research Cutaneous necrosis after injection of polyethylene glycol–modified interferon alfa
Some patients receiving pegylated interferon alfa injections developed skin necrosis, requiring treatment adjustments or discontinuation.
research Androgen receptor transactivity is potentiated by TGF-β1 through Smad3 but checked by its coactivator Hic-5/ARA55 in balding dermal papilla cells
TGF-β1 increases androgen receptor activity in hair loss, but Hic-5/ARA55 can counter this effect.
research Progeny of Lgr5-expressing hair follicle stem cell contributes to papillomavirus-induced tumor development in epidermis
research Author response: Neutrophils promote CXCR3-dependent itch in the development of atopic dermatitis
Neutrophils are important for causing chronic itch in atopic dermatitis, and blocking the CXCR3 receptor may reduce this itch.
research Humanized CXCL12 antibody delays onset and modulates immune response in alopecia areata mice: insights from single-cell RNA sequencing
A humanized CXCL12 antibody may delay and treat alopecia areata by altering the immune response.
research Hyperpigmentation in a child as a clue to chikungunya
Chikungunya can cause hyperpigmentation in children and should be considered in diagnosis.
research Amelanocytic Anhidrotic Alopecia Areata-like Phenotype After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplant
The immune system can cause permanent skin and hair whitening by attacking pigment cells.
research Il-10 family members as novel responders to genotoxic stress
IL-19 and IL-24 help cells respond to DNA damage and could be targeted for cancer and age-related disease treatments.
research Resistance of Transplanted Hair Follicles to the Onslaught of Diffuse Alopecia Areata
Transplanted hair follicles can resist hair loss from an autoimmune condition better than natural hair.
research Androgen receptor signaling as a new target for intervention in acute myeloid leukemia
Targeting androgen receptor signaling may improve acute myeloid leukemia treatment.
research Viral-associated trichodysplasia in patients who are immunocompromised
Immunocompromised patients can develop skin and hair issues due to a virus.
research Adrenal 21-hydroxylase gene mutations in Slovenian hyperandrogenic women: evaluation of corticotrophin stimulation and HLA polymorphisms in screening for carrier status
The study concluded that testing hormone levels after stimulation is not reliable for identifying carriers of 21-hydroxylase deficiency; genetic testing is necessary.
research BH14 Multiple sclerosis and alopecia areata: drug-induced alopecia areata or coexisting autoimmune phenomena?
Some multiple sclerosis treatments may trigger hair loss conditions like alopecia areata.
research Clinical and Molecular Diagnostic Criteria of Congenital Atrichia with Papular Lesions11This paper originally appeared in issue 117:1662–1665, 2001. Following publication the authors indicated that important corrections at page proof were not taken in. To ensure that the paper is published as intended, the editors have decided to reproduce the contents in full.
Congenital atrichia with papular lesions is often misdiagnosed, and new diagnostic criteria can improve accuracy.
research 15460 Perifollicular pink halo: A potential dermoscopic marker of inflammation in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
Certain immune markers may predict chemotherapy response in mesothelioma, and nivolumab is a tolerable and effective treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
research Abstract 5561: 20(S)-Protopanaxadiol-aglycone downregulates full-length and ligand-independent splice variants of androgen receptor
20(S)-Protopanaxadiol-aglycone may help prevent and treat prostate cancer by reducing androgen receptor activity.
research Detection of Serum Levels of Interleukins-17, 21, 6 and Tumor Necrosis Factor-α in Patients with Patchy Alopecia Areata and Their Association with Disease Severity
Higher levels of certain proteins in the blood are linked to more severe patchy alopecia areata.
research Modulation of Androgen Receptor Transcriptional Activity
Androgen receptor activity is influenced by hormones, co-factors, modifications, and mutations.
research Alopecia areata as another immune‐mediated disease developed in patients treated with tumour necrosis factor‐α blocker agents
Anti-TNF-α therapy may increase the risk of developing alopecia areata, especially in those with a history of autoimmune disease.
research Canine and Feline Cutaneous Lymphocytosis: Reactive Process or Indolent Neoplastic Disease?
Cats likely have a reactive skin condition, while dogs may have a more complex, possibly cancerous one.
research Virtual Screening of Potential Inhibitors for SARS-CoV-2 Main Protease
The document concluded that certain compounds might strongly bind to and potentially inhibit a key SARS-CoV-2 protein, but further testing is needed.
research 058 The pattern of Fas and Fas ligand expression in alopecia areata
The Fas/FasL pathway may play a role in alopecia areata.
research Genetic Polymorphisms of Immunity Regulatory Genes and Alopecia Areata Susceptibility in Jordanian Patients
CLEC4D gene variants may increase the risk of alopecia areata in Jordanians.

Allergens might contribute to CCCA, so avoiding them could help manage the condition.
research Self-Amplifying RNA Approach for Protein Replacement Therapy
Self-amplifying RNA could be a better option for protein replacement therapy with lower doses and lasting effects, but delivering it into cells is still challenging.
research [Selective changes in lymphocytic differentiation antigens in the peripheral blood of patients with alopecia areata treated with oral zinc].
