This letter reports the first known Japanese case of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with compound heterozygous mutations in the LIPH gene.

Results are not provided in this abstract. It discusses a comparison between the efficacy of minoxidil alone and in combination with low-level laser therapy for treating androgenic alopecia.

This study found that novel MPC inhibitor analogues with specific chemical modifications promoted significant hair growth in shaved mice when applied topically.

This study found that DC-HIL+ myeloid derived suppressor cells are increased in the blood and skin of patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus and show immunosuppressive properties.

In this study, PDLLA treatment in middle-aged mice was observed to enhance hair growth by increasing macrophage M2 polarization and hair follicle stem cell proliferation, potentially rejuvenating the skin's microenvironment and offering a novel approach for age-related hair loss.

Women in Australia report different signs of facial aging compared to women in the US, UK, and Canada; men with Lichen planopilaris often have hormonal abnormalities and thyroid disease.

This case report presents the first documented instance of basal cell carcinoma and cutaneous leiomyosarcoma occurring as a collision neoplasm in the same biopsy specimen.

This study found that combining low-level light therapy with topical minoxidil 5% may lead to better hair regrowth and patient satisfaction in treating female pattern hair loss compared to using each treatment alone.

This study found that L-borneol, derived from Chinese medicine, significantly promotes the differentiation of rat hair follicle stem cells into basal layer cells, aiding wound healing, with the process involving inhibition of the PODXL2 gene by the microRNA rno-miR-127.

This study found that low-level laser therapy may enhance wound healing and reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation by increasing mitochondrial activity and oxidative stress, leading to greater protein synthesis and cell proliferation.

This study found that miR-339-5p negatively regulates loureirin A-induced differentiation of hair follicle stem cells, potentially impacting skin repair and regeneration by inhibiting the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This article reviews historical uses of the term "lupus" for various skin disorders but provides no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that combining tranexamic acid with low-dose oral retinoids may offer moderate to good improvements for lichen plan pigmentosus, although larger trials are needed for confirmation.

This study describes the development of nanostructured lipid carriers for minoxidil as a potential alternative to conventional topical solutions, showing promise for use in topical formulations.

This article describes a non-blinded study investigating low level laser therapy for seven patients but reports no new clinical findings.

This study describes a case of cyclic thrombocytopenia where a novel MPL gene mutation may contribute to the disease, with gene expression changes in platelet and neutrophil genes preceding platelet count fluctuations.

Recognizing minor skin lesions can help identify serious cancer syndromes.

In this study, 4‐MAPC treatment reduced ventral prostate weight in rats primarily through decreased synthetic activity, with testosterone propionate increasing prostate weight and activity at pharmacologic doses.

In this study, a network meta-analysis found that treating lichen planopilaris with a combination of clobetasol, hydroxychloroquine, and N-acetylcysteine was the most effective approach, while cyclosporine, methotrexate, and some other treatments were less effective compared to hydroxychloroquine.

MPZL3 protein affects hair growth cycles and could help manage hair loss.

This study found that IL-17 expression was significantly higher in perifollicular fibrosis of active Lichen planopilaris lesions, suggesting that targeting IL-17 could impact the disease's progression.

This case report describes a 19-year-old male with systemic lupus erythematosus presenting with an unusual combination of mucinous nonscarring alopecia and papulonodular mucinosis, noted by mucin deposition in skin lesions, which responded partially to treatment with hydroxychloroquine and prednisolone.

The authors reported a case of significant scalp edema accompanying lichen planopilaris in a middle-aged woman, suggesting a potential new variant of edematous scalp conditions as a reaction to scarring alopecia.

This study identified a new subtype of lichen planopilaris that mimics androgenetic alopecia, selectively affecting vellus hair follicles and presenting unique histopathological features.

The LTF gene may help predict and manage nonspecific orbital inflammation.

This study observed that proteins in the mTOR signaling pathway are expressed differently in the hair follicles of patients with lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting a role in the pathogenesis of these conditions.

This study identified a new mouse mutation associated with noninflammatory proliferative skin disease and hair abnormalities, drawing parallels to human conditions like Netherton's syndrome and monilethrix.

This study observed that systemic acitretin improved symptoms in 75% of lichen planopilaris patients, despite varied responses and a dominant female prevalence.

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.

This case report describes a instance of lepromatous leprosy in a renal transplant recipient, highlighting the potential for leprosy in immunocompromised patients and emphasizing the importance of including it in differential diagnoses for unusual skin lesions.
