This study suggests that tetracycline may be more effective for treating lichen planopilaris than previously thought, alongside topical high-potency and intralesional corticosteroids.

This article reviews the pathogenesis, complications, and management of lichen planus, especially its persistent oral form, and highlights the need for further prospective studies.

This review discusses the role of trichoscopy in diagnosing lichen planopilaris and reports no clinical results; the authors emphasize early recognition to potentially prevent permanent scarring.

This article reviews the roles of lesser-known secreted phospholipase A2 isoforms in various biological processes, such as immune suppression, metabolic regulation, epidermal hyperplasia, and male reproduction, without reporting new clinical findings.

No treatment showed clear superiority for lichen planopilaris.

This article summarizes the clinical presentation of lichen planopilaris and emphasizes its prevalence among women aged 25 to 70, but reports no new clinical results.

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.

In this study, iL-PRF injections produced significantly better clinical scores for androgenetic alopecia patients compared to controls, especially in those with more severe baseline conditions.

LMWP-PDGFA shows promise for improving hair health and treating hair loss with fewer side effects.

This report describes two unusual cases of lichen planopilaris in Caucasian patients, detailing features suggestive of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides and an overlap with systemic lupus erythematosus.

This study identified a new dermoscopic feature, plexiform erythema, in lichen planopilaris lesions, suggesting it may indicate active disease and the potential need for more aggressive treatment.

In this study, the PLP2 gene was found to promote secondary hair follicle development in Liaoning cashmere goats, with its expression negatively regulated by melatonin and potentially affecting follicle development via the BMP pathway.

This study found that individuals with homozygous loss-of-function mutations in PLAAT3 experience a novel type of partial lipodystrophy linked to defects in white adipose tissue differentiation and function.

In this study, pioglitazone treatment in patients with lichen planopilaris showed limited success, with significant improvement seen in only a minority of cases.

This study found that frontal fibrosing alopecia had higher long-term remission rates compared to lichen planopilaris, highlighting differences in their clinical presentations and outcomes.

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.

This study documented the onset of lichen planopilaris during treatment with etanercept.

This case report highlights that dermatoscopy and histopathological analysis were crucial for accurately diagnosing Lichen Planopilaris in two patients, leading to a correct diagnosis after initial misdiagnoses.

Specific immune cells and pathways contribute to hair follicle inflammation and hair loss, suggesting potential treatments for lichen planopilaris.

New hair loss subtype found, mimics common baldness.

This study reviewed 41 cases of lichen planus pigmentosus in patients from southeastern Tunisia, highlighting its prevalence among older individuals and notable differences compared to patterns observed in an Indian cohort.

Most men with lichen planopilaris had it confirmed by biopsy and often had thyroid issues, sexual dysfunction, or prostate cancer, hinting at a link with hormonal problems.

This study reviewed 40 patients with scalp symptoms and identified a new variant of diffuse lichen planopilaris in 20 individuals, suggesting these conditions should be considered in similar cases.

This case study reports the first known instance of lichen planopilaris being associated with multiple autoimmune syndrome in a woman with hypothyroidism and Crohn's disease.

This study found that lichen planopilaris is associated with several environmental factors, such as stress and hair dye use, as well as thyroid disorders and genetic components.

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.

In this case study, an 80-year-old woman developed lichen planus pigmentosus inversus after receiving multiple intra-articular injections of a homeopathic preparation, suggesting a possible link, though causality remains speculative.

This study identified a novel mutation and confirmed a previous mutation in the LIPH gene in a woman with autosomal recessive woolly hair, expanding the mutation spectrum for this condition.

People with lichen planopilaris often have seborrheic dermatitis, which can delay the diagnosis of lichen planopilaris.

This meta-analysis found an increased prevalence of hypothyroidism in patients with lichen planopilaris compared to controls, though the exact relationship between the two conditions remains unclear.
