This report describes two cases where lichen planopilaris may have compromised the hair follicles in both donor and recipient areas following follicular unit transplantation.

Reflectance confocal microscopy helped diagnose and manage a woman's hair loss without needing a biopsy.

In this study, researchers observed that rhino mice exhibit significant ductal hyperkeratinization in the meibomian gland, which may represent the first naturally occurring disorder of this gland in mice.

This review discusses the potential relationship between lichen planus pigmentosus and frontal fibrosing alopecia, presenting a case study but reporting no new clinical findings.

This study identified novel LSS mutations implicated in hypotrichosis simplex with or without neurodevelopmental abnormalities, highlighting the need for careful evaluation of synonymous mutations' potential pathogenic effects.

A new mutation in the TRPS1 gene caused Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome in a 17-year-old, highlighting the need for genetic testing.

In this case report, researchers observed that local radiation therapy to the orbits may not be sufficient to halt progression of new retinal lesions in older patients, even when the disease initially appears confined to the intraocular space.

This study identified a critical NF-κB-LHX2-TGFβ2 signaling pathway essential for primary hair follicle development in mice, revealing new insights into the underlying mechanisms of morphogenesis.

This study found that hCG decreased 5α-reductase and androgen receptor levels in skin samples from women in vitro, suggesting that human skin responds to LH/hCG treatment.

This study reports a novel LSS gene mutation in an Egyptian family with alopecia intellectual disability syndrome 4, expanding the known clinical and genetic features of the condition.

This study evaluated the use of low-level laser therapy for treating androgenic alopecia in adults, finding it a promising and safe at-home option for stimulating hair growth compared to sham devices, though further research is needed to confirm its clinical effectiveness.

This study found that Ldh activity in hair follicle stem cell-mediated squamous cell carcinoma is not necessary for tumorigenesis, as its modulation did not affect the cancer's development or characteristics.

This study describes a patient with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets (HVDRR) who, despite having a truncated vitamin D receptor, did not exhibit typical hair or skin abnormalities, suggesting possible compensation via interactions with other proteins.

In this study, the researchers reported a new case of Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome with a novel LMNA mutation and successful surgical intervention for airway obstruction.

This abstract discusses Lichen Sclerosus, a chronic skin condition affecting the genitals, highlighting its symptoms, complications, and impact on quality of life, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that the loss of a functional hr gene in mice leads to premature and abnormal hair follicle regression, disrupting normal hair cycling and architecture.

This case report highlights that lipedematous scalp and alopecia areata may coexist and that precise diagnosis requires histopathologic examination.

This study found that among adolescents with alopecia areata and significant hair loss, treatment with ritlecitinib resulted in greater hair regrowth and self-reported improvement compared to placebo over 48 weeks, with common side effects including headache, acne, and nasopharyngitis.

This study found that oral retinoid therapy may provide clinical improvement in a small percentage of patients with treatment-resistant lichen planopilaris, although it is not commonly used as a first-line treatment.

This case study reported that a 34-year-old woman with classic lichen planopilaris achieved disease remission after two months of hydroxychloroquine treatment following ineffective corticosteroid therapy.

In this study, researchers analyzed lurasidone's risk profile for treating schizophrenia and bipolar depression, identifying unlisted adverse reactions like hypersexuality, restless leg syndrome, thrombocytopenia, and telogen effluvium, which show probable or possible correlations with the drug.

This article reviews current understanding of Hutchinson–Gilford Progeria Syndrome and suggests RNA-based treatments show promise, but no new clinical findings are reported.

This study found a novel R430Q gene mutation in hHb6, which may be linked to the hereditary hair disorder monilethrix in the examined family.

This paper reports a single case of lichenoid cutaneous sarcoidosis that was unresponsive to standard treatments but showed marked improvement with the administration of oral tranilast.

In this study, 650 nm low-level red light therapy may cause a short-term transient increase in retinal fovea perfusion density in children, with no lasting effects observed at 1 hour post-treatment.

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

Two patients had a rare combination of red skin spots and white scaly skin lesions not on the genitals.

Ritlecitinib works well and is safe for treating alopecia areata.
