Biofibre hair implants are safe, well-tolerated, and provide immediate cosmetic improvement for hair loss.
research Progressive and Destructive Hair Follicle Infections in a Murine Cutaneous Anthrax Model
Anthrax bacteria can infect and destroy hair follicles in mice, but the immune system eventually clears the infection.
research Abstracts
Get head MRI for babies with achondroplasia early, use free immunoglobulin light chains to detect certain neurodevelopmental disorders, and video calls work for speech therapy in patients with facial anomalies.
research Diffuse Lichen Planopilaris Masquerading as Diffuse Alopecia Areata
A woman's hair loss was misdiagnosed as alopecia areata but was actually lichen planopilaris, needing immediate and ongoing treatment.
research A Comparative Study of Histopathologic Features in Alopecia Areata and Pattern Hair Loss
The study found certain scalp biopsy features can help tell apart alopecia areata from pattern hair loss even when typical immune cells are not seen.
research Comparative Analysis of mRNA and miRNA Expression Between Dermal Papilla Cells and Hair Matrix Cells of Hair Follicles in Yak
Different genes and pathways are active in yak skin and hair cells, affecting hair growth and immune responses.
research Response to Letter Regarding Androgen Receptor PolyQ Alleles and COVID-19
The authors maintain that shorter androgen receptor alleles may lead to milder COVID-19 by positively affecting the immune response, not due to changes in testosterone levels or activity.
research Alopecia Areata: Multifactorial Disease Involving Genetic, Environmental, and Autoimmune Factors
Alopecia areata is a complex condition causing hair loss, linked to genetics and immune system issues, and may be related to other autoimmune diseases; treatments vary in effectiveness.
research Clinical Patterns of Cutaneous and Mucosal Lesions in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Skin problems are common and early signs of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, and certain immune system markers are important for diagnosis and treatment.
