In this observational study conducted at a tertiary care center, researchers found that post-COVID patients most commonly experienced telogen effluvium and other dermatological issues like herpes infection and acne, with middle-aged and female patients being predominantly affected.

This manuscript reviews the latest understanding of alopecia areata's pathogenesis, highlighting the roles of genetic, immunological, and environmental factors, with a focus on immune responses involving IFN-γ and cytotoxic CD8+ T-cells as key contributors to hair follicle inflammation and function disruption without follicle destruction.

This study found distinct gene expression profiles in alopecia areata-affected skin, suggesting T-cell mediated immune responses and unique gene profiles between different stages of the disease.

This study found that the GPRC6A-Duox1 signaling pathway influences hair cycle progression and testosterone-mediated hair loss in mice, suggesting that disruption of this pathway leads to resistance against testosterone-induced hair loss and longer anagen phase duration.

This review discusses rodent models of alopecia areata and suggests they are crucial for understanding the autoimmune mechanisms and potential treatments but reports no new clinical results.
