This case report describes a 26-year-old with systemic lupus erythematosus presenting with psoriatic alopecia, revealing a novel scalp dermoscopic pattern of “patchy dotted vessels.

This study found that PRL-1-overexpressing PD-MSCs reduced adipogenesis in orbital fibroblasts from Graves' ophthalmopathy patients by secreting IGFBPs and modulating the FAK pathway.

In this study, 16% of patients on dupilumab for atopic dermatitis experienced mild cutaneous adverse events, most commonly facial redness and psoriasis, leading to discontinuation in about 3% of cases.

This review covers the use of platelet-rich plasma in dermatology for wound healing, hair restoration, skin rejuvenation, and dermal augmentation, and notes the need for standardized guidelines.

This study observed similar D2-40 expression in scarring and nonscarring alopecia, with some increase in scarring cases, suggesting possible Fos-dependent mechanisms, though more research is needed for definitive conclusions.

This study compared two PRP preparation techniques for treating androgenetic alopecia and found that both methods led to some improvement in hair loss, but further research is suggested due to variations in PRP preparation.

This study found that after application of a testosterone cream containing 17α-methyltestosterone and testosterone propionate, these compounds could be detected in dried blood spots up to 97 hours post-application, potentially leading to sample contamination during fingertip puncture.

Combining low-level laser therapy with topical corticosteroids effectively improved Lichen Planopilaris symptoms.

This study found that Dkk4-knockout mice exhibited disrupted hair follicle patterning, including a lack of the first wave of hair follicles in the lateral back skin.

This case report highlights that early signs like pili torti may precede lichen planopilaris in some patients, emphasizing the importance of timely intervention to prevent permanent hair loss.

This case report describes an elderly man with erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp, who improved with potent topical corticosteroids followed by maintenance with topical tacrolimus.

In this phase 2 trial, STS01 1% significantly improved hair regrowth in patients with mild to moderate patchy alopecia areata compared to placebo, with a manageable skin irritation side effect profile.

This study found that chronic high dosages of 2-(difluoromethyl)-dl-ornithine caused various toxicities in rats and dogs, with some effects potentially minimized at lower dosages.

This study explored the epigenetic mechanisms of dermal fibroblast progenitor differentiation and found that the repressive chromatin profile from H3K27me3 prevents these progenitors from reforming skin in allograft assays, despite their multipotent potential.

This review discusses the evolution of platelet concentrates in regenerative medicine, highlighting a proposed function-driven classification that distinguishes three generations of PCs by biological activity rather than development order, with third-generation exosome-based therapies showing superior therapeutic efficacy over earlier formulations.

Up to 10% of hair loss patients might have early signs of a condition called Lichen Planopilaris.

This review discusses the biological mechanisms, preparation techniques, and clinical applications of platelet-rich plasma therapy, highlighting its variable outcomes and potential improvements for efficacy and standardization; it reports no new clinical results.

This study identified various methodological inconsistencies in systematic reviews on platelet-rich plasma therapy for pattern hair loss, suggesting a need for rigorous adherence to established guidelines.

This review explores the efficacy and safety of treatments for dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, revealing a predominance of case reports and series, and concludes that randomized controlled trials are needed for better evidence-based therapies.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) shows promise for tissue repair and immune response, but more research is needed to fully understand it and optimize its use.

This review discusses the application of platelet-rich plasma in cosmetic dermatology for tissue regeneration, wound healing, and alopecia treatment, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, laparoscopic ovarian diathermy with three to five punctures per ovary improved reproductive outcomes for women with clomiphene-resistant polycystic ovary syndrome, while more than six punctures may cause excessive ovarian damage.

This study found that plasmacytoid dendritic cells are central to the pathogenesis of alopecia areata, suggesting they may help differentiate it from trichotillomania and androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses the role of trichoscopy in diagnosing lichen planopilaris and reports no clinical results; the authors emphasize early recognition to potentially prevent permanent scarring.

This review discusses the potential of platelet-rich plasma as a new and promising treatment for striae distensa, noting its lack of associated risks like hyperpigmentation or infection, but reports no clinical results.

This study suggests that the interaction between folliculin and plakophilin-4 (p0071) may play a role in folliculin's tumor suppressor function by regulating RhoA signaling, impacting cell migration and junction formation.
