This case report describes a rare occurrence of lichen planopilaris on the face in a 45-year-old man, contributing to the limited existing cases in the literature.

Chitosan/LiCl composite scaffolds help heal deep skin wounds better.

Lichen planopilaris is a rare, chronic condition causing hair loss, mainly in middle-aged women, and early treatment is important to prevent permanent baldness.

This study found that in lichen planopilaris, the basement membrane zone of the hair follicles exhibited disrupted and discontinuous staining patterns, potentially contributing to scarring and irreversible hair loss.

This study found that oral etretinate improved skin conditions like erythrodermic and pustular psoriasis, although less so for psoriasis vulgaris and lichen planus, with notable side effects including cheilitis and mucous membrane dryness.

This study reports the first known case of linear lichen planopilaris following Blaschko's lines in a nonfacial region.

This study found that modeling and simulation effectively informed decision-making and dose selection for ritlecitinib in treating alopecia areata, supporting an accelerated drug development strategy.

This study found that both an anti-dandruff shampoo containing piroctone olamine and climbazole and its combination with a tonic reduced dandruff and inflammation, with the combination showing superior results.

In this case report, a severe case of pediatric alopecia areata was treated with topical ruxolitinib, a Janus kinase inhibitor, highlighting the limited but promising evidence for this treatment in children.

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.

This study used atomic force microscopy to identify significant morphological differences in hair from patients with lichen planopilaris compared to healthy controls, noting more scratches, uneven edges, and pitted scales in affected hair, which may aid future research on the condition.

In this study, researchers overexpressed Lrig3 in mouse skin and observed hair loss linked to changes in skin protein profiles and signaling pathways, suggesting a potential role for Lrig3 in maintaining skin homeostasis.

This study explored the creation of 3D-printed baricitinib pills using polylactic acid and found that the doughnut-shaped tablets increased surface area and drug release, with 59% released from the higher concentration pill over 24 hours.

This review examines the potential applications of human platelet lysates in regenerative medicine but reports no new experimental findings.

Ritlecitinib may help young adults with severe alopecia areata when ketoconazole doesn't work.

This study found that adding low-dose oral minoxidil to standard treatment for lichen planopilaris was safe but did not significantly improve hair density or thickness, although minor hair regrowth was observed in some scarring areas.

This article reviews lichen planopilaris, its presentation, and treatment challenges, and emphasizes the need for more research into its pathogenesis and therapy efficacy; it reports no new findings.

This study observed that rhizobacterial strain RT3 significantly improved drought tolerance in lettuce by increasing survival rates and fresh biomass after rewatering, with metabolites such as proline and glycine enhancing stress resilience.

No treatment showed clear superiority for lichen planopilaris.

In this study, patients with active lymphocytic cicatricial alopecia showed significant improvement using a three-stage treatment regimen involving Tofacitinib, Apremilast, and Crisaborole, with 93.5% experiencing marked improvement and only three mild adverse events reported.

Repaglinide-loaded liponiosomal hybrids improve blood sugar control and insulin release better than regular Repaglinide.

This study found that systemic mycophenolate mofetil and topical clobetasol were equally effective at reducing lichen planopilaris activity over six months, but satisfaction differed between the treatments.

This study found that cystatin M/E strongly inhibits human cathepsin V and cathepsin L via distinct non-overlapping sites, suggesting an important role in human epidermal differentiation and hair follicle morphogenesis.

This review outlines the current state and future prospects of using layer-by-layer self-assembly for cell encapsulation in biomedical applications, such as cell-based biosensors, transplantation, and tissue engineering, while also discussing its limitations and potential advancements.

This study found that laccase-assisted grafting of poly(tyrosine) onto wool materials improved shrinkage resistance and mechanical properties while causing minor decreases in crystallinity and thermal resistance, suggesting a potential "green" approach to enhance wool durability.

This study developed a sustainable biotechnological process using Bacillus licheniformis strains to produce keratin hydrolysate from chicken feathers, and found that cosmetic hair serum with this ingredient improved hair smoothness, elasticity, and shine in a small focus group.
