This study found that selective downregulation of CD200 in the bulge area might contribute to unusual bulge involvement in a subset of alopecia areata cases.

In this study, researchers explored the heterogeneity of pigment cells in the human scalp anagen hair follicle bulb and discovered unexpected subpopulations of melanocytes, including immature SOX10-negative cells, highlighting potential non-melanogenic roles or transitional migratory functions that require further investigation.

This report describes a rare case of alopecia areata universalis developing in a child during the recovery phase of phenobarbital-induced anti-convulsant hypersensitivity syndrome, which suggests a mechanism involving lymphocyte-related immune responses.

In this study, topical minoxidil was reported to increase fenestration in follicular capillary walls around anagen hair bulbs in male rats.

This study found that Th17 lymphocytes may play a more crucial role than cytotoxic T cells in the development of alopecia areata due to their infiltration around the hair bulb/bulge, which exacerbates hair loss as histopathological grade worsens.
