This article discusses the efficacy and safety of mycophenolate mofetil and hydroxychloroquine for treating lichen planopilaris and reports no new clinical results.

This study presents a validated questionnaire, the FFA-QLI, which effectively assesses and differentiates the quality of life impact among patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, showing greater sensitivity in identifying severe cases than the DLQI.

In this study, intradermal injections of autologous platelet-rich fibrin matrix significantly increased hair density in patients with androgenetic alopecia at 2 and 3 months after initial treatment.

This study observed that beef cattle with certain prolactin receptor gene mutations, known as slick mutations, demonstrated improved post-weaning growth and temperature regulation in a hot, humid climate compared to other genotypes, suggesting genotype influences growth efficiency and heat tolerance.

This case report describes a 29-year-old man with a year-long non-itchy skin eruption and hair loss, with distinct papules and plaques across his scalp, beard, body, and suprapubic regions, but no systemic symptoms or family history of autoimmune disease.

This review discusses the characteristic trichoscopy patterns useful in differentiating lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia from similar conditions but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that activating liver X receptors with an agonist reduced skin fibrosis in experimental models, particularly in inflammation-driven conditions, by inhibiting macrophage infiltration and interleukin-6 release.

This study found that activating Toll-like receptor 3 in periodontal ligament stem cells enhanced their stem cell and immunosuppressive properties, potentially supporting effective periodontal tissue regeneration.

This study describes a case of cyclic thrombocytopenia where a novel MPL gene mutation may contribute to the disease, with gene expression changes in platelet and neutrophil genes preceding platelet count fluctuations.

This article discusses the causes and treatment options for lichen planopilaris, a scarring hair loss condition, but reports no new clinical findings.

This article introduces the Follicular Unit Excision-Linear Ellipse (FUE-LE) technique, which integrates both FUE and the linear ellipse method for optimal hair restoration, but presents no new clinical results.

This study found that chemical lumbar sympathectomy with 5% phenol effectively treated idiopathic livedo reticularis in most patients, offering a potential long-lasting solution with repeatable efficacy upon recurrence.

This study suggests that allergens like linalool found in personal care products may contribute to the pathobiology of frontal fibrosing alopecia by affecting immune responses and stem cell function in hair follicles.

This review discusses treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planopilaris, noting that systemic 5-alpha reductase inhibitors are most effective for stabilization and potential hair regrowth, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report documents the first instance of frontal fibrosing alopecia where lichen planopilaris developed at wig attachment sites, suggesting wigs may trigger the Koebner phenomenon in affected patients.

Elevated luteinizing hormone contributes to female-pattern hair loss, and blocking certain channels may help prevent it.

In this study, researchers found that disrupting the PRL gene in mice led to earlier hair molting, especially in females, suggesting that PRL inhibits murine hair cycle events.

This review examines experimental and clinical evidence on PDRN, a drug derived from salmon DNA that acts via the adenosine A2A receptor and shows promise for tissue repair and treatment of diabetic foot ulcers in regenerative medicine.

This research letter discusses the use of Janus kinase inhibitors for treating lichen planopilaris, although specific results or conclusions from the study are not provided.

In this study, FLI was significantly higher in women with PCOS and NAFLD compared to those without NAFLD, and an FLI < 30 could not effectively rule out NAFLD in lean PCOS patients.

This study found that using layer-by-layer encapsulation techniques on dermal papilla cells can support their function and may help treat hair loss when used in conjunction with freshly isolated epidermal cells.

This review discusses the historical development of platelet-rich fibrin from fibrin glue to platelet-enriched formulations and reports no new clinical results.

This bibliometric analysis revealed important studies on LPP, noted essential trichoscopic features, and identified significant evidence gaps. The researchers emphasized a need for more robust and diverse studies to improve diagnostics and treatment strategies.

This study demonstrated that finasteride-loaded PLGA microspheres created using a novel microfluidic device exhibit extended drug release in beagle dogs, with modifications allowing for release up to 3 months.

This study introduced rPanglaoDB, an R package that facilitates the integration of public scRNA-seq datasets to effectively characterize rare cell types, exemplified by generating the first unbiased transcriptome profile of fibrocytes.

In this study, PRPF treatment was more effective than PRP alone in improving hair count and hair quality in androgenetic alopecia patients, with PRPF showing significant improvements in various hair growth parameters and having no statistical differences observed in the placebo group.

This study described a case where lupus erythematosus panniculitis preceded the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting the need for regular follow-ups in LEP patients for potential SLE development.

This article reports no new research findings and corrects the affiliation for Dr. Shao-Wen Li in a previous publication.

A feedback loop between LRH and RSL4 controls root hair growth in Arabidopsis.

This letter discusses three plasmacytoid dendritic cell-related parameters that may help differentiate lupus alopecia from lichen planopilaris, but it reports no new study results.
