In this case report, an 11-year-old girl was diagnosed with lipedematous scalp, a condition typically observed in adult women, based on clinical features and histopathological findings.

This study found that lichen planopilaris is a common cause of scalp scarring alopecia in adults and has distinctive clinical features that help differentiate it from other similar conditions.

This study identified 64 chemical compounds in the L. luteus L. plant, including several fatty acids and coumarin, highlighting the pharmacognostic potential of yellow lupine.

This article reviews lichen planopilaris, a chronic scarring alopecia, and explores recent treatment developments, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the lncRNA018392, responsive to melatonin, accelerates cell proliferation in cashmere goats by recruiting the transcription factor SPI1 to upregulate the nearby gene CSF1R, which may explain the molecular mechanisms of cashmere growth.

This study found that oral tofacitinib improved disease activity in patients with lichen planopilaris, suggesting it may be a promising treatment option for this condition.

Results are not reported in this article by Zizhuo Li et al. on baricitinib as a treatment for lichen planopilaris.

In this study, BP201, derived from porcine lung phospholipids, promoted hair growth in mice, especially when combined with minoxidil, and increased hair follicle numbers and dermal papilla cell proliferation.

The authors concluded that low energy laser therapy may serve as a useful complementary treatment for skin diseases such as lichen planus, infectious finger pulpits, scalp alopecia, and crural ulcers.

This source reports that a comprehensive review of LSS gene variant phenotypes enhances understanding of congenital hypotrichosis 14 and could guide more precise genetic counseling and future research into disease mechanisms and potential therapies.

This review discusses various strategies to enhance drug delivery through the skin barrier, highlighting liposomes as promising carriers for increased dermal concentrations in topical therapies, but reports no new research results.

Fermented Liriope platyphylla helps hair grow in mice with hair loss.

This review discusses the formation of gintonin LPAs in ginseng during processing and reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest potential benefits against degenerative diseases through LPA receptors.

This study found that using a blunt cannula for lip augmentation is a safe and effective alternative to traditional needle methods, resulting in no bruising and high patient satisfaction, which may influence future cosmetic practices.

In this case report, a 65-year-old woman with lichen planopilaris achieved stabilization of her condition through early recognition and systemic corticosteroid therapy, emphasizing the critical role of coordinated management between primary care and dermatology.

A mutation in the KRT25 gene causes a rare hair disorder with thin, woolly hair.

This study identified mutations in the SNRPE gene that may disrupt hair growth, linking a spliceosome component to hereditary hair loss disorders.

This study found that overexpression of sPLA2-X in mice was associated with alopecia and hair follicle abnormalities, highlighting its potential role in hair follicle homeostasis.

This study identified specific genetic variants as the cause of visual impairment and non-syndromic alopecia in two brothers, reinforcing the link between PDE6H variants and achromatopsia and LPAR6 variants and alopecia.

In this study, researchers sequenced the KRT71 gene in 102 dromedary camels to find genetic polymorphisms linked to hair shape, identifying 17 variants but none that fully explained hair shape variations, suggesting other genes may also play a role.

In this study, researchers created a mouse model using CRISPR/Cas9 technology to investigate hypotrichosis simplex and woolly hair, finding that Krt71-knockout mice exhibited curly hair and developed complete hair shedding without immune deficiencies, mimicking conditions seen in humans and potentially aiding future hair disorder research.
