This study observed that administering 1000 mg/kg of LSFP significantly reduced serum FSH and LH levels and testicular index in male Wistar rats, while lower doses showed no such effect.

The researchers reported two brothers with a new variant of X-linked trichothiodystrophy associated with an RNF113A gene mutation, highlighting features such as intellectual disability and growth failure, but without previously reported endocrinological or genital abnormalities, underlining the importance of genetic counseling for such variants.

This study describes a novel hairless mutant rat strain, F344-Hr(krh), developed via ENU mutagenesis, which provides a model for skin disease and potentially focal glomerulosclerosis due to specific genetic mutations.

This study found that Black patients with discoid lupus erythematosus had significantly worse CLASI damage scores and higher odds for dyspigmentation, scalp involvement, and scarring alopecia compared to non-Black patients.

This article reviews historical uses of the term "lupus" for various skin disorders but provides no new clinical findings.

LLLT is a safe, promising hair loss treatment, but more research needed.

In this study, researchers identified a rare form of hereditary hypotrichosis linked to mutations in the LSS gene, which affects cholesterol biosynthesis and is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.

This study identified that in Japanese patients with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, the c.736T > A LIPH mutation is associated with a mild phenotype, while the c.742C > A mutation may lead to severe baldness.

This review discusses the role of LPA(3) in embryo implantation and its genetic connection with prostaglandin signaling, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, LC-OCT imaging was found to noninvasively identify specific features of cicatricial alopecia due to lupus erythematosus, such as hyperreflective collagen fibers, which may aid in distinguishing it from other types of scarring alopecia.

This article narrates the author's personal journey with systemic lupus erythematosus over 15 years, highlighting the challenges and strategies for managing this complex disease and maintaining quality of life.

The review concluded that better studies are needed to prove if Low-Level Laser Therapy devices for hair growth really work.

This study observed that class IV diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis was the most common form of lupus nephritis among the children studied, with remission achieved in a significant portion after treatment.

In this case report, a 19-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus experienced significant improvement in neuropsychiatric symptoms, including psychosis and seizures, following treatment with high-dose corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, and antidepressants.

This study observed that adolescents with alopecia areata receiving ritlecitinib 50 mg daily showed notable hair regrowth over three years, as seen in both clinician- and patient-reported outcomes. However, the decreased number of participants at later stages limits the findings.

This study identified a novel mutation and confirmed a previous mutation in the LIPH gene in a woman with autosomal recessive woolly hair, expanding the mutation spectrum for this condition.

This case report describes a 17-year-old female patient diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus, presenting with arthralgia, hair loss, and Raynaud's phenomenon. The diagnosis was supported by elevated ESR and positive autoantibodies, and treatment included hydroxychloroquine and prednisone.

The researchers reported that Lrig1 overexpression was observed in 100% of sebaceous carcinoma cases, suggesting it may serve as a potential marker for poorly differentiated sebaceous carcinoma.

This study reported that Rapp-Hodgkin syndrome, AEC syndrome, and EEC syndrome are likely part of a single genetic disorder spectrum linked to mutations in the TP63 gene.

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.

In this study, single nucleotide polymorphisms in the RAB5B gene were linked to an increased risk of polycystic ovary syndrome and associated with specific microRNA binding sites.

This case report details a 38-year-old woman in Sri Lanka diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus-associated protein-losing enteropathy, identified through hypoalbuminemia and EULAR criteria in a resource-limited setting.

In this study, researchers observed that inhibiting myosin light chain kinase in hair cells reduced stiffness and oscillation in bullfrog hair bundles and increased hearing thresholds in mice.

This study suggests that topical minoxidil may be a promising treatment for isolated autosomal recessive woolly hair due to LIPH mutations, although effective treatments are not yet established.

INTASYL is a promising, adaptable RNAi technology for treating skin cancers.

In this study, researchers found that the SLICK1 allele in cattle may alter local immune regulation, hair growth, and tissue remodeling, as indicated by differential gene expression pathways associated with immune and inflammatory responses in slick vs. nonslick Holsteins.
