This research explores developing liposomal formulations to enhance the delivery of difficult-to-absorb agents directly to hair follicles and sebaceous glands, with minoxidil and plasmid DNA as study molecules.

This study found that massaging the skin significantly increases follicular penetration of liposomes in an ex vivo setting, while occlusion only enhanced penetration for rigid liposomes.

This study found that lichen planopilaris in men typically presents similarly to women, with a lower likelihood of nonscalp hair loss and a higher association with mucosal lichen planus and thyroid disease.

This study examined clinical characteristics of lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia in 24 men, revealing common scalp symptoms, frequent beard involvement, and limited association with thyroid disease.

This research reports that partial orthokeratology combined with daytime spectacle correction effectively slowed myopic progression in high myopes, with a 63% reduction in axial elongation compared to spectacle use alone.

Using high-throughput proteomics, this study identified 34 differentially expressed proteins in the lesional skin of adults with scalp psoriasis, suggesting a cytokine storm response linked to bacterial antigens.

This study demonstrates that LES-hair can detect differential protein expression in specific regions of plucked hair follicles, suggesting its potential for research and clinical applications like monitoring treatment effects in alopecia and cancer therapies.

In this study, frontal fibrosing alopecia showed a higher cumulative remission rate compared to lichen planopilaris, despite similar timeframes and relapse rates between the two conditions.

In this case study, two middle-aged patients with pruritic scalp erosions were diagnosed with localized pemphigus vulgaris, which resolved without relapse after treatment with low-dose oral prednisone and intralesional triamcinolone acetonide.

The woman was diagnosed with lichen planopilaris and can be treated with corticosteroids.

This study highlights the diverse prescribing and monitoring practices for low-dose oral minoxidil among dermatologists in the UK and Ireland, used widely for various hair loss conditions both as monotherapy and adjunctive therapy.

PLLA injections can cause hair loss and skin issues.

Lichen planus pigmentosus and fibrosing frontal alopecia in Colombia are likely different stages of the same disease.

This study found that a hair tonic formulation containing 1.5% light fraction patchouli oil demonstrated strong antifungal activity against Malassezia globosa and promoted hair growth in rabbits, suggesting potential benefits for hair care despite the need for human clinical trials to confirm safety and effectiveness.

This study found that a nanoemulsion containing perfluorooctyl bromide effectively increased oxygen levels in an anoxic environment, enhancing hair dermal papilla cell growth and significantly promoting hair organ elongation.

This study identified compound heterozygous mutations, c.1101del and c.736 T > A, in the LIPH gene responsible for causing autosomal recessive woolly hair in a child, with c.1101del being a novel frameshift mutation.

This study observed that Betamethasone oral mini-pulse therapy showed a good response in 60% of lichen planus patients, though further research is needed to confirm its efficacy.

This study found that targeting the hair follicle can be increased by using lipophilic drugs combined with surfactant solutions and propylene glycol.

This article reviews the role of LMNA gene mutations, particularly in Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome, but does not report new experimental findings.

This study found that in poodles, perifollicular changes in the hair follicle glassy membrane are not always linked to calcium deposition.

This study reviewed the potential of Lupeol, a natural triterpenoid, in promoting hair growth and reducing inflammation related to alopecia, revealing promising molecular pathways and favorable pharmacokinetics while suggesting further research to validate these findings.

This study found that lipid peroxidation products play a clear role in the pathogenesis of skin diseases like psoriasis, vitiligo, and alopecia, but their role in diseases like melanoma and atopic dermatitis remains unclear.

This study found that overexpression of sPLA2-X in mice was associated with alopecia and hair follicle abnormalities, highlighting its potential role in hair follicle homeostasis.

This report from the UK reviews the literature on post-menopausal frontal fibrosing alopecia and highlights its under-recognition and distinctive characteristics compared to lichen planopilaris, but does not provide new results.

In this study, low-level laser therapy significantly improved the mechanical strength of bone at tooth extraction sites in rats, while neither platelet-rich plasma alone nor combined with laser affected mechanical strength or calcium content.

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 study found that oral administration of naturally safe active polypeptides from marine shellfish promoted scarless dermal wound healing in mice, potentially via effects on inflammation, fibroblast activity, and the "skin-gut" axis.

Treatment with methotrexate and prednisolone led to complete hair regrowth and no relapse for 2 years.

This study reported that mycophenolate mofetil was effective in reducing signs and symptoms of active lichen planopilaris in 83% of patients who had failed multiple prior treatments.

This study found that polidioxanona threads increased hair density and satisfaction in treating various types of alopecia, with no adverse events reported, though the small sample limits broader conclusions.
