Oxytocin receptors are found in skin cells near touch and pain neurons.
research Immunohistochemical study assessing stem cell factor receptor C-kit in patients with alopecia
People with alopecia have shorter hair follicles and more c-kit, a stem cell factor receptor, which could predict how the condition progresses.
research Phenotypic Analysis of T-Cells in Extensive Alopecia Areata Scalp Suggests Partial Tolerance
T-cells in alopecia areata scalp show abnormal regulation, leading to less inflammation.
research The potential of regulatory T cell-based therapies for alopecia areata
Treg cell-based therapies might help treat hair loss from alopecia areata, but more research is needed to confirm safety and effectiveness.
research Hair follicle immune privilege and its collapse in alopecia areata
Hair follicles are normally protected from the immune system, but when this protection fails, it can cause hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Single hair grafting for the treatment of vitiligo
Single hair grafting is effective for treating small, localized patches of vitiligo.
research The analysis of genetics and associated autoimmune diseases in Chinese vitiligo patients
Generalized vitiligo in Chinese patients is linked to other autoimmune diseases, especially in familial cases.
research Frontiers in alopecia areata pathobiology research
The review suggests that other immune cells besides CD8+ T cells may contribute to alopecia areata and that targeting regulatory cell defects could improve treatment.
research Alopecia areata - Vitiligo overlap syndrome: An emerging clinical variant
Alopecia areata and vitiligo can coexist, respond well to treatment, and may have a better prognosis together.
research Exploring Mast Cell–CD8 T Cell Interactions in Inflammatory Skin Diseases
Mast cells and CD8 T cells interact closely in skin diseases, affecting each other's behavior and contributing to conditions like psoriasis and eczema.

research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research (2015)
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
