Up to 10% of hair loss patients might have early signs of a condition called Lichen Planopilaris.

This review discusses the application of photodynamic therapy for treating oral lichen planus and indicates its potential benefits, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this pilot study, researchers observed a correlation between clinical severity and histologic severity of lichen planopilaris, suggesting that an immunohistochemical scoring system could aid in grading disease activity.

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.

In this study, the combination of Poly-D,L-Lactic Acid and Platelet-Rich Plasma was reported to be effective for improving wrinkle severity and skin brightness in a 45-year-old woman.

This study reports that the autotaxin–LPA–LPA3 signaling pathway at the embryo-epithelial boundary plays a critical role in decidualization by up-regulating HB-EGF and COX-2 in the uterine epithelium.

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.

Low level laser or LED therapy combined with infiltrations may help hair growth.

In a study reviewing 291 patients with lichen planopilaris, findings revealed that women were more commonly affected than men, cyclosporine and methotrexate were most effective in achieving remission, and 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and systemic retinoids were particularly beneficial for frontal fibrosing alopecia.

In this study, researchers investigated the role of the ATX-LPA axis in asthma pathogenesis using human and mouse models and highlighted the potential for developing new ATX inhibitors as effective asthma treatments.

This review discusses the applications of low level laser therapy (LLLT) in wound healing, pain reduction, and treating various conditions, but reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the need for randomized controlled trials for serious diseases.

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 highlighted an instance of lichen spinulosus emerging as a new cutaneous sequela in a boy following toxic epidermal necrolysis, responding to treatment with ammonium lactate.

The study suggests that immune privilege collapse in bulge cells and the involvement of pro-inflammatory cytokine interferon-γ contribute to hair follicle stem cell loss in lichen planopilaris.

In this case report, a rare form of chronic cutaneous lupus, lupus erythematosus profundus, was treated effectively with topical and systemic therapies, leading to improvement and healing of ulcerations, though resulting in atrophic scars and macules.

This case study reported that a 34-year-old woman with classic lichen planopilaris achieved disease remission after two months of hydroxychloroquine treatment following ineffective corticosteroid therapy.

This case report highlights that early signs like pili torti may precede lichen planopilaris in some patients, emphasizing the importance of timely intervention to prevent permanent hair loss.

The review concluded that better studies are needed to prove if Low-Level Laser Therapy devices for hair growth really work.

This study found that a positive anagen pull test can be an indicator of lichen planopilaris activity, suggesting its utility in the clinical assessment of this condition.

This study reviews the mechanism and potential treatment roles of low-level laser therapy for immune-mediated skin diseases, reporting no new clinical results.

This study found that lysophosphatidic acid increases mesenchymal stem cell proliferation and migration through signaling pathways and reactive oxygen species, implicating potential applications in stem cell expansion.

PRP treatment improved skin pigmentation and appearance in facial lichen planus pigmentosus.

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.

Lichen planus pigmentosus and fibrosing frontal alopecia in Colombia are likely different stages of the same disease.

This study found that individuals with lichen planopilaris reported lower quality of life and self-esteem and higher depression scores compared to healthy controls.

This review discusses the potential mechanisms and evidence supporting low-level laser therapy for stimulating hair growth in men and women, while noting its safety and effectiveness but needing further study on specific parameters.

This study investigated the relationship between lichen planus and dyslipidemia but did not report any clinical findings.

This study found that POD-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles using 0.5% poloxamer 188 and 1.5% soybean lecithin (P-SLN) improved epidermal targeting and POD accumulation in porcine skin compared to traditional tincture.

This study suggests that using a non-medicated, hypo-allergenic scalp clarifying shampoo may improve hair volume and reduce shedding in women with lichen planopilaris and female pattern hair loss.

This systematic review suggests that platelet-rich plasma may significantly improve symptoms in oral lichen planus with effects comparable to corticosteroids, although more research is needed to confirm these findings.
