Retinol may affect immune responses in people with frequent skin boils.

Alopecia areata patients have higher levels of certain immune receptors, suggesting new treatment possibilities.

Hormones significantly affect hair and oil gland function in the skin, and more research is needed on skin-related hormone disorders.

COVID-19 and hypopituitarism (reduced pituitary gland function) are linked, with the latter's related health issues potentially worsening COVID-19 outcomes, and COVID-19 possibly increasing risk for pituitary complications.

The cornified envelope is crucial for skin's barrier function and involves key proteins and genetic factors.

Low-dose radiation therapy may improve brain function in some Alzheimer's patients and is generally well-tolerated.

Alopecia areata is a hair loss condition caused by immune factors and can be treated with JAK inhibitors.

Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.

Tumor suppressors help control inflammation in cancer and restoring their function could lead to new treatments.

Some growth factors, while important for normal body functions, can cause diseases when not regulated properly.

SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, can affect all endocrine organs and systems, altering their function and potentially leading to disorders. Factors like diabetes and obesity increase infection risk and severity. Understanding these effects is key for effective treatment.

Antroquinonol may help prevent skin depigmentation by suppressing certain immune cells.

Down Syndrome patients with Alopecia Areata often have hypothyroidism and specific immune abnormalities.

Uncombable hair syndrome causes frizzy hair and can affect the nervous system, eyes, and ears, often co-occurring with other hair, skin, nail, and teeth conditions, and is linked to three specific gene mutations.
