This study reported that lichen planopilaris predominantly affects females over 60, with a registered prevalence rate of 0.02581%, and is often associated with autoimmune diseases like systemic lupus erythematosus, suggesting a need for further research to enhance treatment approaches.

This article reviews the roles of lesser-known secreted phospholipase A2 isoforms in various biological processes, such as immune suppression, metabolic regulation, epidermal hyperplasia, and male reproduction, without reporting new clinical findings.

This case report identifies an adolescent with symptoms indicative of Dunnigan-type partial lipodystrophy, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis to manage associated metabolic complications and improve self-esteem.

The laser therapy device effectively increased hair growth in people with androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that Secretory Phospholipase A2-IIA (sPLA2-IIA) promotes proliferation through JNK/c-Jun signaling, distinctively affecting normal stem cells and cancer cells, suggesting it as a potential target for cancer treatment.

Recognizing IPPP is crucial to prevent misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatments.

This study suggests that sirolimus and propranolol may reduce abnormal lymphatic endothelial cell proliferation in lymphatic malformations, potentially improving vessel function and patient outcomes.

In this study, researchers suggested that adipose-derived exosomes could be a promising treatment option for lichen planopilaris, particularly in cases resistant to standard therapies, by potentially aiding in symptom management and hair preservation.

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 study found that higher Lnk expression in PCOS patients may contribute to insulin resistance by inhibiting insulin signaling pathways.

This study found that lysophosphatidic acid increases mesenchymal stem cell proliferation and migration through signaling pathways and reactive oxygen species, implicating potential applications in stem cell expansion.

In this case report, a 4-year-old Indian girl with linear and annular lupus panniculitis of the scalp achieved complete remission and hair regrowth with oral corticosteroids, showing no relapse after 6 months of follow-up.

This study observed that some patients with homozygous c.736T>A mutation in LIPH may have mild hypotrichosis with long hairs in adulthood.

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

In this case report, narrowband-UVB phototherapy successfully treated a rare instance of Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, a variant of lichen planopilaris, as investigated through non-invasive imaging techniques.

This study discusses clinical cases of Lichen Planopilaris in men that were initially misdiagnosed and inadequately treated, resulting in significant irreversible hair loss.

The researchers reported that the facial Psoriasis Log-based Area and Severity Index (fPLASI) more reliably and sensitively captured clinical improvement in facial psoriasis than the existing facial Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (fPASI).

This study found that Polycomb repressive complex 1 is crucial for skin development and stem cell specification, influencing gene activity beyond its known repressor functions.

This study found that in a mouse model of Focal Dermal Hypoplasia, treatment with lithium carbonate improved skin disease symptoms compared to controls, though disease severity varied and posed interpretation challenges.

This review discusses the various applications of lyophilized platelet-rich plasma in treating different diseases and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, deletion of ROBO4 in mice ameliorated hair loss caused by elevated PAF levels, suggesting potential interplay with VLDLR-related pathways.

This case series reports that home use of intense pulsed light devices may effectively reduce hair burden and prevent recurrence of pilonidal disease in patients unable to regularly attend clinic sessions.

This article discusses the use of PRP and long-acting PRP for treating Female Pattern Hair Loss, emphasizing their potential benefits, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the orphan protein Plet-1 is expressed in specific keratinocytes of mouse hair follicles and may regulate keratinocyte interactions with inert tissues by affecting migration and adhesion.

This study concluded that leucocyte-rich PRP has a continuous stimulatory effect on human fibroblast cells, enhancing their proliferation, migration, and impacting gene expression of the extracellular matrix and adhesion molecules.

This case report describes a 38-year-old male with scarring body hair loss as the sole manifestation of lichen planopilaris, characterized by progressive alopecia and preceding itching.

This study identified a new subtype of lichen planopilaris that mimics androgenetic alopecia, selectively affecting vellus hair follicles and presenting unique histopathological features.

This case report in a child suggests that lichen planus pemphigoides may represent a heterogeneous group of disorders, potentially triggered by conditions like varicella.

This study suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction might contribute to the pathogenesis of Lichen planopilaris by triggering a metabolic shift that leads to chronic inflammation and hair follicle damage.

This study concluded that allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR) is more reliable than tetra-primer ARMS-PCR for genotyping the SNP rs1998076 due to better stability and interpretability.
