November 2023 in “Aktualʹnì problemi sučasnoï medicini” The guidelines suggest using various treatments, including antidepressants and steroids, for alopecia areata and discuss the condition's genetic and immune aspects.
November 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” Assessing CD8+ T cell levels before surgery may improve vitiligo treatment outcomes.
July 2023 in “Stem Cells Translational Medicine” Mesenchymal Stem/Stromal Cells (MSCs) help in wound healing and tissue regeneration, but can also contribute to tumor growth. They show promise in treating chronic wounds and certain burns, but their full healing mechanisms and potential challenges need further exploration.
May 2023 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” Mesenchymal stem cells could help treat radiation-induced bladder damage but more research is needed to overcome current limitations.
May 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Blocking DPP4 can potentially speed up hair growth and regeneration, especially after injury or in cases of hair loss.
January 2023 in “Eurasian journal of science and engineering” Medicinal plants in Kurdistan have potential health benefits and need more research for drug development.
December 2019 in “SLAS technology” New findings suggest certain genes and microRNAs are crucial for wound healing, and innovative technologies like smart bandages and apps show promise in improving treatment.
January 2019 in “Springer eBooks” Combination therapies might work better for some vitiligo patients, but results vary.
March 2017 in “Current dermatology reports” Topical JAK inhibitors can effectively treat alopecia areata and vitiligo by modulating immune responses.
January 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings” The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
