This case report highlights a female patient with familial partial lipodystrophy who showed significant improvement in liver stiffness after starting leptin replacement therapy.

This study reported that diffuse lichen planopilaris significantly impairs quality of life in Moroccan patients, with trichodynia and hair quality changes most affecting daily functioning and leisure activities.

This systematic review suggests that platelet-rich plasma may significantly improve symptoms in oral lichen planus with effects comparable to corticosteroids, although more research is needed to confirm these findings.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that treating platelet rich plasma with microsecond pulsed electric fields effectively activates platelets and induces similar or higher growth factor release compared to traditional bovine thrombin, suggesting a potential clinical use that may be more cost-effective and practical.

This case report suggests that platelet-rich plasma and hair transplantation may trigger or worsen the progression of cutaneous pseudolymphoma to lymphoma, particularly in patients with a family history.

In this case study, a patient with moderate papulopustular acne showed improvement in acne scars and active lesions after three monthly treatments with autologous plasma-rich growth factors, which help regulate inflammation, inhibit bacterial growth, and restore collagen.

Mycophenolate mofetil may improve symptoms and stop hair loss in Lichen planopilaris, but more research is needed.

This study reports the first known case of oral lichen planus preceding lichen planopilaris in a patient, highlighting a possible sequential relationship between the conditions.

This study found that both finasteride and low level laser therapy were similarly effective in improving hair regrowth for frontal pattern hair loss in men and women over a 3-month period.

This case report suggests that a proactive physical therapy model can be effective for improving physical function and meeting exercise guidelines in patients newly diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus.

In this study, the combination of Poly-D,L-Lactic Acid and Platelet-Rich Plasma was reported to be effective for improving wrinkle severity and skin brightness in a 45-year-old woman.

This study found that female pattern hair loss significantly reduces quality of life, particularly among younger patients, those with longer disease duration, and individuals with diagnosed mental health issues.

This case study reports that a 35-year-old woman developed nonscarring alopecia following the cosmetic use of poly-L-lactic acid on her face and hairline.

The authors concluded that controlling voltage, pulse width, and calcium concentration in pulse electric field-activated platelet-rich plasma enhances the release of growth factors and serotonin without causing clot formation, suggesting potential clinical advantages over bovine thrombin-activated PRP.

This letter argues that cicatricial pattern hair loss likely represents end-stage androgenetic alopecia and not a variant of lichen planopilaris, as previously suggested.

Two main types of fibroblasts with unique functions and additional subtypes were identified in human skin.

This study found that combining plasma rich in growth factors with conventional treatment significantly improved hair regrowth and reduced symptoms in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia compared to conventional treatment alone.

This study found that the L457(3.43)R mutation in the human luteinizing hormone receptor increases phosphodiesterase activity, reducing hormonal response despite elevated basal cAMP levels.

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 case report details two patients with Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome who showed marked skin lesion improvement with corticosteroid treatment, though cicatricial scalp alopecia remained unresponsive.

This study found that FGF signaling is necessary for the initiation of feather placode development in chicken embryos, with FGF10 being implicated as an early dermal signal in the process.

Patients with Lichen Planopilaris are more likely to have rosacea and skin cancer but less likely to have congestive heart failure, stroke, and glaucoma.

This chapter reviews the clinical evidence of adding platelet-rich plasma to lipofilling for tissue regeneration, with suggestions of benefits in skin rejuvenation and wound healing, but lacks well-designed trials.

This study found that both 5-ALA and Photofrin can effectively destroy human microvascular endothelial cells in vitro and cause tissue necrosis in vivo, with Photofrin showing greater efficacy at lower concentrations or power densities.

This study reviewed 41 cases of lichen planus pigmentosus in patients from southeastern Tunisia, highlighting its prevalence among older individuals and notable differences compared to patterns observed in an Indian cohort.

In this case report, a rare instance of Graham–Little–Piccardi–Lassueur syndrome coexisting with linear lichen planus was identified in a 35-year-old male, highlighting the condition's rarity in males, with dermoscopy aiding diagnosis through distinctive scalp and trunk lesion features.

This review examines the use of platelet rich fibrin for treating post-acne scars and reports no new clinical results; it highlights that fibrin's matrix enables a prolonged release of growth factors.

This case report describes a rare occurrence of lichen planopilaris on the face in a 45-year-old man, contributing to the limited existing cases in the literature.

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.

No treatment showed clear superiority for lichen planopilaris.
