This study identified a specific LIPH gene mutation (736T>A) as common in Japanese patients with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, potentially indicating its role in the condition's manifestation within this population.

This study concluded that erosive lichen sclerosus is a distinct subtype marked by red patches on hairless skin, while ulcerated lichen sclerosus typically results from trauma in uncontrolled dermatosis.

LIPH mutations cause woolly hair in some Chinese people.

In this case report, a 53-year-old woman with Little-Graham-Piccardi-Lassueur-Syndrome responded well to a treatment regimen of hydroxychloroquine, methotrexate, and other therapies, effectively halting the progression of this rare dermatosis characterized by alopecia and hyperkeratotic eruptions.

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 study observed that some patients with homozygous c.736T>A mutation in LIPH may have mild hypotrichosis with long hairs in adulthood.

This study reports that a patient with rare linear lichen planopilaris experienced complete hair regrowth after 12 weeks of treatment with the antibody ixekizumab, suggesting it as a potential targeted therapy.

Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) is a useful tool for studying how drugs interact with skin and diagnosing skin disorders, despite some limitations.

This study identified a novel splice site mutation in the LIPH gene associated with autosomal recessive woolly hair, contributing to understanding the genetic basis of this condition.

This study found that Ldh activity in hair follicle stem cell-mediated squamous cell carcinoma is not necessary for tumorigenesis, as its modulation did not affect the cancer's development or characteristics.

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 case report highlights how chronic bacterial folliculitis may contribute to persistent inflammation in lichen simplex chronicus and emphasizes the value of DIF and IHC in diagnosing obscure cases.

This study found that line-field confocal optical coherence tomography effectively visualized key diagnostic features of classic lichen planopilaris in real time, suggesting its potential as a valuable diagnostic tool.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.

In this case report and literature review, researchers identified a novel mutation in the CLDN1 gene linked to neonatal ichthyosis-sclerosing cholangitis syndrome and found that its phenotype varies widely, suggesting a multidisciplinary approach is crucial for management.

This study observed that administering 1000 mg/kg of LSFP significantly reduced serum FSH and LH levels and testicular index in male Wistar rats, while lower doses showed no such effect.

In this case study from King Fahad University Hospital, an 11-month-old Saudi boy with a history of short, non-growing hair was diagnosed with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, attributed to a homozygous mutation in the LIPH gene.

This study found that in mice, LSD1 interacting with HSP90 accelerates skin wound healing by enhancing HFSC glycolytic metabolism, proliferation, and differentiation via the c-MYC/LDHA axis.

This study identified that in Japanese patients with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, the c.736T > A LIPH mutation is associated with a mild phenotype, while the c.742C > A mutation may lead to severe baldness.

This study suggests that fractional infrared technology may effectively improve cervical skin laxity by enhancing dermal thickness without adverse effects in a small pilot group.

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.

In this mouse model study, researchers found that deleting the ASH2L gene in epidermal progenitor cells led to thinner epidermal layers, delayed hair follicle development, and reduced epidermal stem cell pools, with alterations in genes related to hair follicle development and the Notch signaling pathway.

This study found that low-dose chemotherapy for solitary bone lesions of Langerhans cell histiocytosis in children led to quicker recovery, higher quality of life at 3 months, and was more cost-effective compared to surgery.

This review highlights that platelet-rich plasma and adipose-derived stem cell therapy may offer safe and promising improvements for managing symptoms of genital lichen sclerosus, with a potential synergistic benefit when combined.

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

This study introduced the Lichen Planus Activity and Damage Index (LiPADI), which effectively assesses the severity and progression of lichen planus, aligning well with other clinical indicators.

This chapter provides dermatology trainees with insights on managing lichen planopilaris, emphasizing treating active disease to prevent further hair loss and recommending a tapered course of oral steroids for disease stabilization.

This study reported that four patients with lichen planopilaris showed dramatic improvement, including symptom reduction and hair regrowth, after treatment with low-level light therapy.
