Mast cells might contribute to hair loss by causing skin thickening.
research Alopecia Areata, Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis, and Ulcerative Colitis: Autoimmunity and Apoptosis as Common Links?
The conditions alopecia areata, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and ulcerative colitis may be linked by shared autoimmune and cell death mechanisms.
research Diagnostic accuracy measures for vertical and transverse scalp biopsies in cicatricial and non-cicatricial alopecias
Transverse scalp biopsies are more accurate for diagnosing non-cicatricial alopecia, but examining both types is best for accuracy.
research Alopecia areata: a comprehensive review of clinical, immunologic, and genetic perspectives

research Scalp psoriasis associated with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
A woman's severe hair loss was caused by scalp psoriasis, not the initially thought condition, and treatment improved her psoriasis but couldn't restore her lost hair.
research Rely on clinical experience to help guide treatment selection for primary cicatricial (scarring) alopecias
Doctors use their experience to choose treatments for scarring hair loss because it's hard to diagnose and treat.
research Androgenetic alopecia: the role of inflammation and Demodex
Inflammation and Demodex mites might contribute to hair loss, and targeting them could help treat it.
research Tinea capitis occurring in adults – a report of two cases with atypical presentation
Two adults with unusual scalp fungus symptoms were successfully treated.
research Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
CCCA is a scarring hair loss condition mainly in African descent women, possibly caused by genetics and hairstyling, treated with gentle hair care and medications.
research Peripheral blood gene expression in alopecia areata reveals molecular pathways distinguishing heritability, disease and severity
Blood tests can help understand the genetic differences in people with alopecia areata, including how severe it is and if it's inherited.
research Alopecia in IL-10-deficient mouse pups is c-kit-dependent and can be triggered by iron deficiency
Hair loss in certain young mice is linked to a specific gene and can be caused by lack of iron.
research Psoriatic Alopecia in a Patient with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
A woman with lupus improved significantly from scalp hair loss after treatment, highlighting the need to identify psoriatic alopecia in lupus patients to avoid permanent hair loss.
research Association of Human Beta – Defensin 1 Gene Polymorphisms with Alopecia Areata Patients
