research The role of B cell-activating factor system in autoimmune diseases: mechanisms, disease implications, and therapeutic advances

4 citations , June 2025 in “Frontiers in Immunology”

This review discusses the role of the BAFF system in autoimmune diseases and highlights its therapeutic potential, emphasizing the need for disease-specific clinical trials to improve treatment strategies.

research Volatile organic compounds: A proinflammatory activator in autoimmune diseases

18 citations , July 2022 in “Frontiers in Immunology”

This review discusses the potential impact of volatile organic compound exposure on the onset and progression of autoimmune diseases and reports no new experimental findings.

research In vivo CD44‐CD49d complex formation in autoimmune disease has consequences on T cell activation and apoptosis resistance

33 citations , October 2006 in “European Journal of Immunology”

This study found that CD44 and CD49d together enhance signaling pathways in lymphocytes in mice with alopecia areata, influencing their activation and function.

research Aberrant inflammasome activation as a driving force of human autoimmune skin disease

3 citations , May 2023 in “Frontiers in immunology”

This study reviewed the role of inflammasomes in autoimmune skin diseases, highlighting their contribution to the pathogenesis of conditions such as vitiligo, alopecia areata, and psoriasis, and suggesting that targeting inflammasome dysregulation may offer new therapeutic options.

STAT5 Activation in the Dermal Papilla Is Important for Hair Follicle Growth Phase Induction, Hair Follicle Regeneration, and Wound Healing

research 219 STAT5 activation in the dermal papilla is important for hair follicle growth phase induction, hair follicle regeneration and wound healing

1 citations , August 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

This research reported that STAT5 activation in the dermal papilla plays a crucial role in triggering anagen entry during post-developmental hair follicle cycling.

community PP405: The Ultimate Hair Loss Drug for Complete Hair Growth

211 upvotes 1 year ago

PP405 is a new hair loss treatment in phase 2 trials that may promote hair growth by increasing lactate production and activating hair follicle stem cells. It could potentially replace hormone-disrupting treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride.

community Hair loss after COVID or vaccination isn’t “made up” but it’s also not what TikTok makes it sound like

2 upvotes 8 months ago

COVID and COVID vaccination can trigger hair loss, primarily telogen effluvium, due to stress and immune system activation. Proper diagnosis and addressing factors like nutrition and stress are crucial for recovery.

community You will lose hair if your prostaglandins aren't in balance

56 upvotes 1 year ago

Prostaglandin balance affects hair loss, particularly in conditions like Lichen Planopilaris, where an imbalance can lead to hair follicle damage. Treatments mentioned include prostaglandin analogs and Pioglitazone HCL, with a focus on maintaining prostaglandin equilibrium for potential hair regrowth.

community Which 2026 hair‑loss treatments have the strongest evidence so far? (minoxidil/finasteride vs. clascoterone, PP405, Re:You’s NV‑623/624, AMP‑303, RU58841)

44 upvotes 3 months ago

Minoxidil and finasteride are the only FDA-approved treatments for androgenetic alopecia, while newer treatments like clascoterone, PP405, NV-623/624, AMP-303, and RU58841 are still experimental with varying levels of evidence. Clascoterone shows the most promise due to strong human data, while AMP-303 has notable early human trial results; RU58841 lacks human data and remains experimental.

community My Theory Of Androgenic Alopecia

16 upvotes 10 months ago

Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.

learn Cetirizine

Could cetirizine help control autoimmune triggers in alopecia areata? No published trial has tested cetirizine in alopecia areata; one registered trial has not reported results. Small trials in pattern hair loss report modest benefit, so any use for alopecia areata is off-label and unproven.

learn Tofacitinib

What is tofacitinib, and why is it discussed in relation to autoimmune-related hair loss such as alopecia areata? Tofacitinib is a prescription JAK inhibitor approved for rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and ulcerative colitis — not for alopecia areata. It is discussed for hair loss because a 2014 case report and a 2016 open-label trial reported regrowth in severe alopecia areata, but that use is off-label, the regrowth relapsed after stopping, and the drug carries an FDA boxed warning.
