This study found that Lrig1-positive cells in mouse epidermis are a previously unidentified source of adult interfollicular epidermal stem cells, which can contribute to sebaceous gland and epidermal lineage formation.

In this study, a patient with recalcitrant lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia showed significant improvement after receiving four doses of the interleukin-23 monoclonal antibody tildrakizumab.

This case report describes a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed both alopecia areata and lichen planopilaris despite immunosuppressive treatment, suggesting a shared immunopathogenesis between these disorders.

This study introduced a new laser-only method called EKA for acne treatment, which is reported to be safe, painless, and heat-free, showing promising results for both acne and scar repair in initial sessions without combining with LED light.

This report details a case where diffuse lichen planopilaris and female pattern hair loss in a 32-year-old woman mimicked diffuse alopecia areata, highlighting the diagnostic value of dermoscopy-guided biopsies and the importance of timely treatment to prevent disease progression.

In this study, methotrexate therapy with or without corticosteroids showed similar efficacy and safety in treating patients with lichen planopilaris, with no significant differences in the primary outcome or adverse effects between the two groups.

This article discusses Graham-Little Piccardi Lassueur Syndrome, a rare variant of Lichen planopilaris, but reports no clinical findings or results.

This review suggested that low-level light therapy using red/near-infrared light could be a safe and effective treatment for various skin and hair conditions, though more robust trials are needed to solidify its clinical utility.

In this study, injecting Nε-(carboxymethyl) lysine into skin tissue weakened hair shaft and follicle formation, likely by inhibiting cell proliferation and migration needed for hair follicle morphogenesis.

In this case study, a patient with refractory oral lichen planus experienced marked improvement within one month of daily treatment with baricitinib, contributing to the evidence supporting the use of JAK inhibitors for lichen planus.

This review summarizes recent discoveries of GPCRs for lysophosphatidylserine and lysophosphatidylinositol, detailing their roles as lipid mediators, but reports no new experimental results.

This case report suggests that exosome therapy may offer a promising alternative treatment for lichen planopilaris, showing potential benefits in hair regrowth, reduced inflammation, and improved scalp condition, but further studies are needed to confirm long-term efficacy and safety.

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 found that while the CLASI is generally useful for assessing disease activity and damage in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, it may not accurately reflect all subtypes, indicating a need for revision.

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.

Lichen Planus is a less common condition affecting skin and mucous membranes, with various types and associated risk factors, challenging to diagnose, significantly impacts life quality, and may have a risk of cancerous changes in oral lesions.

This study conducted at a Moroccan tertiary dermatology center describes the characteristics of pediatric lichen, highlighting that dermoscopy can improve diagnostic accuracy by identifying distinct patterns across clinical variants, with lichen sclerosus being the most frequent subtype among the children studied.

This study demonstrated that a 12-week treatment with luliconazole-containing shampoo significantly reduced scalp scaling, erythema, and itching in adults with seborrheic dermatitis, achieving high tolerability and progressive symptom improvement without reported intolerance or recurrences.

This study found that the Cutaneous Lupus Disease Area and Severity Index (CLASI) is correlated with both physician-assessed and patient-reported outcomes in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, particularly highlighting concerns about body image in visible areas.

A machine learning model can predict scarring in lichen planopilaris using factors like vitamin D levels and diagnostic delay.

This review discusses lichen planopilaris in children and highlights its rarity, potential for misdiagnosis, and need for suspicion in atypical or treatment-resistant alopecia cases, but reports no new results.

This case report suggests that lithium, either alone or with haloperidol, may induce skin changes resembling follicular mycosis fungoides.

In this case study, a 12-year-old boy with isolated nail lichen planus showed significant improvement after receiving intramuscular triamcinolone acetonide and topical tacrolimus treatment, although his great toenails were less responsive.

This study found that immune privilege collapse in the hair follicle bulge and associated immune responses may contribute significantly to the pathogenesis of lichen planopilaris, suggesting a potential autoimmune basis for the disease.

This research observed that multifocal pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia may explain some cases of squamous nests in vulvar lichen sclerosus with lichen simplex chronicus, potentially as a reaction to tissue damage rather than squamous cell carcinoma.

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 study found diverse clinical presentations of lichen planopilaris, with classic lichen planopilaris being the most common, highlighting the importance of recognizing this variability for accurate diagnosis.

Two patients had a rare combination of red skin spots and white scaly skin lesions not on the genitals.

This study found that patients with lichen planus had significantly higher levels of triglycerides, total cholesterol, and LDL-C, and lower HDL-C compared to healthy controls, suggesting an association with dyslipidaemia.
