research Dermoscopic features of discoid lupus erythematosus
Dermoscopy is useful for diagnosing and monitoring discoid lupus erythematosus by showing specific skin patterns.
research Perifollicular inflammation and follicular spongiosis in androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss in both Androgenetic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata is often accompanied by inflammation around hair follicles, but the location and severity of this inflammation varies.
research 1312 Nrf2 activation enhances the healing of cutaneous wounds through the activation of hair follicle stem cells
Activating Nrf2 helps wounds heal faster by increasing hair follicle stem cells.
