research Segmental Vitiligo and Hair Curling After Interferon α and Ribavirin Treatment for Hepatitis C
A woman developed white patches on her skin and curly hair after hepatitis C treatment, likely due to the medication interferon alpha.
research Performance of an interferon-γ release assay-based test for cell-mediated immunity to SARS-CoV-2
In this study, researchers reported that a newly developed interferon-γ release assay for cell-mediated immunity to SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid peptides demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity, making it a robust tool for routine diagnostic tests and potentially useful in predicting clinical outcomes after pathogen re-exposure.
research Author response: Involvement of ILC1-like innate lymphocytes in human autoimmunity, lessons from alopecia areata
This study found that innate lymphoid cells-type 1 (ILC1) can induce alopecia areata by disrupting hair follicle immune privilege without the involvement of classical CD8+ T cells.
research Evaluation of Serum Toll-Like Receptor 4, Interferon Gamma, and Interleukin-17 Levels in Iraqi Patients with Alopecia Areata
This study found significantly higher levels of Toll-Like Receptor 4, interferon gamma, and interleukin-17 in Iraqi patients with alopecia areata compared to controls, suggesting these immune markers play a crucial role in the disease's development and could be targets for future treatments.

Switching from topical to oral minoxidil may lead to better results for some users, with oral minoxidil generally being more effective due to higher absorption. However, it can also cause side effects like hypertrichosis and blood pressure issues, and individual responses may vary.
community Thinking about adding PRP - any real downsides?
The user has been using minoxidil, finasteride, dermastamping, and Nizoral for hair loss with initial success but is considering adding PRP due to slowed progress. Concerns about PRP include potential ineffectiveness and whether it could harm existing hair growth or interfere with current treatments.
community Korean scientists breakthrough in hair regeneration targeting CXXC5 protein and WNT Signaling Pathway
A potential non-invasive topical treatment targeting the WNT Signaling Pathway for hair regeneration is being researched, with positive results on human hair follicle cells. Current effective treatments for hair loss include Minoxidil, finasteride, and hair transplantation.
community Switching from Finasteride to Dutasteride
Switching from finasteride to dutasteride for hair loss treatment, with concerns about dosage and potential shedding. Users suggest maintaining minoxidil dosage and possibly transitioning gradually to avoid hair loss.
community Updated Progress- 10 MONTHS MARK - NW7 Diffuse going for the comeback. New Pictures (49M)
A 49-year-old user shared their 10-month hair recovery journey using finasteride, topical minoxidil, and considering oral minoxidil, with plans to evaluate dutasteride at 18 months. They reported noticeable hair thickening and reduced self-consciousness, despite a slow process and initial setbacks.
