Dormant melanoma cells in mice interact minimally with memory T cells due to a suppressive tumor environment.
research Perforins Expression by Cutaneous Gamma Delta T Cells
Gamma delta T cells in the skin help with healing and defense but can also cause autoimmune issues, and more research is needed to understand how they are activated.
research R hodococcus equi: Clinical Manifestations, Virulence, and Immunity
Rhodococcus equi causes severe pneumonia in young foals, and effective vaccines are needed due to foals' weak immune responses.

Both mouse and rat models are effective for testing alopecia areata treatments.
research Biology of melanocytes in mammals
Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.
research Characterisation of CD4+ stem cells of the skin and their role in skin homeostasis and tumourigenesis
CD4+ skin cells may be precursors to basal cell carcinoma.
research Uveodermatological syndrome in dogs: A review of diagnosis, management, and ophthalmic patient needs
Uveodermatological syndrome in dogs is hard to manage and can lead to blindness despite treatment.
research Scarring hair follicle destruction is driven by the collapse of EGFR-protected JAK-STAT1-sensitive stem cell immune privilege
A protein called EGFR protects hair follicle stem cells, and when it's disrupted, hair follicles can be damaged, but blocking certain pathways can restore hair growth.
research Differential impact of environmental factors on systemic and localized autoimmunity
Environmental factors like diet and vitamin levels, especially Vitamin D, can affect autoimmune diseases differently, with lifestyle changes potentially improving outcomes.
