The authors reported a case of significant scalp edema accompanying lichen planopilaris in a middle-aged woman, suggesting a potential new variant of edematous scalp conditions as a reaction to scarring alopecia.

In this study, an 8-year-old girl with alopecia totalis experienced complete hair regrowth on the OMP regime after incomplete results with a previous treatment of oral betamethasone.

This study found that in lichen planopilaris, the basement membrane zone of the hair follicles exhibited disrupted and discontinuous staining patterns, potentially contributing to scarring and irreversible hair loss.

This article reviews lichen planopilaris, its presentation, and treatment challenges, and emphasizes the need for more research into its pathogenesis and therapy efficacy; it reports no new findings.

This review discusses the diverse roles of the RANKL/RANK/OPG system in bone metabolism, the immune system, and other biological processes, emphasizing its relevance in the field of osteoimmunology, but reports no new results.

This study found that laparoscopic ovarian drilling significantly improved hormone levels and menstrual irregularity, leading to increased ovulation and a pregnancy rate of 26% among women with PCOS-related infertility.

In this in silico study, researchers analyzed nonsynonymous SNPs in the LIPH gene linked to hypotrichosis and identified three potentially harmful variants (W108R, C246S, and H248N) out of 215 total, using sequence- and architecture-based bioinformatics techniques to differentiate between harmful and benign SNPs.

This study generated a transcriptomic map of human hair follicles, identifying compartment-specific gene expression profiles that can aid in developing targeted therapies for hair follicle disorders.

PP405 may help hair growth by activating hair follicle stem 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 found that intense focused skin tightening ultrasound reduced excessive underarm sweating by nearly 80% in two patients and was associated with temporary side effects like tenderness and redness.

This study found that lash ptosis was more common and severe in eyes with blepharoptosis, especially congenital, compared to normal eyes.

This study found that in early retinal neurogenesis in mice, the transcription factor Lhx2 regulates Sonic Hedgehog signaling by controlling expression of pathway genes like the co-receptors Gas1 and Cdon.

This study analyzed proteomic changes in Jiangnan cashmere goats' secondary hair follicles and found that the PLIN2 gene significantly impacts hair follicle growth cycles by affecting dermal papilla cell proliferation, offering insights into breeding strategies to enhance cashmere yield.

This study found that postmenopausal women with lichen planopilaris showed a high prevalence of androgen excess, while women with frontal fibrosing alopecia were often associated with androgen deficiency.

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 research found that liposome drug delivery systems, particularly with targeted modifications, show promise for improving effectiveness and reducing toxicity in combination cancer therapies.

This study found that the FER/MLO signaling module plays a crucial role in calcium oscillations and ROS production in root hair tip growth, with the MLO15 protein regulating these processes and restoring disrupted growth and signaling in fer mutant root hairs.

In this study, Oligonol® was shown to regulate gene expression related to cell proliferation and inflammation in human dermal papilla cells.

This review discusses Graham-Little Piccardi-Lasseur syndrome, a rare dermatosis with limited treatment options, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis through physical exam and dermoscopy, but reports no new results.

This study developed a biobased copolymer called SELP::KP, showing improved hair strength, elasticity, and conditioning properties while being a safer alternative to conventional chemical treatments, based on application to human hair in a laboratory setting.

This study found that using elastic nano-liposomes to deliver palmitoylethanolamide improved its transdermal delivery and enhanced its skincare effects, with minimal cytotoxicity and no allergic reactions observed.

This article reports a rare case of a postmenopausal woman with coexisting lichen planus pigmentosus and classic lichen planopilaris, alongside a review of related literature.

This study found that mutations in the TRPV3 gene can cause a broader range of symptoms in Olmsted syndrome than previously recognized, including severe palmoplantar keratoderma without other classic features.

This study highlights lichen planopilaris as a form of scarring hair loss with symptoms like shedding and itching, and notes successful treatment options such as topical and oral antiinflammatory medications to preserve hair follicles by early intervention.

This study found that a newly developed peptide, FOL-005, significantly inhibited hair growth and counteracted minoxidil's effects in organ-cultured human male scalp skin and mouse models, without apparent toxicity.

This study found that adding low-dose oral minoxidil to standard treatment for lichen planopilaris was safe but did not significantly improve hair density or thickness, although minor hair regrowth was observed in some scarring areas.

This study concluded that polymeric nanoparticles effectively targeted hair follicles for drug delivery, but the organogel formulation did not enhance their penetration into the hair shaft.

This study will evaluate the preferences for professional language interpretation services among patients with limited English proficiency in the otolaryngology clinic setting, aiming to improve communication and healthcare outcomes.
