This study found that long-lived proteins in mice, identified across various tissues, may be linked to neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases due to their low renewal rate and increased risk of damage.

This report describes the first known pediatric cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia, a condition typically affecting postmenopausal women, highlighting its occurrence in children including female twins.

In this study, patients with lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia reported a substantial impairment in quality of life and experienced high levels of stress, often considering stress a cause of their condition.

This study observed that in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia, treatments with LTF, 5% minoxidil, and LTF-DPC-EXO significantly promoted hair regeneration compared to the model group, potentially through modulation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

This study suggests that macrophages play a more substantial role in the pathogenesis of Lichen planopilaris compared to Frontal fibrosing alopecia, as indicated by increased CD68+ cells in Lichen planopilaris.

Frontal fibrosing alopecia is a scarring hair loss condition mainly affecting postmenopausal women, with unclear causes.

In this case report, the researchers identified pathogenic compound heterozygous mutations in a young girl with lipoid proteinosis, noting her relatively mild symptoms and recommending genetic testing for early diagnosis and management of this rare condition.

PLLA injections can cause hair loss and skin issues.

This study demonstrated that ablation of individual somatostatin-expressing interneurons increased activity in nearby neurons of the mouse motor cortex during motor learning.

This case report details the dermoscopic features of bilateral cutaneous larva migrans in an adult male, noting similarities with lymphangioma circumscriptum but highlights that typical dermoscopy magnification may be insufficient for diagnosis.

This study found that tofacitinib significantly improved disease activity in most patients with LPP, though further research is needed to refine protocols, understand response predictors, and address gender-specific adverse effects.

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.

This case report identifies an adolescent with symptoms indicative of Dunnigan-type partial lipodystrophy, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis to manage associated metabolic complications and improve self-esteem.

This study presents a novel in vitro assay using human folliculoid microspheres to research hair growth, which may facilitate preclinical testing of hair growth-modulatory agents.

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.

This study found that FGF5-/- rabbits exhibited a significant long hair phenotype by prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting FGF5 acts as a negative regulator of hair growth.

This report suggests that patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax should be evaluated for FLCN mutations, as they may indicate Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome and associated cancer risks.

This case study reports that a combination of PUVA therapy and oral methyl prednisolone initially improved symptoms of a woman's cutaneous T-cell lymphoma but required ongoing treatment due to recurrence.

This study found that elevated luteinizing hormone levels were significantly associated with female pattern hair loss, and implicated LH/LHR signaling in the aging and damage of hair follicles.

This study identified four circulating microRNAs as highly predictive of frontal fibrosing alopecia status, suggesting potential roles in diagnostics and disease understanding.

In this study, micro-autologous fat transplantation (MAFT) for frontal augmentation using the MAFT-GUN showed high patient satisfaction and no complications among 178 patients, suggesting it may be a reliable method for forehead contouring.

This study reviewed 18 postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting frontotemporal hairline recession and eyebrow loss, often treated with steroids, triamcinolone, and other medications.

This study found that MRP3 is induced in wound edge keratinocytes during wound healing and may play a role as a growth or angiogenesis factor in this process and the hair follicle cycle.

In this study, a patient with lichen planopillaris experienced complete resolution of itching and hair shedding following treatment with a new platelet-rich plasma regimen, marking the first reported success in this context.

This study reports the first known case of oral lichen planus preceding lichen planopilaris in a patient, highlighting a possible sequential relationship between the conditions.

This case report highlights the challenge of distinguishing between neuropsychiatric lupus and rituximab-associated progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in systemic lupus erythematosus patients, emphasizing the importance of early recognition and careful management.

This letter argues that cicatricial pattern hair loss likely represents end-stage androgenetic alopecia and not a variant of lichen planopilaris, as previously suggested.

This study reports that most cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia did not show significant improvement with available treatments, and effective management remains unproven.

In this study, researchers observed that low levels of fucose-binding lectin staining characterize limbal epithelial progenitor cells, which maintain a high proliferative capacity and may be enhanced by inhibiting fucosylation, offering insights for regenerative therapy of the limbal stem cell niche.

This review discusses Graham-Little Piccardi-Lasseur syndrome, a rare dermatosis with limited treatment options, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis through physical exam and dermoscopy, but reports no new results.
