIX1 and FOXN1 itself, that regulate Foxn1 expression in thymic epithelial cells and hair follicle cells, offering insights into its transcriptional regulation.

Certain genes influence the direction of hair whorls on the scalp.

This research detailed a single-cell atlas showing dynamic hair follicle stem cell states associated with the hair cycle during aging in mice, highlighting differences in chromatin landscape linked to stem cell differentiation and quiescence, and providing a foundation for future exploration of aging reversal.

This study identified specific genetic markers related to wool quality in Rambouillet sheep, which may aid breeders in making informed selection and breeding decisions for improved fine wool production.

This study reported that during wheat polyploidization, decreased DNA methylation and specific hypomethylated promoters were associated with altered gene transcription, contributing to root hair elongation and improved nitrate uptake, highlighting the role of epigenetic regulation in enhancing crop traits.

This article discusses the characteristics and pathogenesis of pseudofolliculitis barbae, particularly its prevalence in men of African and Asian descent, but presents no new research findings.

This study found that protein hydrolysates from mealworms, especially those derived using flavourzyme, significantly enhance adipogenic differentiation in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, suggesting their potential as sustainable ingredients for glycemic control, skin health, and tissue regeneration products.

This treatise provides guidelines and suggestions for the safe practice of follicular unit transplantation but reports no new clinical results.

Tufted folliculitis is common in patients with folliculitis decalvans.

In this study, researchers found that TSPyV T antigens can disrupt normal cell differentiation and proliferation in hair follicles and interfollicular epidermis, possibly contributing to trichodysplasia spinulosa pathology.

Finasteride may help reduce tic severity in male Tourette syndrome patients.

Hair transplantation effectively treated a bald patch in an 18-year-old woman with Temporal Triangular Alopecia.
