research Choreographing Immunity in the Skin Epithelial Barrier
The document concludes that the skin's immune system is complex, involving interactions with hair follicles, nerves, and microbes, and can protect or cause disease, offering targets for new treatments.
research A neuroendocrinological perspective on human hair follicle pigmentation
Brain hormones significantly affect hair color and could potentially be used to prevent or reverse grey hair.
research Clinical perspectives on the age-related increase of immunosuppressive activity
Aging and chronic inflammation weaken the immune system, increasing cancer and infection risks.
research 25 Years of Epidermal Stem Cell Research
Research on epidermal stem cells has advanced significantly, showing promise for improved clinical therapies.
research Hair-Growth Potential of Ginseng and Its Major Metabolites: A Review on Its Molecular Mechanisms
Ginseng and its compounds may help hair growth and prevent hair loss, but more human trials are needed to confirm this.
research Efficacy of tofacitinib in treatment of alopecia universalis in two patients
Tofacitinib was effective in treating hair loss in two patients with alopecia universalis.
research Advances in the management of alopecia areata
New treatments for severe hair loss often fail, but some patients see hair regrowth with specific therapies, and treatment should be tailored to the individual's situation.
research Treatment of alopecia universalis with topical Janus kinase inhibitors – a double blind, placebo, and active controlled pilot study
Topical JAK inhibitors may help treat alopecia universalis by promoting hair regrowth.
research Cicatricial (Scarring) Alopecias
Scarring alopecias are complex hair loss disorders that require early treatment to prevent permanent hair loss.
research Primary cicatricial alopecia: Recent advances in understanding and management
New understanding of the causes of primary cicatricial alopecia has led to better diagnosis and potential new treatments.
research Therapeutic strategies for treating hair loss
The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.
research A wearable and stretchable dual-wavelength LED device for home care of chronic infected wounds
A new wearable LED device helps heal chronic infected wounds at home.
research Current and Potential Agents for the Treatment of Alopecia Areata>
Current and future treatments for alopecia areata focus on immunosuppression, immunomodulation, and protecting hair follicles.
research Deciphering the functions of the hair follicle infundibulum in skin physiology and disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Vasoactive intestinal peptide, whose receptor-mediated signalling may be defective in alopecia areata, provides protection from hair follicle immune privilege collapse
A substance called VIP might protect hair follicles from being attacked by the immune system, and problems with VIP signaling could lead to hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research Topical and intralesional therapies for alopecia areata
No treatments fully cure or prevent alopecia areata; some help but have side effects or need more research.
research Dermatoses of pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause specific skin conditions that need correct diagnosis and treatment to protect both mother and baby.
research Alefacept for Alopecia Areata
Alefacept showed some effectiveness for alopecia areata but needs more research.
research New onset of alopecia areata in a patient with SARS‐CoV‐2 infection: Possible pathogenetic correlations?
