This article reports a case of linear lichen planus developing along the lines of Blaschko during intramuscular triamcinolone acetonide therapy for alopecia areata multiplex.

This study reported the first comprehensive transcriptome atlas of the extraorbital lacrimal gland in mice, identifying over 41 cell subclasses and revealing significant cell-cell communication networks, particularly among innate lymphoid cells.

This case study reported a rare occurrence of lepromatous leprosy with Lucio phenomenon in a 50-year-old Indonesian living in Malaysia, highlighting the necessity for primary care practitioners, even in non-endemic areas, to recognize this serious leprosy reaction to prevent complications and transmission.

In this study, researchers found that retinoids might improve lupus nephritis resistant to conventional treatments, but the sample size was too small for significant results, and side effects were noted.

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.

This report describes the clinical and histopathological features of lipoid proteinosis in a brother and sister with lid lesions, highlighting the importance of recognizing such lesions for diagnosis.

This study demonstrated that regular use of LactoSporin cream for 10 weeks significantly reduced wrinkles and fine lines in healthy female participants, although improvements in skin elasticity and hydration were not significantly better than placebo when measured by certain instruments.

This study validated an HPLC analytical method for evaluating fenasteride in commercial products, finding it to be sensitive, selective, and within acceptance criteria for specificity, precision, and stability, making it suitable for quality control testing.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy with argon sputter etching visualizes hair lipids at the cell membrane complex as distinctive convex structures, shedding light on their role and localization in human hair.

This source reports that a comprehensive review of LSS gene variant phenotypes enhances understanding of congenital hypotrichosis 14 and could guide more precise genetic counseling and future research into disease mechanisms and potential therapies.

In this case report, a female patient with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome and hidradenitis suppurativa showed significant improvement in symptoms, including hair loss and lesions, after six months of treatment with tofacitinib, with no recurrence or adverse effects over a two-year follow-up.

This study found that LSD1 is crucial for embryonic skin barrier formation in mice, revealing its significant role in epidermal development and suggesting its potential as a target in skin diseases with barrier defects.

This pilot study found that an 8-week treatment with a hyaluronic acid and hydrogen peroxide gel improved folliculitis symptoms and patient satisfaction, supporting its potential use in dermatologic practice and future trials.

This study evaluated a conditioner made from herbal ingredients like liquorice and flaxseed extracts, finding it potentially effective and safe for enhancing hair smoothness and moisture while offering an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic options.

This review details the diverse catalytic activities of abzymes in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and reports no new experimental findings; it discusses the impact of these abzymes on disease pathogenesis.

This study found that using 369LAB Lipid Bond, derived from plant oil triglycerides, can restore lipid content in damaged hair to natural levels and improve hair strength, integrity, and resilience after a single application, with benefits persisting even after discontinuation.

This study developed a method using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MRM-IDA-EPI) for the rapid and sensitive detection of 13 JAK inhibitors in anti-alopecia cosmetics, showing excellent separation and accurate quantification with high recovery rates in tested matrices.

This study reviewed cases of Graham–Little-Piccardi–Lassueur syndrome and found that topical treatments were generally ineffective, while systemic therapies like prednisone, hydroxychloroquine, and isotretinoin led to partial hair regrowth and disease stabilization, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and systemic therapy to improve outcomes.

This study found that cathepsin L deficiency in mice led to significant abnormalities in hair follicle development and cycling, including disrupted hair shaft outgrowth and premature hair growth phase entry.

This study found that simultaneous presence of specific and nonspecific skin lesions, or having three or more types of skin lesions, was associated with increased systemic activity of systemic lupus erythematosus.

This study found that lichen planopilaris is associated with three core molecular pathways, which may inform new therapeutic strategies for scarring alopecia, including unique pathways like ABC transporters specific to LPP.

This study developed and validated a sensitive HPLC–MS/MS method for detecting seven prohibited substances in cosmetic products.

This study found that Fructus Ligustri Lucidi water extract significantly increased proliferation in human hair dermal papilla cells, potentially promoting hair growth by activating ERK and Akt pathways.

This article reviews clinical and histopathological aspects of cutaneous lupus erythematosus and its treatment, emphasizing the importance of photoprotection and outlining current therapies, but reports no new experimental results.

The researchers reported a case where treatment with tofacitinib improved both hair loss and skin lesions in a patient with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome and hidradenitis suppurativa over six months, with no recurrence or adverse events during two-year follow-up.

This study suggests that the cell membrane complex in hair cuticles contains hydrophilic regions with disulfide bonds allowing polymer uptake and hydrophobic lamella-like lipid layers.

This study found that a medicinal herbal complex extract increased hair growth and cell proliferation in vitro and in C57BL/6 mice, suggesting it could be useful for enhancing hair growth.
