research Neurogenic Inflammation in Stress-Induced Termination of Murine Hair Growth Is Promoted by Nerve Growth Factor
Stress increases a factor in mice that leads to hair loss, and blocking this factor may prevent it.
research Immunological challenges associated with artificial skin grafts: available solutions and stem cells in future design of synthetic skin
Artificial skin grafts face immune rejection, but stem cells may improve future designs.
research Prolactin and the Skin: A Dermatological Perspective on an Ancient Pleiotropic Peptide Hormone
Prolactin affects hair growth and skin conditions, and could be a target for new skin disease treatments.
research Transient CD44 Variant Isoform Expression and Reduction in CD4+/CD25+ Regulatory T Cells in C3H/HeJ Mice with Alopecia Areata
CD44 variant changes start alopecia areata, but don't maintain it.
research FOXN1: A Master Regulator Gene of Thymic Epithelial Development Program
The FOXN1 gene is crucial for developing immune cells and preventing immune disorders.
research Endogenous retinoids in the hair follicle and sebaceous gland
Maintaining the right amount of retinoic acid is crucial for healthy hair and skin.
research Transient mitochondrial DNA double strand breaks in mice cause accelerated aging phenotypes in a ROS-dependent but p53/p21-independent manner
Damaging mitochondrial DNA in mice speeds up aging due to increased reactive oxygen species, not through the p53/p21 pathway.
research Current and Potential Agents for the Treatment of Alopecia Areata>
Current and future treatments for alopecia areata focus on immunosuppression, immunomodulation, and protecting hair follicles.
research An overview of JAK/STAT pathways and JAK inhibition in alopecia areata
Blocking JAK/STAT pathways can help treat hair loss from alopecia areata.
research Malt1 Protease Is Critical in Maintaining Function of Regulatory T Cells and May Be a Therapeutic Target for Antitumor Immunity
Malt1 protease is essential for regulatory T cell function and could be targeted to boost antitumor immunity.
research The spectrum of hair loss in patients with mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome
Some patients with mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome experience hair loss, which may be similar to alopecia areata or linked to skin lesions, possibly due to abnormal T cells, and bexarotene can help treat it.
research FOXN1 Deficiency: from the Discovery to Novel Therapeutic Approaches
New treatments for immune disorders caused by FOXN1 deficiency are promising.
research In vivo CD44‐CD49d complex formation in autoimmune disease has consequences on T cell activation and apoptosis resistance
The CD44-CD49d complex boosts T cell activation and survival in autoimmune disease.
research Oncogenic senescence: a multi-functional perspective
Cellular senescence has both cancer-blocking and cancer-promoting effects, and targeting senescent cells may improve health and lifespan.
research A novel therapeutic paradigm for patients with extensive alopecia areata
New treatments targeting immune pathways show promise for severe hair loss but need more research for safety and effectiveness.
research Cholesterol homeostasis: Links to hair follicle biology and hair disorders
Cholesterol balance is important for hair health, and problems with it can lead to hair loss conditions.
research Alopecia in Rhesus macaques correlates with immunophenotypic alterations in dermal inflammatory infiltrates consistent with hypersensitivity etiology
Hair loss in Rhesus macaques may be caused by a skin allergy-related condition.
research Alopecia areata
Alopecia areata involves immune response and gene changes affecting hair loss.
research Early stage alopecia areata is associated with inflammation in the upper dermis and damage to the hair follicle infundibulum
Early stage bald spots are linked to skin inflammation and damage to the upper part of the hair follicle.
research Histologic progression of acne inversa/hidradenitis suppurativa: Implications for future investigations and therapeutic intervention
Acne inversa is an epithelial-driven disease where inflammation is caused by cyst rupture, and treatments should focus on preventing tendril growth for better results.
research Human Macrophages Preferentially Infiltrate the Superficial Adipose Tissue
Human body's immune cells are more common in the layer of fat just beneath the skin than in deeper fat layers.
research FOXN1 Italian founder mutation in Indian family: Implications in prenatal diagnosis
A rare genetic mutation found in an Indian family can be detected through prenatal screening.
research Alopecia areata in a rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta)
The monkey's hair loss was due to an autoimmune disease, not genetics.
research Hair follicles and their role in skin health
Hair follicles are essential for skin health, aiding in hair growth, wound healing, and immune function.
research Restoration of hair growth with topical diphencyprone in mouse and rat models of alopecia areata
Topical diphencyprone helped regrow hair in mice and rats with a condition similar to human hair loss.
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 Immune Cells in Cutaneous Wound Healing: A Review of Functional Data from Animal Models
Different immune cells like platelets, mast cells, neutrophils, macrophages, T cells, B cells, and innate lymphoid cells all play roles in skin wound healing, but more research is needed due to inconsistent results and the complex nature of the immune response.
research Inflammatory loops in the epithelial–immune microenvironment of the skin and skin appendages in chronic inflammatory diseases
Chronic inflammatory skin diseases are caused by disrupted interactions between skin cells and immune cells.
