research Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptors Gamma Serum Levels and Gene Polymorphism in Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: A Case-Control Study
This study involving 93 Egyptian female patients with Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia (FFA) and 157 healthy controls found that FFA patients had significantly lower serum levels of Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptors Gamma (PPARγ) and a higher prevalence of the PPARG (Pro12Ala) gene polymorphism. These genetic variations were linked to reduced PPARγ levels and increased FFA severity, suggesting that PPARγ could be a crucial biomarker for FFA. Although the study indicates the potential of PPARγ agonists in treating FFA, it could not evaluate their therapeutic efficacy due to patient compliance issues.
