research A Synoptic Overview on Autoimmune Disorders and Its Management
Autoimmune diseases cause the immune system to attack the body, and management varies as some are curable and others are not.
research A Synoptic Overview on Autoimmune Disorders and Its Management
Autoimmune diseases cause the immune system to attack the body, and management varies as some are curable and others are not.
research Alopecia Areata Is Characterized by Dysregulation in Systemic Type 17 and Type 2 Cytokines, Which May Contribute to Disease-Associated Psychological Morbidity
Alopecia areata involves immune system imbalances that may lead to depression and anxiety.
research Regulation of the Wound Healing Response During Aging
Aging slows wound healing due to weaker cells and immune response.
research Immunopathology of the Human Hair Follicle
The document concludes that immune system abnormalities cause alopecia areata, but the exact process is still not completely understood.
research T-Cell Induced-Self MHC Class I/Peptide Complexes May Enable De Novo Tolerance Induction to Neo-Antigens Occurring Outside of the Thymus
Hair follicles may help teach the immune system to tolerate new self-antigens, but this can sometimes cause hair loss.
research Steroid Sulfatase: Molecular Biology, Regulation, and Inhibition
The enzyme steroid sulfatase is linked to breast cancer and other conditions, and inhibitors are being developed for treatment.
research Hair Follicle Immune Privilege and Its Collapse in Alopecia Areata
Hair follicles are normally protected from the immune system, but when this protection fails, it can cause hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Indications for a Brain-Hair Follicle Axis: Inhibition of Keratinocyte Proliferation and Up-Regulation of Keratinocyte Apoptosis in Telogen Hair Follicles by Stress and Substance P
Stress can cause hair loss by negatively affecting hair follicles and this effect might be reversed with specific treatments.
research Unraveling the Link Between Ectodermal Disorders and Primary Immunodeficiencies
Skin abnormalities can indicate immunodeficiency due to shared origins with the immune system.
research The Coenzyme A Precursor Pantethine Enhances Antitumor Immunity in Sarcoma
Pantethine may boost the immune system's ability to fight sarcoma.
research Innate Immunity and the Regulation and Mobilization of Keratinocyte Stem Cells: Are the Old Players Playing a New Game?
Innate immunity genes in hair follicle stem cells might have new roles beyond traditional immune functions.
research Extra Virgin Olive Oil as Nutritional Therapeutic Immune Enhancer
Extra virgin olive oil may boost the immune system and help fight infections like COVID-19.
research Immune Signatures of Psoriasis: Comparison of Genetic Expression Profiles in Psoriasis Patients After Therapy with Biologic Agents
Treatment with biologic agents can significantly improve psoriasis symptoms, and blood biomarkers could potentially predict individual patient's response to treatment.
research Alopecia Areata Patients Show Deficiency of FOXP3+CD39+ T Regulatory Cells and Clonotypic Restriction of Treg TCRβ-Chain, Highlighting the Immunopathological Aspect of the Disease
Patients with Alopecia areata have fewer specific immune cells that normally regulate the immune system, which may contribute to the condition.
research Hormonal Regulation in Male Androgenetic Alopecia: Sex Hormones and Beyond - Evidence from Recent Genetic Studies
Hormones and genes affect hair growth and male baldness.
research Sparse Haplotype-Based Fine-Scale Local Ancestry Inference at Scale Reveals Recent Selection on Immune Responses
Recent selection on immune response genes was identified across seven ethnicities.
research The Role of ATP-Sensitive Inward Rectifier Potassium Channels in the Regulation of Reactive Oxygen Species in the Western Honey Bee, Apis Mellifera L.
Activating certain potassium channels in honey bees can lower antioxidant levels and reduce death rates during heavy mite infestations, potentially aiding their immune response.
research Molecular Mechanisms of Viral Oncogenesis in Humans
Some viruses can cause cancer by changing cell processes and avoiding the immune system; vaccines and targeted treatments help reduce these cancers.
research Foxp3 Post-Translational Modifications and Treg Suppressive Activity
Changes to the Foxp3 protein affect how well regulatory T cells can control the immune system, which could help treat immune diseases and cancer.
research Clinical Development of Topoisomerase-Interactive Drugs
New drugs targeting DNA enzymes show promise for cancer treatment but have side effects like immune system suppression and hair loss.
research Stress, Hair Growth Control, and the Neuro-Endocrine-Immune Connection
Stress may affect hair growth by influencing hair follicle development and could contribute to hair loss.
research Identification of a Cyclosporine-Specific P450 Hydroxylase Gene Through Targeted Cytochrome P450 Complement Disruption in Sebekia Benihana
A gene in Sebekia benihana, CYP-sb21, is needed for a specific reaction on the drug Cyclosporine A, which could be important for hair growth without affecting the immune system.
research Regulatory T-Cells: Potential Regulator of Tissue Repair and Regeneration
Regulatory T-cells are important for healing and regenerating tissues in various organs by controlling immune responses and aiding stem cells.
research Recent Advances in the Pathogenesis of Autoimmune Hair Loss Disease Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is caused by immune system attacks on hair follicles, often triggered by viral infections.
research Transcriptional Profiling in Alopecia Areata Defines Immune and Cell Cycle Control Related Genes Within Disease-Specific Signatures
The study found that immune responses disrupt hair growth cycles, causing hair loss in alopecia areata.
