A rare autoimmune disease caused the woman's scalp blisters and hair loss, successfully treated with medication.
research Plasmacytoid dendritic cells as a key player in the initiation phase of alopecia areata-induced C3H/HeJ mouse
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells, which overproduce IFN-α, may play a crucial role in starting alopecia areata, an autoimmune disease causing hair loss.
research Identification and characterization of an antisense RNA transcript (gfg) from the human basic fibroblast growth factor gene.
Researchers found an RNA transcript that might help control a growth factor linked to tumor development.
research The evaluation of IL-4 VNTR intron 3 and TNF-α (rs1799964) gene polymorphisms in Egyptian patients with alopecia areata: a case–control study
These gene variations are not linked to alopecia areata in Egyptians.
research Gene Array Profiling and Immunomodulation Studies Define a Cell-Mediated Immune Response Underlying the Pathogenesis of Alopecia Areata in a Mouse Model and Humans
Alopecia areata is caused by an immune response, and targeting immune cells might help treat it.
research Human regulatory γδT lymphocytes as novel autoimmunity-protective cells: Lessons from alopecia areata
γδTregs may help treat autoimmune diseases like alopecia areata by promoting hair regrowth and reducing immune attacks.
research 879 Molecular network of Smads and Id2 genes in hair follicle stem cells regulation
The BMP/Smads pathway and Id2 gene control hair follicle stem cells, affecting their rest and growth phases.
research Acquired immunogenicity of DNA after modification with malondialdehyde in patients with alopecia areata
Malondialdehyde-modified DNA may trigger an immune response in alopecia areata patients.
research Lower prostate cancer risk in Swedish men with the androgen receptor E213 A-allele
Swedish men with the E213 A-allele of the androgen receptor have a lower risk of prostate cancer.
research Disease causing homozygous variants in the human hairless gene
New and known mutations in the hairless gene cause a hair loss condition called Atrichia with papular lesions.
research 0034 Cross-species insights into hair follicle-T cell interactions in discoid lupus erythematosus: A comparison of human, canine and mouse models using spatial transcriptomics
Discoid lupus erythematosus involves immune activation and fibrosis around hair follicles, with shared pathways across humans, dogs, and mice, suggesting potential treatments for both humans and animals.
research 588 Skin fibroblast heterogeneity and plasticity are determined by the local niche
Mouse skin fibroblasts vary in function and adaptability based on their environment.
research 1361 A novel cell surface marker for hair follicle dermal cells throughout hair morphogenesis and cycling
Researchers found that the Leptin receptor is a consistent marker for hair follicle dermal cells, which may help future hair research.
research Spreading of Isolated Ptch Mutant Basal Cell Carcinoma Precursors Is Physiologically Suppressed and Counteracts Tumor Formation in Mice
External factors can cause skin cancer cells that usually don't spread to grow and form tumors in mice.
research Membranous nephropathy and lupus-like syndrome after hematopoietic cell transplantation: a case report
A man developed autoimmune issues after a transplant, improved with treatment, but died from leukemia relapse.
research 004 Cell-based therapy may be effective in alopecia areata: Preclinical evidence that autologous, peripheral regulatory γdT cells are preventive in human ex vivo and therapeutic in human in vivo models
Cell-based therapy using specific immune cells may help treat alopecia areata by promoting hair regrowth.
research Identification of the cell lineage at the origin of basal cell carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
