research Vitiligo: A comprehensive overview
Vitiligo is a skin condition causing white spots, more common in women, often starts before age 20, and can affect mental health.
research Alopecia areata profiling shows TH1, TH2, and IL-23 cytokine activation without parallel TH17/TH22 skewing
Alopecia areata involves immune activation in the scalp, suggesting treatments targeting TH1, TH2, and IL-23 pathways.
research What’s Sex Got to Do With COVID-19? Gender-Based Differences in the Host Immune Response to Coronaviruses
Men generally have more severe COVID-19 cases and higher death rates than women due to biological differences.
research Local heroes or villains: tissue-resident memory T cells in human health and disease
Tissue-resident memory T cells can protect against infections and cancer but may also contribute to autoimmune diseases.
research Imbalance of T‐helper 17 and regulatory T cells in patients with alopecia areata
People with alopecia areata have more Th17 cells and fewer Treg cells, which may be key to the condition's development.
research The role of lymphocytes in the development and treatment of alopecia areata
Lymphocytes, especially CD8+ T cells, play a key role in causing alopecia areata, and targeting them may lead to new treatments.
research Transient Efficacy of Tofacitinib in Alopecia Areata Universalis
Tofacitinib temporarily regrew hair in a man with alopecia, but its effects didn't last.
research Thyroid diseases and skin autoimmunity
Thyroid diseases may contribute to autoimmune skin diseases, and more research is needed on their relationship.
research The Genetics of Human Skin Disease
Genetic research has advanced our understanding of skin diseases, but complex conditions require an integrative approach for deeper insight.
research Integrative analysis of rare copy number variants and gene expression data in alopecia areata implicates an aetiological role for autophagy
The research suggests that autophagy-related genes might play a role in causing alopecia areata.
research Urticaria Neonatorum: Accumulation of tryptase‐expressing mast cells in the skin lesions of newborns with Erythema Toxicum
Newborns with the common rash Erythema Toxicum have many active mast cells in their skin, but these cells don't produce the LL-37 peptide.
research Alopecia in general medicine
The document concludes that diagnosing and treating hair loss is complex and requires understanding its psychological effects and underlying causes, while also calling for more research and new treatments.
research A functional polymorphism in interleukin-1α (IL1A) gene is associated with risk of alopecia areata in Chinese populations
A certain genetic variation in the IL1A gene may lower the risk of a hair loss condition in Chinese people.
research Aberrant inflammasome activation as a driving force of human autoimmune skin disease
Faulty inflammasome activation may lead to autoimmune skin diseases and could be a target for new treatments.
research Regulation of the innate immune response in rheumatoid arthritis
More research is needed to understand and manage rheumatoid arthritis better.
research Alopecia Areata
Understanding the immune-related causes of Alopecia Areata has led to potential treatments like JAK inhibitors.
research Genetics of Vitiligo: A Review
Vitiligo is influenced by genetics and environment, and combining these factors can improve early detection and prevention.
research Th1 effector CD4 T cells rely on IFN-γ production to induce alopecia areata
CD4 T cells need IFN-γ to cause hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Type-2 immunity associated with type-1 related skin inflammatory diseases: friend or foe?
Type-2 immunity may influence skin diseases and could be targeted for treatment.
research Fibroblast heterogeneity and functions: insights from single-cell sequencing in wound healing, breast cancer, ovarian cancer and melanoma
Different types of fibroblasts play specific roles in wound healing and cancer, which could help improve treatments.
research AP-2α/AP-2β transcription factors are key regulators of epidermal homeostasis
AP-2α and AP-2β proteins are essential for healthy adult skin and hair.
research The Role of Vimentin in Tissue Repair and Cell Growth
Vimentin is crucial for wound healing, cell growth, and managing immune responses.
research Use of Contact Immunotherapy in the Treatment of Skin Diseases Other than Alopecia Areata
Contact immunotherapy might help treat various skin conditions, but more research is needed to confirm its safety and effectiveness.
research Regenerative Medicine of Epidermal Structures
New treatments for skin and hair repair show promise, but further improvements are needed.
research Update on the Genetics of Androgenetic Alopecia, Female Pattern Hair Loss, and Alopecia Areata: Implications for Molecular Diagnostic Testing
Genetic factors affect hair loss, and molecular testing may help predict, diagnose, and treat it.
research Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss with no cure and treatments that often don't work well.
research Epidemiology and burden of alopecia areata: a systematic review
Alopecia areata is a common autoimmune disease affecting about 2% of people, causing significant disability and often associated with mental health issues and other autoimmune conditions.
research A Practical Approach to the Diagnosis and Management of Hair Loss in Children and Adolescents
Early and personalized treatment for hair loss in young people is crucial to prevent permanent damage and should include psychological support.
research Correlation between serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor level and depression severity in alopecia areata patients
