Research
420-450 / 1000+ results research Targetoid Hair Regrowth Pattern in Alopecia Areata: A Case Series
A rare hair regrowth pattern can occur in some people with alopecia areata.
research The Arrector Pili Muscle and the Follicular Unit of the Scalp: A Microscopic Anatomy Study
The study found that hair follicles are above muscle connections in the scalp, which may help protect stem cell areas.
research Melanocytes: A possible autoimmune target in alopecia areata
Melanocytes might be targeted by the immune system in people with alopecia areata, but more research is needed.
research The Contributory Roles of Th17 Lymphocyte and Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte at the Hair Bulge Region as Well as the Hair Bulb Area in the Chronic Alopecia Areata Patients
Certain immune cells contribute to severe hair loss in chronic alopecia areata, with Th17 cells possibly having a bigger impact than cytotoxic T cells.
research EFFECTS OF STEROID HORMONES ON DEVELOPING MOUSE SKIN IN VITRO
Cortisol and corticosterone thin mouse skin and regress hair follicles, while testosterone promotes skin and hair development.
research MicroRNA-1246 Inhibits NFATc1 Phosphorylation and Regulates T Helper 17 Cell Activation in the Pathogenesis of Severe Alopecia Areata
A substance called miR-1246 may help treat severe hair loss by reducing certain immune cell activities.
research Lactiplantibacillus plantarum ZJUIDS51 improves androgenic alopecia via gut-skin axis
Lactiplantibacillus plantarum ZJUIDS51 can help regrow hair and improve scalp health in androgenic alopecia.
research A humanized IL-2 fusion protein enhances T regulatory cells in vivo and restrains disease in a murine model of Alopecia Areata 4760
A humanized IL-2 fusion protein boosts T regulatory cells and helps control hair loss in Alopecia Areata.
research Immunohistochemical Localization of Basement Membrane Components During Hair Follicle Morphogenesis
research Response to minoxidil in severe alopecia areata correlates with T lymphocyte stimulation
Increased T cell activity may predict hair regrowth success with minoxidil in severe alopecia areata.
research Regulatory T cells in autoimmune skin diseases
Treg dysfunction is linked to various autoimmune skin diseases, and understanding Treg properties is key for new treatments.
research Terminalia bellirica (Gaertn.) Roxb. extracts reshape the perifollicular microenvironment and regulate the MAPK pathway for androgenetic alopecia treatment
Terminalia bellirica extracts effectively promote hair regrowth and treat androgenetic alopecia.
research Effect of thioredoxin reductase 1 on glucocorticoid receptor activity in human outer root sheath cells
Thioredoxin reductase 1 does not affect glucocorticoid receptor activity in hair follicle cells.
research 265 Loss of Langerhans cells in scar lesion of lichen planopilaris is caused by downregulation of integrin αvβ6 in the epidermal keratinocytes
Scarred skin in lichen planopilaris loses immune cells due to a decrease in a specific protein in skin cells.
research Hair Vibrissa Follicle Morphogenesis is Linked to the Expression of Retinoic Acid Receptors α and γ Genes
Retinoic acid receptors are important for hair follicle development.
research Evaluation of serum zinc level in patients with Alopecia Areata
Lower zinc levels are linked to more severe hair loss in alopecia areata.
research LB708 ILC1-like innate lymphocytes in human autoimmunity: Lessons from Alopecia Areata
