630-660 / 1000+ resultsresearch 801 TEC family kinase inhibitors as a novel class of therapeutics in alopecia areata
ITK inhibitors may effectively treat alopecia areata.
research Scarring hair follicle destruction is driven by the collapse of EGFR-protected JAK-STAT1-sensitive stem cell immune privilege
A protein called EGFR protects hair follicle stem cells, and when it's disrupted, hair follicles can be damaged, but blocking certain pathways can restore hair growth.
research 031 Inducible skin-associated lymphoid tissue (iSALT) is detected in the scalp treated with topical immunotherapy for alopecia areata
Topical immunotherapy for alopecia areata may work by creating immune cell clusters in the skin.
research Role of the Autoimmune Regulator (AIRE) gene in alopecia areata: Strong association of a potentially functional AIRE polymorphism with alopecia universalis
A specific gene change is linked to severe hair loss.
research 311 Single-cell transcriptomics reveals distinct molecular programs in folliculotropic mycosis fungoides
Folliculotropic mycosis fungoides has unique molecular features and cell interactions that could guide targeted therapy.
research Feline and Canine Cutaneous Lymphocytosis: Reactive Process or Indolent Neoplastic Disease?
Feline cutaneous lymphocytosis is likely reactive, while canine cutaneous lymphocytosis needs more study to understand its nature.
research Efficacy and safety of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in treating type 1 diabetes mellitus
AHST shows promise for treating type 1 diabetes but needs more research before widespread use.
research 1432 Mechanosensitive lymphocytes potentiate wound repair by regulating inflammation and extracellular matrix
Lymphocytes, a type of immune cell, are crucial for wound healing as they help remodel damaged areas and reduce inflammation.
research Comprehensive single-cell transcriptomic profiling of the scalp from patients with moderate-to-severe alopecia areata
Alopecia areata involves immune system issues and specific cell types that disrupt hair growth, leading to hair loss.
research Immunologic findings in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
CCCA may be caused by both hair traction and an immune response.
research UVB-induced depletion of donor-derived dendritic cells prevents allograft rejection of immune-privileged hair follicles in humanized mice
UV light helped human hair transplants survive in mice without broad immunosuppression.
research LB922 CyTOF immune profiling uncovers sex- and race-specific differences and cellular biomarkers for biologic response in Hidradenitis suppurativa
Sex and race affect immune responses and treatment outcomes in Hidradenitis suppurativa.
research Innate immunity and the regulation and mobilization of keratinocyte stem cells: are the old players playing a new game?
Innate immunity genes in hair follicle stem cells might have new roles beyond traditional immune functions.
research Immune Cell-Targeting Biologics for Alopecia Areata: A New Paradigm in Precision Medicine
Immune cell-targeting biologics show potential for treating alopecia areata but need better-targeted therapies.
research Hepatology highlights
Tenofovir is more effective than adefovir for resistant hepatitis B, Fibroscan is good for assessing liver damage, regulatory T cells may help hepatitis C persist, and other insights into liver health and disease were found.
research Large-Scale Epitope Identification Screen and Its Potential Application to the Study of Alopecia Areata
The conclusion is that a new method could improve the identification of autoimmune targets in alopecia areata, despite some limitations.
research 415 IL-17C: Checkpoint in innate skin immunology
IL-17C is important in inflammatory skin diseases and could be a target for treatment.
research Epidermal growth factor receptor/mitogen-activated kinase inhibitor treatment induces a distinct inflammatory hair follicle response that includes collapse of immune privilege
EGFRi/MEKi treatments cause hair follicles to lose some immune protection, leading to inflammation.
research Prophylactic Amotosalen-Treated Donor T-Cells Prevent Late CMV Infection in Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplantation.
Amotosalen-treated donor T-cells can prevent late CMV infection after bone marrow transplants.
