Blood tests can help understand the genetic differences in people with alopecia areata, including how severe it is and if it's inherited.
research Differential Impact of Environmental Factors on Systemic and Localized Autoimmunity
Environmental factors like diet and vitamin levels, especially Vitamin D, can affect autoimmune diseases differently, with lifestyle changes potentially improving outcomes.
research Serum Vitamin Levels in Different Categories of Androgenetic Alopecia Subjects
Smoking and drinking can lower vitamin levels and potentially trigger early hair loss, but overall vitamin levels don't seem to affect hair loss duration.
research Reconstructed Human Skin Shows Epidermal Invagination Towards Integrated Neopapillae Indicating Early Hair Follicle Formation In Vitro
The experiment showed that human skin grown in the lab started to form early hair structures when special cell clusters were added.
research Guidelines for the Use of Acitretin in Psoriasis
Acitretin is effective for severe psoriasis and can be used long-term due to no immunosuppression, but must be carefully monitored for side effects and is not for pregnant women.
research Mechanisms Involved in the Relationship Between Vitamin D and Insulin Resistance: Impact on Clinical Practice
Vitamin D might help regulate insulin in the body, but taking Vitamin D supplements doesn't clearly prevent or improve type 2 diabetes. More research is needed.
research Vitamin D and Alopecia Areata: Possible Roles in Pathogenesis and Potential Implications for Therapy
Vitamin D might be involved in the development of alopecia areata and could help in its treatment.
research Lack of Androgen Receptor Transcriptional Activity in Human Keratinocytes
Human keratinocytes do not naturally respond to androgens.
research Mutations in the Vitamin D Receptor and Hereditary Vitamin D-Resistant Rickets
Mutations in the vitamin D receptor cause hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, leading to poor bone health and requiring high calcium doses for treatment.
research Presence of a Deletion Mutation (c.716delA) in the Ligand Binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor in an Indian Patient with Vitamin D-Dependent Rickets Type II
A genetic mutation caused severe rickets and alopecia in an Indian patient, but high-dose calcium and phosphate treatment improved their condition.
research Potential Natural Products Regulation of Molecular Signaling Pathway in Dermal Papilla Stem Cells
Certain natural products may help stimulate hair growth by affecting stem cell activity in the scalp.
research Vitamin D-Dependent Rickets Type II with Alopecia: A Rare Case Report
A 4-year-old boy with a rare type of rickets and hair loss improved in bone health but not hair growth after vitamin D and calcium treatment.
research Addressing Androgenetic Alopecia: A Complex Disorder with a Multilateral Treatment Strategy
Treating hair loss effectively may require a multi-sided approach, using different treatments together, and topical treatments could be more effective and safer than oral ones.
research Behavioral Characterization of Vitamin D Receptor Knockout Mice
Vitamin D receptor knockout mice have significant motor impairments but no cognitive deficits.
research Serum Vitamin D Levels and Alopecia Areata: A Hospital-Based Case-Control Study from North India
People with Alopecia areata often have lower Vitamin D levels, which might affect the severity of their condition.
research Are Nutraceuticals Effective in Covid-19 and Post-Covid Prevention and Treatment?
Some nutraceuticals may help in COVID-19 prevention and treatment, but more research is needed.
research A Systematic Review of Keratinocyte Secretions: A Regenerative Perspective
Skin cells release substances important for healing and fighting infection, and understanding these could improve skin disorder treatments.
