This study reports that subtle presentations of lichen planopilaris may be mistaken for seborrheic dermatitis in patients with androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the importance of dermatoscopy-guided biopsy for accurate diagnosis.

This case study presents what is reportedly the first association of Graham Little-Lassueur Syndrome with chronic hepatitis C, observed in a 47-year-old female patient.

This article discusses platelet-rich plasma therapy for cicatricial alopecias like lichen planopilaris and reports no confirmed new clinical results; the authors highlight ongoing uncertainty about its effectiveness and potential risks.

This study found that the L457(3.43)R mutation in the human luteinizing hormone receptor increases phosphodiesterase activity, reducing hormonal response despite elevated basal cAMP levels.

This chapter discusses the process from ideation to patent and licensure for biotechnologies, offering an introduction to the intersection of business, law, and biotechnology without reporting new results.

In this pilot study, researchers observed a correlation between clinical severity and histologic severity of lichen planopilaris, suggesting that an immunohistochemical scoring system could aid in grading disease activity.

This study found that p2y5 functions as a novel LPA receptor involved in the G13-Rho signaling pathway, with implications for human hair growth, and proposes renaming it to LPA6.

The project developed and tested a method using plasma rich platelets to treat hair loss.

In this case report, purpura was associated with lithium treatment at therapeutic levels, highlighting the importance of monitoring for symptoms of intoxication even when lithium concentrations appear normal.

This study provides one of the first descriptions of the demographic, clinical, and therapeutic characteristics of lichen planopilaris in Chilean adults, reporting that treatment usually reduced or halted disease progression.

This study developed a legally valid, evidence-based informed consent document specifically for platelet-rich plasma injections, intended to enhance patient rights and communication, and support legal defense in malpractice cases.

LIPH mutations cause woolly hair in some Chinese people.

This study identified a gene mutation in the LIPH gene associated with inherited hair loss and hair growth defects in certain populations, suggesting lipase H plays a role in hair development.

This study found that BBS7 downregulation in occlusal hypofunctional PDL affects Sonic hedgehog signaling activity, impacting PDL homeostasis.

This study reported that four patients with lichen planopilaris showed dramatic improvement, including symptom reduction and hair regrowth, after treatment with low-level light therapy.

This study found that biodegradable PLA particles released fluorochromes in a time-dependent manner on human skin, with BP-PLA particles releasing rapidly and DiAsp-PLA particles providing sustained release and accumulation in hair follicles.

This study found that using 369LAB Lipid Bond, derived from plant oil triglycerides, can restore lipid content in damaged hair to natural levels and improve hair strength, integrity, and resilience after a single application, with benefits persisting even after discontinuation.

This study found that individuals with homozygous loss-of-function mutations in PLAAT3 experience a novel type of partial lipodystrophy linked to defects in white adipose tissue differentiation and function.

This review reports that low-level laser therapy may effectively prevent and alleviate oral mucositis from chemotherapy, supporting its use as a viable treatment option.

This study presents a method using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry to quantify biotin in plasma and serum, and explores how high biotin intake can interfere with diagnostic immunoassays that utilize biotin-streptavidin technology, potentially leading to misdiagnosis of endocrine disorders.

This study examined monoclonal antibodies LT-1, LT-2, and LT-7, finding they can effectively detect certain antigens on T and B cells involved in various lymphoproliferative diseases, aiding in the diagnosis of both acute and chronic lymphoid neoplasias.

This study identified a new dermoscopic feature, plexiform erythema, in lichen planopilaris lesions, suggesting it may indicate active disease and the potential need for more aggressive treatment.

This case study reported a rare occurrence of lepromatous leprosy with Lucio phenomenon in a 50-year-old Indonesian living in Malaysia, highlighting the necessity for primary care practitioners, even in non-endemic areas, to recognize this serious leprosy reaction to prevent complications and transmission.

The researchers reported that the novel MBTPS2 variant p.Glu172Asp found in a male proband is likely pathogenic, consistent with osteogenesis imperfecta symptoms and molecular signatures, including disrupted fatty acid metabolism and collagen production.

This study introduced the BASP classification, a new system for categorizing pattern hair loss in both men and women, and applied it to analyze 2213 Korean subjects.

In this study, deleting the transcriptional pause factor Nelfb in mouse preadipocyte lineages led to defective dermal fat formation and lethal outcomes, while interventions targeting Pparg could rescue adipocyte differentiation and promote dermal white adipose tissue formation, underscoring Nelfb's critical role in adipogenesis.

This case report in a child suggests that lichen planus pemphigoides may represent a heterogeneous group of disorders, potentially triggered by conditions like varicella.

Hair transplants can risk reactivating lichen planopilaris, a scarring hair loss condition.

This study found that bovine lactoferrin promotes hair growth in mice by enhancing dermal papilla cell proliferation through the Erk/Akt and Wnt signaling pathways.

In this study, Lespedeza bicolor extract was found to enhance dermal papilla cell proliferation and extend the anagen phase in mice, suggesting its potential as a treatment for alopecia.
