Lichen planopilaris may be linked to autoimmune thyroiditis.

This study found that trichoscopy is a valid and sensitive tool for diagnosing and evaluating eyebrow involvement in lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia.

This case report highlights that tumid lupus erythematosus should be considered in the differential diagnosis of annular scalp lesions with non-scarring alopecia, emphasizing histopathological examination for accurate diagnosis.

This case study reports that treating a female patient with facial partial unilateral lentiginosis using a 532-nm Nd:YAG fractional picosecond laser resulted in significant improvement in pigmentation without notable side effects, indicating it may be an effective and well-tolerated treatment option.

This study reports that hypotrichosis congenita in Hereford cattle is associated with a KRT71 mutation, leading to color dilution follicular dysplasia.

This report describes two cases where lichen planopilaris compromised hair follicles in both donor and recipient areas after follicular unit transplantation, emphasizing the need for a biopsy if lichen planopilaris is suspected.

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 found that the combination of lithium and zinc produced a statistically significant transcriptomic rescue across three datasets, with the strongest signal observed in a DP-enriched model, suggesting potential efficacy in targeting DP-specific pathways.

This study found that combined intense pulsed light and low-level light therapy significantly improved ocular surface outcomes and quality of life for patients with meibomian gland dysfunction and dry eye disease.

This study reports the first known case of linear lichen planopilaris following Blaschko's lines in a nonfacial region.

This study found that bimatoprost eye drops increased eyelash length, thickness, pigmentation, and the number of eyelashes per follicle in rabbits, without causing inflammation.

This study reports two cases where lichen planus developed only in depigmented areas of vitiligo, supporting possible theories of trauma or photodamage triggering this occurrence.

In this case report, purpura was associated with lithium treatment at therapeutic levels, highlighting the importance of monitoring for symptoms of intoxication even when lithium concentrations appear normal.

This study found no significant association between metabolic syndrome and lichen planus, but hypertension, triglycerides, and low HDLC levels were significantly associated with lichen planus.

This case report highlights the complexity of lupus erythematosus/lichen planus overlap syndrome, noting a high potential for progression to systemic lupus erythematosus.

This study suggests that systemic exposure to black eyeliner pigment may occur, potentially leading to permanent eyelash loss following the procedure.

This study found that low-level laser therapy with an 830-nm wavelength most significantly stimulated hair growth in rats, compared to other wavelengths tested.

This review of low-level laser therapy for patterned hair loss found that red-spectrum light may be effective for hair growth, but larger case-controlled studies are needed to further support this conclusion.

This study observed that in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia, treatments with LTF, 5% minoxidil, and LTF-DPC-EXO significantly promoted hair regeneration compared to the model group, potentially through modulation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

This study observed that PRP treatment resulted in greater improvement in hair thickness and density in alopecia areata patients compared to LLLT, with benefits sustained over 12 weeks.

This case report presents a rare instance of coexistent tumid lupus erythematosus and systemic lupus erythematosus in a patient, with symptom improvement noted after hydroxychloroquine treatment.

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 found that in mouse melanocytes, the cytoplasmic dynein complex component Dynlt3 is necessary for proper melanosome transport, acidity regulation, and effective transfer to keratinocytes, linking it to skin pigmentation processes.

In this case series, researchers observed a rare presentation of lichen planopilaris confined to the face in six patients, with dermoscopic and histopathological profiles indicating scarring alopecia and pigment changes, and suggested that shaving and mustard oil use might trigger the condition.

This retrospective review found that while intralesional corticosteroids provided symptomatic improvement for lichen planopilaris, hydroxychloroquine with topical corticosteroids led to higher remission rates but did not result in visible hair regrowth.

This case report suggests that exosome therapy may offer a promising alternative treatment for lichen planopilaris, showing potential benefits in hair regrowth, reduced inflammation, and improved scalp condition, but further studies are needed to confirm long-term efficacy and safety.

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 suggests that reversible hypopigmentation in homocystinuric patients may result from tyrosinase inhibition by homocyst(e)ine, with in-vitro experiments showing copper sulfate reversing this inhibition.
