research Alopecia areata patients show deficiency of FOXP3+CD39+ T regulatory cells and clonotypic restriction of Treg TCRβ-chain, which highlights the immunopathological aspect of the disease
Patients with Alopecia areata have fewer specific immune cells that normally regulate the immune system, which may contribute to the condition.
research A review of monochromatic light devices for the treatment of alopecia areata
Monochromatic light devices, especially the 308-nm excimer laser, are promising for treating alopecia areata but more research is needed.
research Breakdown of Immune Tolerance in AIRE-Deficient Rats Induces a Severe Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathy–Candidiasis–Ectodermal Dystrophy–like Autoimmune Disease
AIRE-deficient rats developed severe autoimmune disease similar to APECED, useful for testing treatments.
research Exfoliative cutaneous lupus erythematosus in German shorthaired pointer dogs: disease development, progression and evaluation of three immunomodulatory drugs (ciclosporin, hydroxychloroquine, and adalimumab) in a controlled environment
Hydroxychloroquine showed some potential, but overall, the three drugs had limited success in treating lupus in dogs.

The document concludes that computational models are useful for understanding immune responses and could improve cancer immunotherapy.
research Topical Mechlorethamine Restores Autoimmune-Arrested Follicular Activity in Mice with an Alopecia Areata-Like Disease by Targeting Infiltrated Lymphocytes
Mechlorethamine treatment regrew hair in mice by killing immune cells causing hair loss without harming hair follicles.
research The Contributory Roles of Th17 Lymphocyte and Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte at the Hair Bulge Region as Well as the Hair Bulb Area in the Chronic Alopecia Areata Patients
Certain immune cells contribute to severe hair loss in chronic alopecia areata, with Th17 cells possibly having a bigger impact than cytotoxic T cells.
research Alopecia areata in a rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta)
The monkey's hair loss was due to an autoimmune disease, not genetics.
research Alopecia Universalis Associated with Cutaneous T Cell Lymphoma
Some patients with a type of skin lymphoma can experience a rare, non-scarring hair loss that looks like another hair loss condition but has distinct features.
research Immunological aspects and gender bias during respiratory viral infections including novel Coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19): A scoping review
Men are more likely to have severe respiratory viral infections like COVID-19 due to hormonal and genetic differences, while women generally have stronger immune responses.
research DMBA/TPA Treatment Is Necessary for BCC Formation from Patched Deficient Epidermal Cells in Ptch flox/flox CD4Cre +/− Mice
Genetic mutation and carcinogen treatment are both needed for skin cancer to develop in these specific mice.
research Non‐infective mucocutaneous presentations of human immunodeficiency virus infection
Most HIV patients develop skin symptoms that can indicate the stage of their disease.
research T-Cell Reconstitution after Thymus Xenotransplantation Induces Hair Depigmentation and Loss
T-cell reconstitution after thymus transplantation can cause hair whitening and loss.
research Alopecia Associated with Fluconazole Therapy
High doses of fluconazole can cause reversible hair loss.
research The genetically programmed hair growth cycle and alopecia: what is there to know?
The document concludes that hair loss is complex, affects many people, has limited treatments, and requires more research on its causes and psychological impact.
research Research Progress of Skin Barrier and Acne
Impaired skin barrier function worsens acne.
research Astilbin Activates the Reactive Oxidative Species/PPARγ Pathway to Suppress Effector CD4+ T Cell Activities via Direct Binding With Cytochrome P450 1B1
Astilbin can potentially calm overactive immune responses, like in Type 1 Diabetes, by suppressing certain cell activities and reducing inflammation.
research Alopecia Areata
Understanding the immune-related causes of Alopecia Areata has led to potential treatments like JAK inhibitors.
research HIV infection mimicking autoimmune disorder
A girl with symptoms like an autoimmune disorder actually had HIV and a fungal infection, which was hard to diagnose and treat, leading to her death.
research A hair-follicle reconstructed in vitro immunocompetent skin model for prediction of the sensitizing potential of chemicals
The new skin model can predict how chemicals might cause skin allergies.
research Jagged-1+ Skin Tregs Modulate the Innate Immune Response to Wound Healing
Jagged-1 in skin Tregs is crucial for timely wound healing by recruiting specific immune cells.
research Medical Treatment of Alopecia
The most effective treatments for hair loss are minoxidil, finasteride, PRP, and hair transplants, with steroids and immunosuppressants for autoimmune types.
research 264 CCR5 blockade shows prevention of alopecia areata development as well as improvement of alopecia areata
