Research
300-330 / 1000+ results research Direct cellular reprogramming enables development of viral T antigen–driven Merkel cell carcinoma in mice
Scientists made a mouse model of a serious skin cancer by changing skin cells with a virus and a specific gene, which is similar to the disease in humans.
research Seborrhoeic Dermatitis in Pigmy Goats
Pygmy goats with seborrhoeic dermatitis showed skin symptoms and temporary improvement with corticosteroids, but the cause and inheritance of the disease remain unknown.
research Skin amidst COVID ‐19 pandemic
COVID-19 can cause various skin issues, including rashes and 'COVID toes', and may worsen autoimmune diseases or affect men with baldness more severely.
research Erythema Nodosum Leprosum
The study suggests that complement activation, not immunoglobulins, may be important in erythema nodosum leprosum.
research Alopecia Areata, Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis, and Ulcerative Colitis: Autoimmunity and Apoptosis as Common Links?
The conditions alopecia areata, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and ulcerative colitis may be linked by shared autoimmune and cell death mechanisms.
research Advances in Vitiligo Treatment
Vitiligo treatment requires a personalized mix of therapies to restore skin color and improve life quality.
research Cutaneous lupus erythematosus: a review
Patients with certain skin symptoms and high ANA titers should be monitored for potential systemic lupus.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa: a review of cause and treatment
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a skin condition possibly caused by hair follicle issues, with treatments focusing on infection and inflammation.
research The role of vitamin D in alopecia areata
Vitamin D might help treat alopecia areata.
research What is behind the ‘swarm of bees’ in alopecia areata
Alopecia areata is caused by immune system issues, and JAK inhibitors might help treat it.
research Conjoint analysis of methylation, transcriptomic, and proteomic profiles in pemphigus vulgaris
Changes in genes FGA, VWF, and ACTG1 may contribute to pemphigus vulgaris.
research What causes acne inversa (or hidradenitis suppurativa)? – The debate continues
The exact cause of hidradenitis suppurativa is unclear, but it may involve hair follicles, hormones, genetics, and smoking.
research What causes acne inversa (or hidradenitis suppurativa)? – the debate continues
The exact cause of hidradenitis suppurativa is still unknown.
research Immuno-Endocrinology of COVID-19: The Key Role of Sex Hormones
Sex hormones may affect COVID-19 severity, with estrogen possibly reducing risk and testosterone potentially increasing it.
research Aberrant Wnt signalling induces comedo-like changes in the upper hair follicle
Abnormal Wnt signaling in hair follicle stem cells can lead to acne-like cysts.
research Markers of inflammation, metabolic disorders, and principles of treatment for alopecia areata in children
Janus kinase inhibitors show promise for treating alopecia areata in children.
research 083 More Expression of IL-17 than IFN-γ from CD49a-negative Tissue-Resident Memory T (Trm) cells at the Hair Bulge and Hair Bulb Region in the Scalp of Chronic Alopecia Areata Patients according to the Foxp3+mTregs depletion
IL-17 and certain immune cells are linked to more severe alopecia areata.
research Cicatricial (Scarring) Alopecias
Scarring alopecias are complex hair loss disorders that require early treatment to prevent permanent hair loss.
research Predominant expression of interleukin (IL)‐17 in chronic alopecia areata compared to IFN‐γ in pathogenic Th17 cells, tissue‐resident memory T cells and natural killer cells
IL-17 is more important than IFN-γ in causing severe hair loss in chronic alopecia areata.
research IL-3 contributes to development of lupus nephritis in MRL/Ipr mice
IL-3 worsens lupus nephritis and blocking it improves kidney health.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia shows robust T helper 1 and Janus kinase 3 skewing
Frontal fibrosing alopecia is linked to increased immune system activity and reduced stem cells, suggesting early treatment targeting this pathway might prevent hair follicle damage.
research The Roles of Keratinocytes in the Initiation, Progression and Maintenance of Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Keratinocytes contribute to hidradenitis suppurativa by causing inflammation and worsening the condition.
research 319 Novel Circulating Natural Killer Cell Subset as Biomarkers in Alopecia Areata Progression
Certain NK cell changes in blood may indicate alopecia areata progression.
research Topical metformin as a novel therapy for alopecia areata due to its immunologic effects
Metformin, usually used for diabetes, can also help treat hair loss from alopecia areata due to its ability to reduce inflammation and stimulate new hair growth.
research Penatalaksanaan Alopecia Areata (Treatment of Allopecia Areata)
Alopecia Areata is treated with drugs and therapies to reduce inflammation and immune response.
research Melanocortin receptor type 2 (MC2R, ACTH receptor) expression in patients with alopecia areata
