30 / 1000+ resultsresearch Does collapse of immune privilege in the hair-follicle bulge play a role in the pathogenesis of primary cicatricial alopecia?
Immune privilege collapse in hair follicles may cause permanent hair loss in certain conditions.
research Effects of cyclosporine A on clinical and histologic abnormalities in dogs with sebaceous adenitis
Cyclosporine A can reduce inflammation in dogs with sebaceous adenitis, but ongoing treatment is needed.
