This study provides one of the first descriptions of the demographic, clinical, and therapeutic characteristics of lichen planopilaris in Chilean adults, reporting that treatment usually reduced or halted disease progression.

In this study, key histologic features such as mucinous perifollicular fibroplasia were identified to aid in the diagnosis of lichen planopilaris.

In this case study, a 6-year-old child with autosomal recessive woolly hair showed significant hair growth and sustained improvement with a 4-year combination treatment of botanical extracts, though the precise mechanisms need further research.

In this study, severe diffuse hair loss in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus was associated with distinct clinical, dermoscopic, and histopathological features, which improved alongside treatment of the underlying condition.

This study observed that a low-protein, arginine-supplemented diet improved the abnormal hair appearance in untreated patients with argininosuccinic aciduria.

In this study, researchers identified key lncRNAs and target genes potentially involved in the transformation of the hair follicle cycle, which could advance understanding of lncRNAs' roles in hair follicle development.

This study found that mice genetically modified to overexpress the serine protease inhibitor hurpin showed reduced UV-induced apoptosis but increased susceptibility to skin cancer after chemical carcinogenesis.

This study found distinct expression patterns of various transcription types during hair follicle morphogenesis, providing a foundation for understanding hair development mechanisms and aiding selective breeding for desirable wool traits in a specific breed.

This study found that the methylation level of the IGFBP4 promoter is negatively correlated with mRNA expression and may serve as an epigenetic marker for wool fineness in Super Merino sheep.

This study discusses clinical cases of Lichen Planopilaris in men that were initially misdiagnosed and inadequately treated, resulting in significant irreversible hair loss.

This study identified genes that may regulate cashmere fineness in Liaoning Cashmere Goats by analyzing skin cell types and exploring gene expression in secondary hair follicle dermal papilla cells.

This study found that immune privilege collapse in the hair follicle bulge and associated immune responses may contribute significantly to the pathogenesis of lichen planopilaris, suggesting a potential autoimmune basis for the disease.

This case report describes a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed both alopecia areata and lichen planopilaris despite immunosuppressive treatment, suggesting a shared immunopathogenesis between these disorders.

This study concluded that a sequential regimen of prednisolone and cyclophosphamide, followed by low-dose prednisolone and azathioprine, achieved favorable results in most patients with diffuse proliferative and/or membranous lupus nephritis without significant toxicities.

This study found that K33A was significantly upregulated in lustrous Magra wool follicles, while other keratin and KAP genes showed downregulation, impacting wool's physical properties like luster.

This study observed that differences in the expression of genes related to lipid metabolism may play a major role in determining wool fiber diameter in sheep.

This study observed that genetic variation in the ovine KRTAP22-1 gene is linked to increased wool yield and decreased fiber curvature in sheep, indicating its potential use in breeding programs.

Certain peptides can prevent hair loss in young rats caused by a cancer drug.

In this study, type I interferon response-related genes activated by RIG-1 and IL-17 signaling pathways were significantly up-regulated in both hair follicles and skin tissues affected by chronic discoidal lupus erythematosus.

This case report describes a rare coexistence of primary subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma and lupus panniculitis in a 20-year-old Moroccan woman, highlighting the importance of repeated biopsies for accurate diagnosis in resistant cases.

This case report describes a 39-year-old woman whose dermatomyositis-systemic lupus erythematosus overlap syndrome symptoms resolved after switching to tofacitinib.

This study developed an ultrahigh-power sonicator to improve protein extraction from hair shafts, followed by advanced proteomic analysis, identifying 239 differentially expressed proteins in fetal growth restriction cases compared to healthy controls, which were validated as potential biomarkers for perinatal diagnostics.

This meta-analysis found that deuruxolitinib significantly improved hair regrowth and patient satisfaction in those with moderate to severe alopecia areata compared to placebo, though it was associated with manageable side effects such as elevated creatinine kinase levels, headaches, and acne, especially at higher doses.

This letter to the editor provides no new results or studies on dermatological topics; it may address previous articles or observations.

This thesis found that in lupus nephritis, traditional classification criteria may not apply to patients with glomerular deposits without clinical SLE, indicating distinct prognostic and diagnostic challenges.

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.

This study provides an updated overview of non-scarring alopecia in lupus erythematosus patients, revealing that diffuse/patchy NSA and lupus hair are strongly associated with systemic activity and respond well to SLE therapy, while progression to scarring alopecia was rare.

This study found that Lespedeza cuneata aqueous extract reduced serum dihydrotestosterone levels and 5α-reductase mRNA expression in testosterone-induced prostatic hyperplasia in rats, suggesting potential as a treatment for prostatic hyperplasia.

This study found that administering lycopene to rats provided significant protection against the testicular damage caused by finasteride, as indicated by improved sperm parameters, and reduced oxidative stress and apoptosis markers.
