research Regulatory T cells in skin mediate immune privilege of the hair follicle stem cell niche
Regulatory T cells protect hair follicle stem cells by maintaining immune privilege in the skin.
research Immune-Mediated Diseases of the Central Nervous System
The document explains the difficulty in diagnosing and treating brain diseases caused by the immune system and stresses the need for quick and accurate tests.
research Transcriptional profiling in alopecia areata defines immune and cell cycle control related genes within disease-specific signatures
The study found that immune responses disrupt hair growth cycles, causing hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Hair follicle immune privilege in autoimmune and immune-mediated alopecias: paths toward reestablishing immune tolerance
Different types of alopecia cause hair loss due to immune system issues, with some allowing regrowth and others causing permanent loss.
