This article discusses triangular temporal alopecia, highlighting dermoscopy's role in diagnosis and the limited therapeutic options, without reporting new clinical results.

Researchers found an RNA transcript that might help control a growth factor linked to tumor development.

This study found that keratin 17 and TNFα play interdependent roles in regulating hair follicle cycling, with TNFα required for the anagen–catagen transition and its ablation partially rescuing hair cycling defects in K17-null mice.

This abstract describes frontal fibrosing alopecia, a type of cicatricial alopecia identified in post-menopausal women, and reports no new clinical findings.

This report presents a case where female pattern hair loss might be linked to tamoxifen use, with increased androgen receptor expression observed in the affected scalp area.

This review discusses the various factors implicated in the etiology of frontal fibrosing alopecia and notes the need for effective treatments, reporting no new clinical findings.

In this study, FMN was found to inhibit androgen receptor function and androgen-regulated gene expression in prostate cancer cells, suggesting potential as an antiandrogen therapy.

Nanofat injection is safe and effective for improving skin texture and patient satisfaction.

Men with a certain type of hair loss often use facial moisturizers, and a specific antibiotic treatment may help another hair condition.

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

This study discovered that the gene Tfap2b identifies a melanocyte stem cell population in zebrafish, essential for regenerating melanocytes with multi-fate potential into adult pigment cells.

Higher levels of certain nerve-related proteins are linked to hair loss in women with scalp pain.

This open-label study found that oral tofacitinib led to significant hair regrowth in patients with moderate-to-severe alopecia areata, supported by changes in gene expression and T cell dynamics.

This case study reported that a 15-year-old female developed acquired localized trichorrhexis nodosa, a hair shaft disorder, due to vigorous rubbing of an herbal powder on her scalp as part of local cultural practices.

An intact skin barrier is crucial to prevent infection in cases of tether-induced tenosynovitis.

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.

This study found that Forsythiaside A may protect against sepsis-induced acute kidney injury in mice by reducing inflammation and apoptosis through modulation of ER stress responses.

Tofacitinib helped a 19-year-old regrow hair after other treatments failed.

In this case report, a 42-year-old woman with cutaneous dermatomyositis showed significant improvement, including reduction of erythema, pruritus, and scaling, after starting JAK inhibitor tofacitinib, especially when conventional systemic treatments failed and intravenous immune globulin wasn't viable.

Tofacitinib is a potential alternative treatment for alopecia totalis, especially in patients with a shorter duration of the condition and more preserved hair follicles, but the overall response rate is low.

This study found that TPA induces apoptosis in pig renal epithelial cells by affecting cell cycle proteins, and activated ras can prevent this process.

This article reviews the development of follicular unit transplantation for hair replacement, highlighting its ability to provide natural-looking results with minimal recovery time, but results depend heavily on the skill and planning of the practitioner.

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

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 found a direct correlation between the testicular feminization gene and decreased androgen receptor activity, potentially explaining the androgen insensitivity in affected individuals.

The researchers reported that topical tofacitinib in mice increased hair follicles in the growth phase and boosted noggin and BMP4 mRNA expressions, compared to a vehicle and minoxidil.

In this study, intralesional triamcinolone acetonide injections were associated with halting the progression of frontal fibrosing alopecia in female patients and showed minimal adverse effects, but the efficacy as sole therapy remains unclear pending further trials.

In this report, a 14-year-old female with stubborn alopecia areata was successfully treated with oral tofacitinib, indicating its potential effectiveness for severe cases.

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.

In this study, tofacitinib treatment in a male patient with alopecia areata led to significant hair regrowth and improvement in nail dystrophy symptoms, restoring finger function within 10 months.
