Lichen planus is a fairly common skin rash that is thought to be triggered by the immune system. Exactly why the immune response occurs is not known. There may be several contributing factors, and each case is different. Potential causes include viral infections, an allergen, or even stress or genetics. Sometimes lichen planus occurs along with autoimmune disorders. Lichen planus can occur in anyone at any age, but there are certain factors that make some people more likely to develop the condition. The skin form of lichen planus occurs in men and women equally, but women are twice as likely to get the oral form Other risk factors include having other family members with lichen planus, having a viral disease like hepatitis C, or being exposed to certain chemicals that may act as allergens. Lichen planus has been described as an autoimmune disease, a dermatitis, a papulosquamous disorder, a mucocutaneous disease, and an inflammatory disease. Lichen planus lesions are so called because of their "lichen-like" appearance^[8] and can be classified by the site they involve, or by their morphology.

Lichen planus (LP) is an autoimmune disease produced by T lymphocyte attack on basal epithelial cells. LP can undergo malignant transformation that may be linked to an increased proliferative activity and decreased apoptosis rate of the epithelial cells, phenomena that may be influenced by the inflammatory infiltrate. The objectives of this study were to assess the quantitative importance of apoptosis in the inflammatory infiltrate of OLP and to discuss its influence on the persistence of this infiltrate and on the malignant transformation of this disease.  The methodological issues raised by the epidemiologic literature as well as those to be considered for future studies of oral mucosal conditions are presented. Emphasis is placed on study population selection, diagnostic criteria development, type and training of examiners, risk factor assessment and issues related to data collection, analysis and reporting.

Market Analysis:

The global dermatology markets reached $15.8 billion in 2012. The market is expected to reach $16.1 billion in 2013 and $18.5 billion in 2018 for a CAGR of 2.8%.Analyses of global market trends, with data from 2011 and 2012, estimates for 2013, and projections of compound annual growth rates (CAGRs) through 2018 .Focused coverage of four major categories of skin disease of exceptional medical and commercial significance: dermatitis (allergic and contact), cancers (including melanoma), immune disorders (including psoriasis), and infections (bacterial, fungal and viral). SLE affects UK females far more than males at a ratio of 7:1. In other words, females are seven times more likely to have the disease. The estimated number of UK females with SLE is 21,900, and the number of UK males with lupus is 3000—a total of 24,700, or 0.041% of the population. SLE is more common amongst certain ethnic groups than others, especially those of African origin.
