This case report detailed alopecia universalis developing shortly after hepatitis C treatment with peg-interferon, ribavirin, and telaprevir, suggesting potential immune-related links between interferon treatment and alopecia areata.

A woman with a rare autoimmune disorder had a blister on her eye and unique immune reaction, which was effectively treated with medication.

This case report highlights the complexity of lupus erythematosus/lichen planus overlap syndrome, noting a high potential for progression to systemic lupus erythematosus.

This study demonstrated that biochemical analysis of proteins from fetal skin biopsies is feasible, potentially enhancing prenatal diagnostic capabilities for protein-related disorders.

This study examined FAERS data and found an increasing trend in alopecia areata cases, with monoclonal antibodies most frequently linked to the condition.

This case report presents a rare instance of coexistent tumid lupus erythematosus and systemic lupus erythematosus in a patient, with symptom improvement noted after hydroxychloroquine treatment.

This case report describes a 5-year-old girl whose undiagnosed Coeliac disease presented with symptoms of alopecia, iron deficiency anemia, and trichobezoar, indicating a link between malabsorption, anemia, and resulting pica.

This study found that alopecia areata patients had significantly abnormal T3, T4, TPOAbs, ANA, and lower vitamin D levels compared to healthy controls.

This study suggests that vitamin D treatment may be less effective in reducing thyroid autoimmunity for euthyroid men with early-onset androgenic alopecia compared to other men with autoimmune thyroiditis.

This report describes the development of a low-cost method to mass-produce ostrich antibodies, which were shown to alleviate allergic reactions and demonstrate therapeutic effects in conditions such as atopic dermatitis, acne, and pollen allergies, potentially providing an alternative to steroids or antibiotics.

This study found that drug-induced alopecia areata was most commonly associated with TNF-alpha inhibitors and dupilumab, with most cases improving after discontinuing the medication.

This case report describes a rare instance where a young woman initially presented with macrophage activation syndrome as the first sign of systemic lupus erythematosus, and ultimately experienced multiorgan failure and death.

This case report details a rare instance of simultaneous onset of systemic lupus erythematosus and IgG4-related disease in a 73-year-old woman, where treatment improved symptoms by using high-dose glucocorticoids, hydroxychloroquine, and belimumab.

Eyelash loss can be a sign of thyroid problems.

This review discusses various types of microneedles and their potential to expand the range of drugs delivered via the skin, but reports no new clinical results.

In this review, researchers summarize drugs associated with scarring or permanent hair loss, notably after chemotherapy and tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatments, emphasizing the need for stronger evidence and long-term follow-up studies, as current findings are mostly from case reports.

This review discusses the mechanisms of hair repigmentation and reports no clinical results; the authors suggest further research into topical treatments for reversing gray hair.

In this study, hyperplastic layers of scabietic sheep skin showed expansive keratin labeling, indicating altered keratin expression compared to healthy skin.

This case report describes a patient with autoimmune autonomic neuropathy associated with high-titer gAChR antibodies who developed selective pigmented hair loss during IV immunoglobulin treatment.

This article reviews historical uses of the term "lupus" for various skin disorders but provides no new clinical findings.

This study developed a 3D bioprinted skin model to mimic pemphigus vulgaris, providing a tool to study disease mechanisms and test targeted therapies by reproducing the architecture and pathogenic disruptions of native skin.

This study highlights the role of platelets in immune interactions and severe adenovirus infection, noting that activated platelets have a shorter lifespan. Results suggest potential for developing therapies targeting platelet senescence and immunologic mechanisms.

In this case report, the authors concluded that cutaneous lupus erythematosus was induced by the PD-1 inhibitor tislelizumab during treatment for metastatic lung adenocarcinoma, despite initial remission and treatment adjustments.

In this review, researchers explored the multifaceted role of NF-κB signaling in various biological processes and diseases, including its interactions with other pathways, and discussed possible therapeutic approaches targeting this pathway for treating conditions like cancer, autoimmune disorders, and COVID-19.

This article reviews skin toxicity classifications and management in patients undergoing molecularly targeted therapy, noting significant dermatotropic side effects associated with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Inhibitors.

This report describes a case of juvenile Rhupus syndrome in an 11-year-old girl, emphasizing the condition's rarity and the diagnostic challenges due to overlapping symptoms of juvenile idiopathic arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus.

This case report describes a patient who developed drug-induced lupus erythematosus after treatment with a monoclonal antibody combination against the SARS-CoV-2 surface protein, highlighting the need for careful follow-up.

This study described the clinical and pathologic characteristics of patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus, noting that chronic cutaneous lupus was most common, with photosensitivity as a prevalent symptom.

This study observed that levothyroxine therapy in men with autoimmune hypothyroidism was less effective at reducing thyroid antibodies and hormone disruptions in those with early-onset androgenetic alopecia compared to those without hair loss.

This study found that bullous lupus erythematosus lesions in cutaneous lupus erythematosus showed distinctive histopathology with neutrophilic predominance and were associated with severe disease and higher extracutaneous involvement.
