This review integrated findings on the nutritional, pharmacological, and techno-functional properties of Leucaena seeds, highlighting their potential benefits and challenges for human nutrition, particularly due to the presence of the antinutrient mimosine, which can cause adverse effects.

In this Mendelian randomization study, shortened leukocyte telomere length was associated with an increased risk of androgenetic alopecia, but no causal relationship was found with alopecia areata.

The 2-step surgery effectively treats stable follicular vitiligo with high patient satisfaction and no major complications.

This study found that using 70% ethanol as a solvent for extracting unsoaked Leucaena leucocephala seeds produces a high extract yield while managing mimosine levels, indicating potential for nutraceutical use.

This case highlights the importance of considering syphilis testing for patients with unusual symptoms like hair loss and hypopigmentation, emphasizing the diagnostic and management challenges in resource-limited settings.

This study reports that hyperaesthetic leucotrichia primarily affects Arabian and American paint horses, occurring mainly in summer, with histological differences from erythema multiforme despite some shared features.

Leuprolide may better manage cholesterol and blood pressure in PCOS than spironolactone.

In this study, researchers found that the gene LRRC15 was overexpressed in dermal papilla cells from balding areas compared to non-balding areas in patients with androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that temporary or permanent leukotrichia may occur after intense pulsed light therapy for hair removal, likely due to differing thermal effects on melanocytes and hair follicle cells.

This review highlights the complex role of leukocyte migration in both driving inflammation and facilitating its resolution, suggesting that targeted modulation of this process could improve therapeutic strategies for inflammatory diseases.

In this study involving 13 patients with vitiligo-associated leukotrichia, minimal hair repigmentation was observed following treatment with fractional CO₂ laser and topical betamethasone, though the method was well tolerated, highlighting the need for further research to optimize treatment parameters.

This study found that targeting androgen receptors with prostate cancer drugs ARN509 and finasteride induced remission and increased survival in a leukemia mouse model, suggesting a potential new treatment approach for acute myeloid leukemia.

This study describes Coats disease as a non-hereditary, idiopathic retinopathy characterized by abnormal retinal vascular development, noting common symptoms such as leukokoria and strabismus, and emphasizes the use of imaging techniques to differentiate it from retinoblastoma.

In this study, female rats given high doses of testosterone showed decreased endometrial thickness and lower mRNA levels of components in the LIF signalling pathway, indicating that excessive testosterone may negatively impact endometrial receptivity and potentially affect fertility.

This study found that specific dermoscopic signs, such as diameter diversity of leukotrichia and Pohl-Pinkus constrictions, were associated with progressive vitiligo, and early-stage melanin synthesis was impaired in vitiligo-associated leukotrichia.

This case report describes a rare instance of pityriasis amiantacea and cutis verticis gyrata occurring in a 32-year-old man with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, highlighting this previously unreported dermatological manifestation and stressing the importance of clinical awareness.

This study found that dogs with dermatitis exhibited specific histological skin changes, such as hyperkeratosis and inflammatory cell infiltration, and showed increased leukocyte counts compared to non-dermatitis dogs.

In this case report, an 8-year-old boy's crusted scalp lesions and alopecia initially mimicking kerion were ultimately diagnosed as Pre-B acute lymphocytic leukemia after histopathological evaluation revealed leukemia cutis.

This study observed that smallholder cattle farmers in West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia using leucaena as feed managed more cattle and focused more on fattening rather than breeding, but leucaena toxicity led to illnesses such as hair loss and, in a few cases, reproductive issues.

This study evaluated the effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on endometriosis but found no statistically significant overall difference in endometriotic foci size reduction between treated and control groups.

This study found that feeding sheep rations with up to 30% Leucaena leucocephala leaf meal did not significantly affect mimosine concentrations or alter blood metabolites and thyroid hormones, suggesting it can be used without detrimental effects in these aspects.

This article discusses various surgical options for treating leukotrichia in vitiligo patients and reports that hair transplantation shows more promising results, particularly for eyebrows and eyelashes, compared to previous methods.

Most children with skin inflammation taking methotrexate had lab abnormalities, but liver issues often improved without changing the medication dose.

This chapter reviews surgical management techniques for leukotrichia in vitiligo and presents no new clinical findings; it highlights various grafting and epilation methods.

This study found that leukocyte-rich platelet-rich plasma appeared safe and may offer some benefits to patients with scarring alopecia, though further research is needed due to the small sample size.

This study found that CD45RO+ cells, a subtype of T lymphocytes, were notably reduced in the ovarian follicles of women with PCOS, which may contribute to the condition's pathogenesis.

This study observed a strong negative association between the HLA-DQB1*0201 allele and the alopecia totalis/alopecia universalis phenotype in Caucasian individuals, indicating a potential protective role.

This study found that overexpressing the PML protein in transgenic mice decreased skin tumor occurrence and delayed their progression, highlighting PML's potential role in influencing keratinocyte growth and differentiation.

Hair dye with para-phenylenediamine can cause skin depigmentation.

Acyclovir can prevent rejection of skin grafts in herpes-related lip leucoderma.
